oh buddy it so does ,ive been biting my tongue for sooooo long, been chatting with the contractor and we are both on the same page about what they want and what i want.....they are a very big company and they dont want alcohol or drugs anywhere near their site and lets face it i dont want to work for someone like that or be affliated with anyone like that, so the company and i have been chatting privately and today we made the decision to let "my boss" go and we will now start a project for them tomorrw.

they wanted him gone so bad that they went and bought me and my partner all new equipment( around 4grand) and said we can pay it off over time.

now without the middle man taking his drinking cut i have a pay raise and new equipment plus me and my roomate bought a truck to keep with the spirits of "professional"

Oh my goodness, what a terrible story (for the ex. boss). Good for you though! It sounds like you have a great opportunity for expansion with this contractor company. Good luck!
