Do you know, I had protestors completely kill one great job I won back a few years ago.

The job was tearing down the old court house--built in 1896 and a real fire trap. Then the hysterical preservation folks said it was historic, got an injunction to stop the job on the first day, and it was all downhill from there.

One trick I learned is to punch a few holes in the corner of the buildings with the excavator bucket right away when starting the job. That way, if the hysterical preservation people come, suddenly the building is structurally unsound and cannot be saved. LOL.

Another trick is to strip off all the decoration from the front of the building with the teeth on the excavator bucket. That way, the stuff they like about the building is gone right away.

Mean tricks, but hey, gotta protect the right to demo.
