Not to disagree, but once the price on the contract is set and a mistake is either covered by you or them, I think you've entered the realm of a "low-trust environment" which is addressed by the author.
- maccard 9y ago> but once the price on the contract is set and a mistake is either covered by you or them, In my experience dealing with tradesmen, it's very rare to get a full price up front.
- nsb1 9y agoI think that just furthers my argument - mistakes get made all the time since we're all humans around here as far as I know. I honestly don't have any problem with people ( tradesmen or otherwise ) making mistakes as long as they own up to them and/or fix them. To say that "once a mistake has been made and a solution negotiated, we're now in a low-trust environment" flies in the face of "Always approach people with optimism".
