"Took your lads long enough" muttered Derner as he looked over the last of boards. "I suppose this will do .. though it might be a wee bit dark for my taste you know. It looked quite a bit lighter in the shop .. maybe we can work out a little discount eh?"
The heavyset foreman just shook his head, "That's why you're supposed to take the sample and look at in the actual light and setting ya know. Not our fault at all. Sign here and we'll get it all installed. Or we can just take it all back, charge you for the time and labor spent bring it here and then let you pick out another shade that suits ya better. Your choice." The man crossed his thick arms and looked about as receptive as the brick floor that Derner was so eager to board over.
"Uh right .. you know, lets just install it as is. Maybe I can just ahh adjust the lighting a little bit to compensate" Derner rubbed his hands together at that, "Yes, that's just the thing .. get started right away!"
The foreman snorted but whistled at his workers and they started unbundling all the wood & setting out across the floor ..
