Babel

"The plans are not ambiguous.
It clearly states the measurements
in several elevations, and the facings to be used."

"I’ve heard all the complaints about suppliers,
we’ve been through that a dozen times.
It’s your responsibility by contract,

                                                                  "Fine. Comply
and make good now or under penalty."

"That’s up to you. Just get the job in hand."

"What do you mean, You just don’t understand?"
