My New Helpers Just Aren't Working Out
Yeah they were young, I figured that their enthusiasm would make up for their inexperience
Here's a pic of their latest interior repaint I left them on
I probably should've stayed on site with these two huh?

Hey Slick, I could've told you they were bad news. I had to cut that whole crew loose last month when I caught them drinking on the job.

I recognize the one on the right. He took a day off and never came back. He did call the next day with some story,
"Well I was drunk the day my mama got outta prison
And I went to pick 'er up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in my pickup..truck,
She got runned over by a damned old train."
Asked if he could borrow $50.00 til payday. Damn I miss that kid. He couldn't paint worth a crap, but boy could he tell a whopper.
