Looking for a better alternative
My least favorite service vendor to work with is someone who takes days to respond to emails, takes weeks to provide estimates, is late to appointments, and will reschedule at the last minute. The only reason I don’t fire them is that their responsibilities are just one part of a greater scope of work that is done well at a good price. I know because I seek out bids for the same work every year.
I have concluded that I’m better off staying with this vendor for the time being, despite the poor experience.
Will I replace them as soon as I find a better alternative? Absolutely. Would I recommend them to others? Never. But for now, it’s in my best interest to put up with some poor communication and unreliability because I don’t have a better alternative.
This same approach can apply for jobs, too.
