You couldn't trust this guy to save your life
Let me tell you a little story about the kind of guy Corey Bowers is. He's the kind of guy that goes to a store to have some work done. Doesn't like the price because you know he's a "big guy in the community". So being the nice associate dealing with him, you cut him a deal, literally the best deal you could without losing money. So Corey writes you a cheque. This cheque bounces, no big deal lets just call Corey, i'm sure being a upstanding member of our community he'll come good for it. He gives you a hope and dream, he'll be in later in the week. A week goes by, Corey never shows up. Suddenly his cell phone only goes to voicemail. You finally hide the phone number, he finally answers. Makes the same promises. Couple weeks go by, the sales associate is then informed that the bounced cheque comes out of his paycheck because of a company policy. No big deal, again Corey is a super member of the community so you call him to tell him that just a few weeks before Christmas this bounced cheque is going to come out of his paycheck, so Corey promises he wouldn't do that to anybody and he'll be in right away to pay. Only thing is, he never comes in, never answers his cell phone when you call, won't answer his phone number. If this is the sort of trustworthy, upstanding community member of the community you would like to have at your home to do some work, then by all means hire him, just for the love of god don't accept a cheque for any reason from him.
