Installing a Microwave

[WhiteChocolate]

Has anyone ever had a guy in to fix something or install something who hasn't been critical of the job their predecessor did?

I think that's par for the course in the trades. They always seem to feel the need to prove how much they know. I had a plumber criticize the installation if some valves in an old shower that had lasted 50 years. I think the guy who put it in knew what he was doing.

that is a very good point

then again, i look at some of the crap work I produce on the job, and I would imagine other professionals would question some of my decisions.

Never. It's on Page 1 of the contractor's/handyman's/repairman's handbook.

These two do it all the time.

People do it in every job, I work with Art Director's that complain about how clean the design files they get. Or writers, complain about a manuscript they are updating.

Lots of people operate based on a principle of scarcity - in order to be the best, they must trash other people. Or you can just kickass at what you do.

Really a great point.
