In need of a good wood worker

Post by Lonestar »

Hello,

I have a Khmer wood worker who is refinishing the wood trim on my house and doing a few carpentry jobs for me. I think I am going to fire him today. Does anyone know of anyone they could recommend?

Hard to find. Many are allergic to work and enjoy wearing pajamas all day.

Mine likes to show up, work for two hours and then demand another hundred bucks to buy supplies. If you give him the hundred...you don't see him for two days and then the cycle repeats itself.

LOL, much worse than the pajama wearers. Those you know not to hire in the first place. I was going to say plant your boot in your guy's ass, but a better idea is get ahold of one of those phony Franklin bills and give him that to go buy supplies.
