I would simply call it "freedom of trade" when it comes to the general contractor, and unfortunately mailbox general contractors are not uncommon and are not formally illegal either. I don’t know about site managers; this probably varies from state to state, who can be appointed – sometimes the client herself (by the way: you have long been the actual contractor yourself here, why you are still dragging the general contractor along beside you, only the gods understand – that’s why I am also “confident” that he will ride it out calmly, just how long you will need to realize this), and it’s not uncommon to pin this label on the know-it-all father-in-law, who after all once drove a truck for a construction company. Such tradesmen don’t read the package inserts either, even though they speak the same mother tongue as the mortar manufacturer. And you have already been pointed out several times to a possible causality between price and quality of performance – not everyone can be crazy or driving on the wrong side. Appreciative treatment rarely motivates one to “wall in” the offcuts and empties behind the cladding. Sure, you have indeed encountered a lot of unbelievable things here. But you don’t seem to be completely blameless in this either: to my ears, the underlying attitude “everyone is an idiot except me” constantly resonates here.
