Installing Engineering

My wife ordered these curtains. He came over and installed them. The price was reasonable. What I liked about him is the company that we got the curtain from, it was a measurement issue, so I don't know whether or not that we measured it wrong or the company sent it wrong, but he took initiative to call the company and let them know that the panel that they sent was the wrong size. He gave them the exact measurements. I mean, he didn't have to do that. So when we arrived, we found a note saying that he installed everything. He said you're going to see that the middle panel doesn't look right and it's because the measurement is off, and that he already called the company They were waiting for us to verify his information and arrange when they could ship replacement parts. He was here on time. It was clean when we got home. There was no tools hanging around, and he let us know that one of the panels didn't fit and gave the inventor the right measurement, so saved me some time. It's funny, at first I'm like $300 that's very expensive just to hang up some curtains. But when I saw what was involved, because my wife said, oh we can do this ourselves, that would have took us a month. Those mosquito curtains are a lot different from regular curtains, so what you have to do is you have to measure the panel, and then every certain amount of feet you have to drill a hole, and then you have to drill in these snaps, and then the snaps on the curtain have to snap into what you just drilled, and it's like you're doing that every maybe two inches, because you need to make it so the mossquitos can't come through, so you're talking about a panel going down, there's three panels going down and one across, so it was like 75 feet, 85 feet, 75 feet and then 72 feet, so imagine doing that every two inches. That's tedious! That a lot of work. You only charge $300? I'm like, cool! I didn't even ask him was this right, I was like sure, OK, here's a check! You need a hacksaw to mesh up the panels and all this other stuff. He's a professional. It took him five hours to do it, so imagine me and my wife trying to do it. The curtain would have been all uneven and the mosquitos would have been laughing at us; look what they're trying to do, we're still coming through. My wife's going to use them to hang some curtains inside.
