I forgot to mention that he wanted me to patch the drywall back in for him and re-use the tile...

if you notice that is a 1955 green tile and most of it is
falling off the wall al around in that 5x4 green bathtub... It was literally falling off everywhere throughout the bathroom

I told him that their was really nothing left to save..
just tear outthe bathroom and start over

he did not understand why you could just scrape off that old grout , clean them up and re-use the stuff..

I politely told him that a tile man would be much cheaper to do the drywall and tile work..

and I got the hell out of there

Default I forgot this one


here was another bathroom that he wanted me to

"clean up" for him... the 2x4 that he installed needed to be removed so the handles could extend out
past the tile, but he could not grasp that....

I was gonna mention that it needed to be a pressure balanced faucet.... but why make the effort...

He could not grasp that he could not grasp the handles -- that's getting pretty bad.

That is pretty funny! Master Mark, thanks for making me laugh tonight. How did you hold the camera stable while laughing? While snapping pics surely you must've been thinking about posting on the Zone.
