My parents ordered one of those carport things that you see for $695. The people were supposed to come on a certain day to put it up but came the evening before. My dad was down in the bottoms with a guy who was doing dozer work and my mom left the workers to go down there and get him. My dad came up and checked in with them then went back to the dozer work. My mom sat on the porch of the house which is some distance away and watched the guys. She said at one point she saw one of them come out running from one of the buildings down there holding onto his side like he had something under his shirt. She went down there and started looking in that building and in the back of their truck. She couldn't see in the cab of the truck because of tinted windows. She saw in the building where there were nails that normally have something on them that were now bare but can't remember what was there. Only one of the guys spoke English so she didn't want to try and ask them about it.
It didn't take them long to put that building up and they left. She told my dad about what happened and they went down to check things out. Not only had they been in that building but another as well. Parents had a boat down there that had a cover on it. The workers cut the ties to the cover and got one tied back but not like my dad ties and the other they could not get tied back since it was too tight.
We think they will be back, hopefully not but they might try. It will not be pretty if my dad catches them.
So if you have workers that you don't know and trust, stand there and watch them. Don't leave them alone at all.
