Sometimes I love it. Most of my projects are exciting, I am paid well, and I love working with my employees and coworkers but every once in a while I have a run in with someone who makes me question the time and dedication I put into it and the place I work at. I left today never wanting to go back. I hope I feel different on Monday but right now I have no interested in working one second past 40 hours instead of the normal 50+ hours I put it. Really, they lose so fuck it. Maybe I should just start looking. I got a lot to offer...

Hi Paul, Keith tells me everything is done and looking great! If you concur, would like to collect balance owed of $6,750.00. Thanks for your business!

My response:

I would have appreciated a final walk-through. I have never had any other work done where the contractor did not have a final walk-through. Maybe they would have caught some of these glaringly obvious issues. Or maybe thats why they didn't do one because the issues existed as demonstrated by the photos below.

For example, the supposed to be rain shower that is now just a leaky cap in my ceiling and the other showerheads are leaking from the bolt where they are connected to the arm on the shower wall. Did no one test them?

These are such obvious oversights that it terrifies me to think whatever less obvious things were overlooked.

Additionally:

1. The door trim is over the position of the light.
2. The window does not fit in the wall and sits above it almost an inch.
3. A piece of floor board in the adjoining bedroom is missing. It was there before they started. Do your guys know where the floor board is?
4. They scratched the crap out of my branch new $1600 dresser. Its frustrating because this happened when they put debris up there and then must have tried to clean it up yesterday by wiping rock debris on the wood. i

I am checking on the repair cost of these today or tomorrow.

I will gladly pay you once you rectify these issues or if you give me a written signed letter stating these issues will be rectified.
Paul

I cannot believe I have a 7am meeting where I meet the CEO for the first time. Why 7am? Who knew 6am was dark.

You obviously could just connect the mac computers together via ssh if they were reachable from each other. In this case they are not and there is a linux comp in between. between the client mac and the target mac. Tunneling screen sharing over ssh also makes it secure.

From your terminal on the mac you will be connecting from. I was missing this part before and therefore it was not working.

sudo defaults write com.apple.ScreenSharing skipLocalAddressCheck -boolean YES

From client mac connect to linux server and map your port 6900 to its 5900. Really you could use any ports you want just make sure that you use them in the next command too.
ssh -p 22 -L 6900:127.0.0.1:5900 user@linuxserver

From linux server connect to target mac that you want to view mapping its port 5900 to the mac port 5900. The first port is whatever the second port was above. The last 5900 needs to be that as the mac runs its dekstop screen sharing over port 5900.

ssh -L 5900:127.0.0.1:5900 user@targetmac

From there mac you want to view the other mac on, open the finder's menu and select go - connect to server.

enter address as your localhost and whatever port you chose as the first one in the first ssh command

vnc://127.0.0.1:6900

hit connect

login with the account for the targetmac

from view menu select the display you want to view. From there you should see and be able to control the target mac.
