Hired someone to take over mowing this year. I spent more time maintaining the tractor, push mower, and string trimmer than anything else outdoors last year. It was worth the money to get that time back.
- First week they ran over a sprinkler head.
- Second week they no-showed.
- Third week they get the big metal cover for the sewer clean out stand pipe and busted it into 3 pieces.
This year I fired the gardener after 1 day because he tried to upcharge me after the fact.
People/contractors are POS.

I am beginning to think the Brita water thing here is tearing up my mouth, etc. I didn't start getting acid reflux until I started here and my mouth is always burnt to a crisp (like I burn my mouth every other day on a TV dinner sensation) metallic taste is there as well... that and they keep cleaning out the contraption with bleach...
