Hi Tim,
I want you to do the job.

email I received yesterday from a great repeat customer....

Thais it, officially on vacation.

They can call me Sally for all I care, as long as they pay and the job is worth it.

I'm on vacation the end of next week. Off to colder climates: the Portland/ Vancouver area.

Hey - highs in the mid eighties this coming week. No humidity either. Can't get much nicer.

Gotta love those repeat customers!

Lucky. I just got back from vacation and start my fun night shifts today. Stayed up all night last night drinking coffee so I would sleep all day today.

My fav's are the ones that say, "we'd like to go with your recommendations".

Taking a vacation during the summer painting season??? You guys aren't real painters are you? ......just joking guys.

I may have taken a 3 day weekend occasionally, but never recall anything more than that during the summer. (Unfortunately my wife will attest to that.) Maybe that's where I went wrong

That's what I'm saying. I take my vacations in the winter.

I'm waiting for the ultimate:

"We trust your judgment, we'll be away the week of the 25th, the keypad code is 4292, and there's a blank check signed and made out to you on the breakfast table. "

Taking holidays in summer sounds like a healthy painter to me.

On my death bed I can guarantee you I won't be looking at my family thinking, "damn I wish I would have done one more house that summer".

TJ's got it figured out.
