I was always under the impression that a builder was the main contractor and the guy who brought in the different trades, he was also the guy who has the money to start the job ,and pay the trades regardless to him being paid by the client. Well ,stopped off at a garage to get a cup of coffee last week ,it was early 630am so had plenty of time before heading to the job. A guy rolls up in a landcruiser and asks could i get him a plasterer , i said when , he said now , anyway in the heel of the hunt i talked about money and put the other job off till the following morning,we went and did what he needed doing. He then asked me to do another job in a hurry ,I agreed and it was done a couple of days later.Now this guy cried about been owed money ,fom the minute I met him till I got my money , he couldnt pay me for two weeks because the client hadnt paid him . a COMPLETE IDOT. lots of work on and no money.It seems this is becoming an all too familiar situation in Dublin ." The crying game"
