“I really like working at your house,” the contractor says. “You are nice. I’m also working at another house and I don’t like it half as much. This is why I’m not coming to your house tomorrow.”
“Why is that?” I ask.
“I’m planning to do some serious drinking with a buddy of mine tonight, and I won’t be in a good condition tomorrow. So I’ll just go work for those other people.”

Is it awful that this totally made my day? Ah, Schadenfreude.

No, of course not. 🙂 I’m using this free day to go I a spa, so everybody is happy. 🙂

Oh, I meant my Schadenfreude was that the not-so-nice people would be getting passively-aggressively bamboozled by contractor.
It’s even better that you get a spa day!
