Or who actully DO this line of work for a living? Too expensive.<br />Bottom-line mentality denotes hiring partially-trained temps. Don't have to pay them as much---"SAVES MONEY!".

Would make more sense to bolt or screw the top portion right to the fence post with a rubber spacer in between. This is just sloppy work. I highly doubt anybody will do any thing though.
