What Does your Vehicle say about YOU?

I was at Home Depot yesterday, and parked next to this truck, and could not believe what I saw.   If this was a contractor, is this his mode of working - leaving a HUGE mess?

 

When I hire a contractor, I do look in their vehicle and see "how they live" so to speak, and usually speaks volumes on how they work, and how they leave a home.

 

I cannot imagine what this person looks like.  Sorry the photo is blurry, took it with my cell and quickly, as I did not know who's truck it was, but did not want to get caught taking this photo.   I swear, it looks like they have eaten for at least a month, and all the bags, wrappers, etc. are in the front seat.   GROSS!!!   If I had more time, it would have been interesting to see WHO drove that truck!

Lisa, have heard that too, and know a few REALTORS that have REALLY messy desks.

Elizabeth, my current contractor takes very good care of his truck, and values his appearance to neighbors maybe wanting his business.

Oh my goodness, kind of reflects poorly. However, I understand how some of these guys eat on the run - literally. Still, if he doesn't dispose of the litter, he's going to get mice inside the van. That'll be fun. ;)

That certainly is a messy truck, I don't see why it would be so difficult to at least throw away the trash when they get home.

I agree with you Joan. How people treat their own belongings, car, house, clothing, body, is reflective of how they treat everything.  If they don't respect their own things they surely won't respect YOUR things.  Thanks for the post.

Hi Joan- I'm laughing because that's pretty much what my husband's car looked like when he first began building homes. And while his car looked like that, he was a stickler when it came down to the quality he expected from his contractors.

Hello Joan --- your post certainly is a "food for thought " in many different aspects.

Debb, I was thinking mice and bugs too.   It only takes a minute to throw away trash when you return home.

Jerry, I agree to an extent with you.  Had a contractor for my master, his truck was a disaster, and found he threw his dirty coat on my bed and has just had my comforter dry cleaned.

Evelina Tsigelnitskaya my car is usually spotless too, just in case I have a new client.  Would be SO embarrassed with this mess!
