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?

Re: My New Helpers Just Aren't Working Out
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.

Re: My New Helpers Just Aren't Working OutQuote:
"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.
