This long, long, rambling rant has been edited down to its basic elements, so as not to waste anyone's time. Here is the pared-down version:
I recommended a couple of buddies to do a job with me, and they've been dragging their feet a little on it, because they haven't been drinking enough coffee. I'm pretty disturbed, because we have to complete the job very quickly. Grrrr!! Argh!!!! Anguish!!!!!! Anyone have any input?

You know, some people tell me I take work too seriously, that I let myself get worried too easily, and....I don't know. There's certainly things that are more serious than some short term job, I guess......maybe I should chill out this evening and watch Guilala...........

Thanks...we might rescue this situation yet, and we might not, but I appreciate your empathy.
Postcript. OH GOOD! This rant allowed the Universe to hear me, and now some people are fixing the problem. Oh thank goodness.

Good deal. As Homer Simpson might say, "See? All I have to do is type on the internet, and everything will get done!" ;D I've been lucky with projects the last few years. Friends & relatives (and former friends, sadly), went the extra mile to help me get my house built, lawn put in, and a basement bathroom & electrical work project since late 2001. My father-in-law & a former friend were tremendously helpful getting the basement potty & electrical work done over a period of about 2 months last year.

Thanks so much...the job is nearly finished, and it's looking pretty good...still an uphill battle in some ways, but finally everyone put their efforts together and started grinding away on it. Like you say, it's good to have friends.

sometimes you just need to boot some head.

Booting some head sounds like a good idea.
