Sprinkler System Woes

So my mother got a sprinkler system put in which is nice but, unfortunately the people she hired to do it were a bunch of beaners who don't know what they are doing. So instead of listening to me and doing it right the first time by getting a certified professional to put in the system she hired the low cost beaners.

Here is the problem with hiring low cost beaners, they do low cost work, which is a nice way of saying they do shitty work. This is because beaners have watched other people do the same job and then pretend they know what they are doing when they don't have a goddamn clue. So mother was suckered into believing that this ass that she hired knew what he was doing because he simply said "I've done it before."

See it would be one thing if my mother would pay them the cheap ass price they were asking for, but nope, she also tries to stretch it out as they go by asking for more things on the same price. Then the best part is she calls and nags them, but at one point they stop picking up the phone at all and never call back because she nags and nags and nags. Trust me I know from experience.

So here is where I come in, I tried very hard to correct some of the mistakes this guy made by reconfiguring the pump. He didn't include a gate valve and he put the check valve in the wrong place all together. I redesigned the whole thing and put it back together again. Then my worst fear came true, the system didn't work when I tried it. The pump turned on, but no water came out...

Totally frustrated and losing a whole day on this shit, we decided to just hire someone to correct the mistakes. Total bullshit... I know I put the systeam together correctly, but for some reason it just didn't work.
