OK, So Who's Working Today And Who's Not?
I was planning on coming today for 1/2 day or so. Maybe 12-5. But because my finish distributor neglected to put the catalyst into my pre cat lacquer I am in here for a full day stripping moldings and refinishing them just to get to the point I was yesterday.
I would rather be home with my family, who are all at home with a day off than fixing up someone else's error. Oh, and they offered to replace the 1/2 gallon of product I used with a whole 1 gallon of new product. Who boy, thanks for the extra half gallon. I will probably spend 6 hours repairing this mess only to be a day behind where I should be and they offer me $26 and will think they are even with me. I will be talking to the big guy and getting more than one gallon out of this. ![]() So I should be at the shop for a good portion of the day. The only saving fgrace is the weather suck and I would be in the house all day anyway. But I would be watching the boob tube and playing on the internet.

Re: OK, So Who's Working Today And Who's Not?
I just stopped by home, on my way to top coat some drywall patches and a wall I built.
I will spend the majority of the day just driving around.

Re: OK, So Who's Working Today And Who's Not?
Started out I was going to, but frinds had other ideas....seems like everyone has been calling gonna stop by and visit...What ever.
I was going to attach the backsplash to a countertop and set it, throw in some kick plates and grab a check, but it will keep until monday.

Re: OK, So Who's Working Today And Who's Not?
Just got in.
Wed. was one of those crazy days. Finished up a four brick to brickwindow replacement as the building super was yelling at us to get out. The window sub didn't even have time to clean so I went in to do some cleaning this morning. Easy day with the befefit of walking through midtown checking out the Christmas decorations.

Re: OK, So Who's Working Today And Who's Not?
Still here. Got two more molding to scrub the finish off and put a properly catalyzed finish back on. At the end of today I will be back to where I was when I left on Wed.
This sucks.

Re: OK, So Who's Working Today And Who's Not?
Haven't had a day off in 3 weeks. Working part time at H. Depot and doing side jobs when I'm not there. Not complaining though
