Yep, I hear that.

Back in the 60s, I had two new houses built in San Jose. They happened to be on my way to work, so, I would stop by after work to check on the progress.

After a few stops, I couldn't stop by anymore, because I couldn't stand to see the shoddy workmanship ......

So, the 3rd house I had built, I just stopped by when they were laying the foundation, to make sure they had the right lot and the right floor plan. After that, I didn't stop by until it was almost completed.
