Default Props to the Role of the Helper

I just gotta say that today I have gained a new found respect for the role that helper's play in our industry. We are all guilty of bashing on them from time to time (ok, some of 'em deserve it).

But I'll tell you what. Do a remodel of a two-story with 16 fixtures (including a "car wash" for a master shower), which constitutes relocation of almost every fixture, jack hammering of the slab to add items, gas pipe, etc BY YOURSELF WITH ABSOLUTELY NO HELP, and you'll understand where I am coming from.

Its now 7:45 am. I got home at 3:30 am after finally getting it all done. Now I'm about to jump in the car and drive from Texas to California. I guess I'm just a glutton for punishment.
