Yeah. We originally wanted to go to KW for the selection because we didn’t know what we wanted, and they offered a fancy “granite-like” edge that made the laminate look good. Well we know what we want now and just ended up with a single 45\* bevel on the edge. KW’s only open till 5pm tonight. If things don’t change drastically I’m going there tomorrow night to have a heart to heart with the salesman, then doc20th will get a call. ---

Yeah, the price was a bit higher and the selection a bit more limited. Sucks that they close early tonight. Oh well. They get an extra day to make things right. ---

Lady from Gary’s (company that’s making my countertop) called and scheduled for Friday. She said it might still take a couple of weeks after that. She said 5-6 weeks is more typical. So either the salesman was jerking me off when he said 2-3 weeks or the lady at Gary’s is jerking me off now. Still tempted to call it off because Kitchen World can eat a bag of dicks, but it might just make more hassle for me. ---

A salesman over promising and under-delivering when you paid in full without receiving anything? Un-fucking-possible. ---

If you ever consider building a house, multiply this story x 1000. The residential contracting world is terrible. I am used to customers and vendors that do what they say they are going to do. House builders are just BS artists that know how to swing a hammer. ---
