So I sent my nasty Jayman letter yesterday at lunch. I went on the website and grabbed three random email addresses and just kind of fired it off. At 5:15pm I got a call from Chris, the GM of Jayman Masterbuilt Edmonton, who promised to look into it personally, and call me back today between 3 and 5. How my email found him is beyond me, but I’m glad that it did.I’m not sure how to handle this. I was a ball of rage and fury, masked by cold civility and veiled sarcasm, but this leaves me in limbo. My rage stands on hold, ready to be unleashed, yet the faint hope of someone ‘making things right’ has stopped me cold in my tracks. I’m not sure where to go from here, perhaps force mind tricks. “You WILL finish my house on time.” At one point I was asked what Jayman would have to do to regain my trust, I said “finish my house on time, and do it with a little pride.” I think that about sums it up.
I am on stand-by until Chris gets back to me between 3 and 5. I’ll tell you what though, if 5:15 rolls around and I’m still in limbo watch out! The next time you see me will be on the news, during a breaking report of a giant green man wreaking havoc through downtown Edmonton, leaving a trail of death and destruction in his wake. They’ll probably have to call in the military, but we’re Canadian so it will take at least three weeks. By that time I will have completely leveled Edmonton & moved on to Calgary. Or maybe Red Deer, it’s closer, and I’m pretty lazy. Even as The Hulk and running rampant, I still assume that I would be somewhat lazy. It would be more like “lightly jogging” rampant.
It would take a miracle for them to finish my house in 15 days, but Ty and the gang can start from scratch and finish in seven, so I know that it can be done. I bet every home builder in the world hates that show, because now everyone wants their house built in seven days, as opposed to seven months. Hopefully, tonight when I go and visit my house there will be a crew of 200 men working around the clock to get it done. Or siding. I would settle for siding.
