That’s fine as long as 1) the owner says it’s okay to use their lawn, 2) they keep off everyone else’s lawn, 3) they don’t get in the way of traffic on the street, 4) they get the work on the roof done in a timely manner. Otherwise, it’s a bad image for the company. They are hired to work. Like everyone else. Don’t tell me they need the exercise because they are sitting around all day. And Batterbee is among the most expensive roofers in TV.

Actually, I find it perfectly appropriate to call out the company. They are responsible for the behavior of their employees. But, that said, if the chaps played around without being a nuisance to the others in the neighborhood, then I look at it like when kids play street hockey. They can have fun.

Ambivalent feelings you say? I am ambivalent about their citizenship. Maybe they will self-deport. With AI and robotics in a couple of years complete houses will be made on assembly lines by robotic arms. And then transported to a location to be snapped together. Fewer people will have jobs in the future because they just won't be needed.

and one of the best

Send them to the camps........put on your own damn shingles.
They have brown skin....they must be illegal.

I have seen potholes in the residential streets go un-patched for several months. And low oak tree limbs overhanging streets and truck roofs hitting it. I have seen unleashed large dogs roaming around a neighborhood. I have seen golf cart going by at 40 MPH. If you actually live in The Villages, you can find some imperfections.

The US had its biggest immigration (legal) period recently about 2010. I think that we have too many people in the US for the purpose of keeping worker wages and UNIONS down. I think that there needs to be a calculation to determine the OPTIMAL US population considering factors like traffic and school and hospital overcrowding. Note schools are overcrowded. Farm crop harvests are decreasing due to lower soil fertility due to over-farming. Then there is the ILLEGAL immigration problem - 11 to 20 MILLION.
..........I don't care if they are blacks, browns, blues, yellows, or white. I am talking numbers - that are NOT right.

I’m not questioning this, but does one get a discount from the property insurance companies or an extension on how long they’ll let a roof be considered insurable because it was put on by Batterbee or some other premium roofer? I don’t know the answer but perhaps others might.
