The unthinkable has been thunk. Chris from Jayman, my masked crusader who would certainly bring death to all who oppose me, has let me down. He called last night (at 6:30, HULK ….MAD!) to inform me that our possession date has been pushed back to July 15. Lucky for him I was out at the time so my rage was not unleashed in his direction. I’m pretty sure my wife survived the brunt of it, perhaps I should buy her something pretty today…

Anyhow, I did some quick math and realized that we were given our June 30 possession date May 6. That means that in 40 days Jayman managed to fall 15 days behind schedule. To my mind that means they did a little more than half of the work that would have been necessary to meet their deadline. That is a poor show.

Strangely I’m less filled with rage, and more disappointed. HULK ….SAD! (At this point a single tear runs down my cheek.) We’re going to try and get Bayhood to extend our lease one more month, hopefully they haven’t found new tenants yet. Jayman has to pay for a hotel and meal expenses, as well as storage for all of our stuff. I figure that a hotel is about $80 per night, storage will be about $150 for a month, and meals will be about $100 per day. That adds up to $2,850 for the 15 days we’re left homeless. I’m going to try and extend our lease so that we can pay $800 for rent, and use the rest to hire movers. That way I don’t miss more work.

We’ll see how that goes.
