Contractors, they crack me up!

[Lee Smith]

So I met with a prospective contractor today. Seemed like a decent guy, seemed like he knew his stuff... So I asked him for references and pictures of his work... 

Just for reference: I am in Indianapolis, IN....

So he sends me some pictures.. They look pretty decent! I google them. Turns out 1 of his pictures came from a company out of Vancouver, BC, and the other picture came from a different company out of Texas....  For reference, you can go to images.google.com and upload a picture and it will show you every where the picture has been posted on the internet.

So just for giggles I put his references phone numbers into Facebook. One reference showed up as his girlfriend(lots of pictures of the contractor smooching on her), and the other showed up as a friend of his family. I can tell that on the latter, because there was 4+ other people who were friends of this reference with the same last name... For reference: You can put in a phone number on the Facebook search textbox, and if the person has linked their phone to their facebook, they will show up... I also sometimes google the phone numbers to see what shows up as well...

So needless to say this guy will NOT be doing any work for me....
