Seems everyone was happy with Joe but I'm not that lucky.
He got mad because I was trying to pay him.
I might be wrong with certain days but this sequence is what happened:
Day 1: Thursday when i found Joe on yelp and messaged him, he consistently responded quickly, we met and inspected the pool, everything went along well, was making the contract, he told me he need one month payment upfront, but I didn't bring my checkbook, then he said he will invoice me when he gets back. he also said he was going to do come back on Friday. So I messaged Joe with my email address at almost late night, I was a bit concerned if I made it too late.
Day 2: Friday, no response, no invoice. no show
Day 3: I tried to call but no answer
Day 4: I have a travel plan in less than a month so I needed to secure a contract to take care of the pool quickly, I was a bit worried if anything had gone wrong, so my wife called, yet he picked up as that was a strange number, he told us not to worry and will get back to us in the evening, but nothing happened
Day 6: tried to call again, hung up, my wife tried and was answered, and said he was going to come the next day.
The Next Day: maybe I was too eager but, I simply wanted to be sure before I go to travel, I got ignored ever after the first conversation, what should I know? so I called, also tried to ask if I need to present as that would be the first service. hung up. I tried with another number , picked up!
but he's mad after finding out that it's me, he said that I called him too much, in spite that he ceased to answer all of them intentionally. then I tried to explain to him that I simply wanted to make sure I pay him because he said he needs the payment upfront. then he "doesn't want to work with me because I made too many calls".
Well, I was going to tell him that I won't be able to call him soon later as I will travel for a long time. read more
