Ain't nobody taking advantage of me!!

Betcha they don't get the others again, either.

BTW, my son was telling me that a guy he works with got stung in Jacksonville by not knowing the law. If you contract to have a job done (his friend's was a new roof), do not let anyone offload the materials at your house without making sure they give you a bill of sale showing that the contractor has paid for the materials. If they contractor fails to pay the supplier for the materials, YOU have to pay or you can get a lien placed against your house by the supplier. That's what happened to the guy in Jax. Always get a copy of the paid material bill at the time of delivery to your house BEFORE they unload. If they don't have proof that the materials have been paid for, tell them to take them back until you can see proof.
