...so why only send one man?! :angry:

Just had our gates delivered for the side of the house, because it's windy apparently the bloke said he can't do any more than put them on the lawn unless I could help lift them. Ahem, baby bump, dont think I'll be lifting anything?!

So he said "It's a two man job you see" to which I replied "So why have they only sent one bloke?"

I mean do they really expect a heavily pregnant woman to be lifting fence panels that are also wet and dirty cos of the weather?

Bunch of muppets :angry:

OK rant over! :blushing:

Do you know, when I looked at him I thought "Bet he thinks I'm a whingeing pom" :nosepicker:

Malc is fitting them himself. TBH I wish we'd just spent an extra $600 and got the fencing company to just fit some, much less hassle!

I have phoned them to complain.

They dont give a stuff! :no:

Basically she said there's nothing they can do, they only send one man cos usually there's someone at the other end to help, which I said is ridiculous.

FFS dont they know most blokes are out at work during the day? It's only the fact I work from home that I'm even here.

I'm quite cross about this especially their lack of understanding. :angry:

Shan't ever shop there again! :no:

If you have to contact them again, tell them you will never use them again, ask if they really expect a pregnant woman to lift such stuff oh and tell them you know lots of people moving to the area and you will recommend that they don't use that company when they come to build their own home. Hit them where it hurts - the bank balance :rolleyes:
