Junctions: No Job Too Odd
.
“No Job Too Odd” is a funky diner on the corner of Odd Jobs and Strange Renovations. Everything imaginable has been orchestrated from its naugahyde booths. The coffee they serve there does pushups on the tongue. On the back wall there are pictures of the old crowd.
.
The lunchtime special fits neatly in a box. The dinner rolls are the size of a Beetle and yes, that is the cook you saw leaning on the wall around back wearing clown makeup and having a smoke.
.
In this corner are some green builders and over there some red men talking. A stack of blue plates drops into a stainless steel cabinet on some sort of spring.
.
Bad directions, Big Ideas and Sad Stories…

No Job Too Odd!
Junction Home Services began in 2003 as Strange Renovations; a name derived from a desire I had to take on unusual projects. In reality, the jobs I embarked upon were not all that out of the ordinary, but each provided insight into the craft, complexity and life cycle of a building project.
I learned that I have different responsibilities when I am the initiator of a project than when I am called in to address another's work. I also learned that doing my best work gives my customers real value that will save them time and money down the road.
My career as a carpenter began in 1989 when I moved into a one-room schoolhouse in Roxana, Delaware. The building was 106 years old at the time and in need of much attention. Slowly I became more and more involved with carpentry until eventually I began to earn my living working with wood. I still live in the house today.
The name Junction was chosen in 2008. I selected it because each home stands upon a junction of its past and future. This is where we live our lives and where the work gets done.

Barry, can I come to your diner? You know how I love a clown.
P.S. I stopped by all your links in my journey through your post. Thanks for showing me the way.
I like link journeys too and I am sorry to tell you this Phan but those weren't real clowns.
:-)
They were just pretending to be clowns.
