Comparable Work
The cost comparison had one very promising column.
Chip's estimate was lower than Gary's.
Bev asked what it included.
"The catalog," Chip said.
Gary asked which catalog.
Chip opened the second file. Then the supplier notes. Then the exceptions.
Bev added a row for review time.
Gary moved his notes beside Chip's desk.
"Start with the wheels. The pictures lie."
