Ever wonder what a pre-bid meeting for the City of Arlington Janitorial Services bid looks like? Behold!The funny thing was there was a very large man of african american heritage sitting in the back who kept falling asleep. OK, that part wasn't really so funny, but when he would start snoring loud enough that everyone turned around to look at him...yep...that was pretty funny.
For today's bonus round: If all the contract terms are clearly spelled out in writing, and any verbally disseminated information is non-binding, what is the point of a pre-bid meeting where they read through the bid documents? I would think, that if a vendor can't figure out how to read the specs in a bid, the city would be glad to know it and would promptly DQ them. Am I too much of a cynic?

If they're anything like Texas A&M, they don't care if you're smart or can offer them any kind of good service. They're looking for the cheapest bidder that meets the minimum requirements. Its a cryin' shame but the cold hard truth.
i have been awake nights wondering what a pre-bid meeting for the City of Arlington Janitorial Services bid looks like. so thanks.
Was his only error that he did not resort to snore prevention via creating a blog post during the meeting?
Actually, I only snapped the photo during the meeting. I posted it at home later ;)
