Absolute Coatings' Kathleen Freeman remembers an unforgettable incident at a job site back in her contracting days. About 20 years ago in the middle of winter, she went to a job to sand and finish it. When she walked into the house, she asked the builder where the heat was. He took his hand and started to rub her belly and said, "Hey big fella, looks like you have enough to keep you warm."
