1. i will respect you in the morning.
2. the check is in the mail.

3. i am an honest craftsman.

probably a good call since i are one of those uppity clients who
actually knows how to read and not only read but i are an engineer,
b.s.e.e, univeristy of illinois urbana-champaign, illinois, so i also
understand what i read.

again probably true since i are able to read the building codes and nfpa
codes and yes god forbid i understand them. yes sir, you sure do not
want an uppity client telling you you are wrong and be able to point to
chapter and verse in the codes to prove it. no sir definitely cannot
have that happen. i mean pretty soon all the clients might start reading
and a quoteing and all those honest plumbers might actually have to
learn to read themselves.
