Pet peeves
OK. I'll start. Here's one of mine. Guys take break at 9:30. We all stand around and visit. Time to go back to work at 9:45 rolls around. Some moron always says I'll be right there I gotta pee. You just had 15 minutes to do whatever on your time. You pee on your time , not mine. Sounds a little harsh but, I get sooo tired of babysitting grown men. Then I'm the A$$hole.

3:30 p.m. No more service calls, plumbers go home early. Gets paid (we guarantee hours).
Next morning, 8:30 a.m. call. Oh wait, I need to fill out my paperwork from yesterday or I have to unload the busted water heater from my truck first or I need to restock! |

Choosing to cut pipe with a handsaw when you can use a tubing cutter with an ABS cutting wheel on it. PVC is another story, I understand that there is no tubing cutter for that type.

carpenters who insist on nailing down lock plates in the middle of two studs rather than over a stud, then you try to drill a 2" hole through the top plates and hit a nail every time!
I use those self feeding bits

Framers that should know where the toilet will be instead they seem to always put a floor joist right where the closet flange will need to go.

 )GC's who let the HO talk them into moving the location of a bathroom after the framing was already built for what was on the plans, and the framer is the plumber as well
