Too many hands in the pot.

Recently , I was on a project involving a patio, pond and back yard landscaping. Almost finished,and a neighbor from down the street walked up ,curious as to what we were doing. I invited him to see the back yard. As we walked towards the back yard ,He talked about how ,he had just finished an 8 month project in his own yard. He went on to say that he was happy with the outcome,but the process had been a nightmare, finding all the sub contractors, was hard enough he told me, but getting them out to the site and working together in a schedule seemed impossible . He had troubles getting them to work together, and around each others other jobs.Some of them ,he said he had to replace,because they didn’t even show up to work.His story went on for a few minutes then as we walked around the corner of the house, He stopped talking, and just looked at the yard ,we had been working on for the last three weeks. He saw the Beautiful waterfall,and pond,a completely finished paver, patio and cover, along with a completely landscaped yard. The only thing being done was a couple of guys doing a final clean up. He asked how I had been able to get all the other contractors to work this quickly, with such a great outcome. I smiled ,and told him . We do it all ourselves.
