contracts suck

days like today make me wish i was 6 again and promises made were kept
i wish i never had to deal with contracts i hate them so much it screws up my whole day (sometimes week) when i have to review one. im no lawyer. i will swirl right around the loopholes without taking a second look. fortunately and unfortunately i have those who double check my very move.
why cant i ask a service provider for something, they promise to do it, they actually do it, i promise to pay them, and i actually pay them? wouldnt that be a whole lot easier than lingering over every word and number in a freakin' booklet?
