Blech!
1. Aftershave should be banned as environmentally unsafe.
Jeez, he leaned on my counter for two minutes while I assured him we were not hiring and he has to go through a union hall anyway. That was ten minutes ago. I can still smell whatever vile concoction he wallowed in.
2. If you call me to tell me you've left two voicemail messages for a foreman on a remote jobsite , do you really believe that I will (a) have better luck in getting him to pick up the phone than you do or (b) expect me to be able to wave my magic wand and make him call you back?

There was This Undergraduate Male (tm) [he might have turned 18 already ...] walking towards me one morning. I swear he was both preceeded and followed by The Green Haze that was $0.05/gallon aftershave. :-P
Calls to the Foreman
This office is open from 8:30 to 5:00, Monday through Friday.
If you send an e-mail to the least tech-savvy attorney at 5:15 on Friday, he's not going to get back to you before Monday morning.
Even if you leave 4 phone messages for him and his secretary in the interim. *rolls eyes*
Re: Calls to the Foreman
Simple concepts, you'd think. {sigh}
Actually, the person trying to contact the foreman may indeed think you have him on radio, or a pager, or employees going back and forth to the job site or something else that will jab him in the ribs and *make* him pick up his phone. Or they're covering all the bases so that if the foreman calls you, you can say Hey Doofus Check Your Messages.
