Re: dumb ass contractor, im going to have to fire him... [Re: Prisoner#1]
    #10462606 -

so the carpet/roof guys screwed me over, and never showed up, i had to find someone else to come out last minute to patch up the roof (that was supposed to be done allready) so that it does not ruin the interroir re-modeling i have done.

im putting a stop payment on the check i wrote them the other day, as Im getting screwed with extra equipment rental, and other contractor costs because of their failure to complete the task.

some fucking people.

im also probably going to hit a wall tomorrow with my flooring contractor, something tells me he is not going to be showing up...

Anybody can do drywall.. some people just don't want to be bothered/have the time.
And if you don't have the right tools... and doing it by yourself... yeah.. have fun with that.

So you hang 12' drywall sheets on 12+ foot ceilings solo?

Not that it's not doable.. but that's a big pain in the ass to get it perfect.. not to mention time.

you just have to be smarter than the material you're working with,
I knew an old man that had a stroke and was paralyzed on the left
side that hanged sheetrock on his own, he made tools to do the work
