Description of Work: I called for an estime to have some work done. When I explained the job it sounded as if he did not want to do the work but was grudgingly willing to come and look. When I described where I lived, he told me he had an old car the could not get up the hills to my house.

Response from ODDJOB ROB
My sincere apologies to the caller. It sounded to me like a job that I was unqualified to do. Also, he lives in a remote part of the Oakland hills that I have had trouble ascending to in the past. What he really needs is someone who's better equipped and better qualified than myself. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
