swingchickieseriously, am i crazy for feeling put off by this?:
this morning, i called the company we've hired to rip up and re-pave our driveway. i sent them a $2000 deposit by check 2 weeks ago, and have been waiting for a call to schedule our appointment, so i figured i'd call in case they never got the check. here was the conversation:
woman: yep, we received it last week, we're depositing it today.
me: oh good, then when will you be coming out to do the work?
woman: R (the head guy) will call you in a few weeks to schedule.
me: but you're cashing my check today?
woman: yep, we're really backed up with all the rain we've had so we need to get through some of that first before we schedule new appointments.
me: but you're cashing my check today? i'm not sure i feel comfortable with that when i don't have an appointment set.
woman: *completely shocked tone* well, let me take down your number and R will call you when he gets a chance.
am i nuts for thinking they should wait to deposit my check until they've at least scheduled the work?
