I'm getting slammed on social media for being an "investor"

I know this has been addressed but somehow it is different when it is me ! I had a plumber come out to give me a quote on replacing two pvc pipes...he did not tell me when he was coming just texted me he was there and I said I would be there in 15 minutes...it took 25 in which time he called me to demand where I was...at the house he didn't even look at anything just said it would be $10,000 ...if he didn't want the job he should have just said so...I posted on a local group about my experience with him and all his buddies are slamming me for being an investor and trying to "cheap" out...and all investors try to do that to hard working guys blah blah...I will put $30,000 into this house ...using painters and AC guys and electricians etc...plus I took a house that had been empty for 2 years and I will make it into a nice safe home for a family...I bet none of the folks slamming me for being an evil investor add any jobs to the economy or bring houses back to help the neighborhood...why are folks so mad at us...
