Explaining contractor: Contractor: a worker or firm engaged under a commercial contract rather than an employment contract, now supplying a large share of marketing delivery work. https://ppc.land/contractor/ #Contractor #Marketing #Freelancer #Business #ContractWork

the biggest thing i would say about pressure washing - you need the disk attachment, it helps a bunch in fast work, no lines or streaks
if you get a more commercial pressure washer it likely also helps a ton - you need the right tools, they help a lot

for grout you can try brass brush and comet with bleach but really renting a commercial steam cleaning machine is the softer easier way, generally does a better job #homeowner tools #contractor tools

A #contractor for a portable #toilet company in Northern England attacked an entire family during a #RoadRage incident in #Cheshire and ripped the door handle from their vehicle.
He has been sacked from the toilet company and will be investigated by the #Police - but its worrying someone in a marked work vehicle chooses to commit such a blatant #crime in full view of witnesses and #dashcam - presumably he's not fearing that many consequences (as any #criminal penalty will be relatively light due to no physical injuries occuring)

Now that the repair work is underway, other documents indicate that the same #contractor had—at least initially—not been able to perform one of the most critical parts of its repair job: sealing the gaps between the concrete slabs at the pool’s floor.
Water has leaked out of those gaps for decades, creating a costly problem that #Trump has vowed to fix. But the contractor’s attempts to seal those gaps failed in 2 trials earlier this month…

NEW by me:
A government contractor hired twin brothers who were convicted felons. A year later, it regretted it.

Know that when a trillion-dollar company such as Microsoft hires you as a contractor, it does so to avoid paying long-term benefits and taxes. You're part of the problem. #Microsoft #CorporateGreed #Capitalism #BigTech #Corruption #PayTaxes #Contractor

Good morning. 🐦🐦🐦
21 December 2025
Well, I poured the final phase of my driveway, and what an unpleasant adventure it turned out to be. The demolition went smoothly enough, thanks to a neighbor who needed the old concrete and had a dump truck. Without him, I’m not sure what the contractor would have done—I asked, but never got a coherent answer. The forms went in fine, and up to that point the job seemed on track.
The morning of the pour, though, they still hadn’t installed the reinforcement—no rebar, no wire grid, nothing. I had insisted on rebar and wire supported on proper metal or plastic rebar supports, commonly called chairs. I was hoping for something resembling professional engineering. Instead, the contractor ordered the concrete before the prep work was done, then showed up late, after the first truck had already been waiting more than half an hour. With the clock ticking, he rushed everything.
They dragged in the wire and rebar for the parking pad and threw together a haphazard grid. When I asked about the rebar chairs, he said they didn’t have any. So the pour went ahead with improvised, unstable supports, the rebar sliding around as they tried to hold it off the ground.
The driveway section went similarly, though I allowed wire only. I anticipated poor engineering and compensated by adding fiber to the concrete mix.
I will say the finishing ranged from okay to good—until the end.
The contractor wanted to remove the forms the same day. I told him no, that he needed to wait at least a day, which is best practice. I research the things I’m involved in. He ignored me and removed them, anyway, insisting he “does this all the time” and knows better than anything I could find online.
I paid him and left a terrible Angi review—primarily because he defied my instructions.

As spatial data professionals- indeed as data professionals generally - we have all been in similar situations, either inside or looking in… so VERY relatable!
(note that the “98 minute documentary…” “about the men - and one woman” he mentions was – so very sadly! – a fiction generated for his routine…)
