Yikes! :yikes:
I had a weird one about 4 years ago. A guy called me and asked to do some work in his house that he was building. He told me that he had seen my website and the book that I had written about Setting Tile. He then said so-and-so had recommended me highly. I tried to tell him that #1. I don't have a website #2 I have never written a book, about tile or anything else and #3 I didn't know the person that supposedly had recommeded me.
This guy was one of those types that is "On Transmit " 100% of the time and didn't listen to a word I said. I met him at his house (a mansion!) and he made it clear that he wanted top quality work and was willing to pay for it. I eventually quit trying to convince him that I had no website or book to my credit. :smilewinkgrin: I kept my mouth shut and we did about $30,000 worth of work for him and he was thrilled, paid immediately, and off we went. Go figure.
