4 Lifeguard Stands at the Beach for guess how much? - GoFuckYourself.com

KRL · 10-13-2004, 07:04 PM

Get a load of this crock of shit.

Our local city government just awarded a contract for $218,000 for 4 new lifeguard stands at the beach.

The builder who got the deal said the high cost was due to having a bench and table installed in each of them and having sliding glass doors.

Yeh that's the ticket.

that was my contract yo stop whining cause i outbid you

pornguy · 10-13-2004, 07:05 PM

made of wood.

Yeah. They cost that much.

They will hire some illegal people and pay them like 3 dollars an hour, and use untreated wood, with cheap paint.

n3in · 10-13-2004, 07:06 PM

man, that is pretty ridiculous

crockett · 10-13-2004, 07:06 PM

Jesus that's over 50k each.. shit in Palm Bay FL a few years ago you could buy a damn house for that much.

Spunky · 10-13-2004, 07:06 PM

$54,500 each sounds like a lot, but...

South Florida....
On the beach....
Ocean View....

Sure, it's probably low on the square footage and plumbing, but it just might be a good deal!

Kard63 · 10-13-2004, 07:19 PM

Material dosnt cost more there and its their beach..... no its not a good deal.

jacked · 10-13-2004, 07:32 PM

pxxx · 10-13-2004, 07:38 PM

That is some preposterous shit.

BV · 10-13-2004, 07:38 PM

Sounds not like a life gaurd stand but like one of the small lifegaurd stations they have on the beach.

Steen2 · 10-13-2004, 07:41 PM

Hmm, don't know anything about the industry, so can't comment on the price.

Demand for wood is hign and prices are much higher compared to a few years ago.

stocktrader23 · 10-13-2004, 07:54 PM

Anyone was welcome to bid a lower price and win the job. Not the governments fault nobody did.

reynold · 10-13-2004, 08:00 PM

It's not corruption. Government contracts are open to anyone willing to bid on them. Contractors are just smart enough not to shoot each other in the foot.

Are we in the wrong business?

Kard63 · 10-13-2004, 08:16 PM

That is true. Contractors are stupid. Gov couldnt help it.
