I've always been skeptical about Angie's List or any other web based Better Business Bureau wannabe. How about this one, Angie. How well do you *really* vet your reviews and endorsements?
A few years ago a traveling contractor came into the area from Shasta and performed a job. Well, the flake contractor did not pay the benefits (health insurance premiums and pension contributions) for his employees and we had to get a joint check from the general contractor cuz he was such a flake to make the employees whole.
Fast forward about five years. I noticed this same contractor clown was awarded a job at Sonoma State University. He's back. Like a bad penny he keeps turning up. Well, the job went from bad to worse. Both the contractor and the employees were like an episode of Breaking Bad. Boom!!!! Without going into the gory details the contractor began to repeat his same pattern of shorting the employees paychecks and benefits.
I had the responsibility of tallying up the collective shortage from the workers and filing for retribution. The flake contractor, who owes my office money for back pay and benefits on his employees, had the audacity to want me to do his brief for him. Wow. Really?
In collecting factual information for the hearing I came across the contractor's information on the web stating that he was "Angie's List" certified.
I can't make this stuff up, people. Buyer Beware.
