Here’s an interesting article. It suggests some contractors (usually men) have sought therapy to help them deal with the “rage, frustration and pain” of customer relations. Tough guys with power tools seeking the help of a shrink? Yes. Just like in every profession there are good ones and bad ones but we tend to only remember the bad ones.
Contractors Can Be People, Too
Since I belong to a profession that also gets a bad rap because of a few nut cases (OK, maybe not so few), I understand the frustration. We’re all judged by the actions of the least competent in our ranks. Because it suggests intelligence and guts, my guess is it’s only the top grade contractors who seek the help of a therapist. The rest just don’t bother show up.
