Looking for price quotes.

Once on landline.

Once on cell. He thinks he's called 2 different surveyors.

Should I give em 2 prices?

Hmmmm

This person obviously does not respect your time. Probably won't respect your fee.?ÿ

I don't publish my cell phone number.?ÿ

Maybe you should answer one of them so he doesn't have to call both numbets.

Don't you luvit when the same guy calls several times and calls you by your name once and by other surveyors names the other times and it is immediately evident that the only thing he heard was you comment about how much.

It has happened so many times in the last 40+ years that when they ask for the wrong name I just say wrong number and hang up.

There once was a time when a herd of strawmen worked under one broker because nobody would sell to the moneyman trying to corner the market. They would call the 4 different local surveyors several times going back and forth with numbers trying to get as little as $25 less than the other surveyor.?ÿ I sent their brokers an invoice for $25 per call and that put an end to all that shenanigans.

I always call both numbers if you don't answer your landline. Some of you impotent people don't ever listen to your messages on your Office machine.

If I wanted to talk to you in a week I'd call you in a week.

I answered both calls. The cell one was kind of a poor connection.

He did not know he had called me 2x.

Sounds like an honest mistake to me.

There would be a danger of getting into a bidding war with yourself.?ÿ

A. If a person puts their cell number on their business card, website, or other form of marketing material it is fair game to call it. And that's the phone most likely to get answered by the person I'm calling.?ÿ

B.?ÿ You are not really calling Nate impotent are you? The man's offspring number in the double digits!?ÿ ?ÿ ?ÿ?ÿ

Impotent = important. You have to inflect a little humor with some of these Surveyors.

My Uncle Herb started wearing suits everyday. We asked him why? He said " The Doctor told me I am impotent." "If I'm going to be impotent I'm going to look impotent'. We loved Uncle Herb. He was from Missouri
