I am frustrated.... Paid a guy to finish a chicken house for me and guess what he is not going to do it!! I am out 500!! I am sick b/c I knew better but he came over and CRIED (literally) begging for the full payment b/c he was marrying off his son. DAMN IT. Now I am left with a messed up yard b/c I can't put up the fence and he took down my old fencing. It is embarrassing b/c I should have Known better but I so need that yard done and I guess he saw a easy way to make money. Kinda makes you lose faith. Wish I was strong enough to finish the job but I just don't have the strength any more. Plus I don't have any more money, I counted on him being honest. BTW folks his name is Jimmy Jones and he lives in Covington. I origninally sold him some birds because he thought he could make money from them b/c he is trying to get disability. He said he was going to join our club and get into birds "big time". I suggest if he comes around poor mouthing you RUN!! If he will do this to someone who tried to give him some help lord knows what else he will lie and swindle about.

Timbo It needs the netting on the top, and fencing around the bottom of the porch so I can segregate the colors because he had taken down my fencing I had up. Those are the most needed. I had also paid him to put up wire inside the house to separate the colors which he took down the door and never put up the wire. I am just weiry and disappointed and stressed b/c I am having to keep others inside so they don't mix colors. Ellisfarms-yes I have the pic of cashed check and it does say "chicken house" on it.

Might contact Mr.Lee or Ms.Terry at the brighton high school. FFA students might be looking for volunteer hours.
