Did a quote for some work for a guy about a month ago. Called the other day and checked to make sure we're good to go.
Wife wants to know if I'm vaxxed. "I, personally, don't care..." he says. "If YOU, personally, don't care, then why are you asking me, for your wife? She'd be asking me, personally, if YOU didn't care - isn't that right?" I continued with the old "what world do you live in that you have any right of knowledge to my medical status?"
He started apologizing instantly and apologizing for his wife's idiocy. Cancelled the job anyway. Sorry, not dealing with that. They're the first ones to ask.
I even got calls / emails during our red lockdown in New Brunswick telling me they could guarantee nobody in the house but me, I'd have a key. I'm not too worried about dealing with this again. EVERYONE needs drywall + taping work done, and nobody wants to do it lol.
Damn, I wish you lived closer. I've tried drywall, well taping anyways, disaster, so I stuck some caulk in between the sheets, thick wall paper over the drywall and painted the wall paper. It looks pretty good but we're talking about a 100yo house so nobody is looking that closely at the wall. Thank goodness it was only 1 wall and not the whole room or house.
lol. Yes, I've seen a lot of ... different fixes over the years. There's a lot of 100+ year old homes here in NB, mostly plaster, and you can kinda patch it, or replace it. Patching plaster though.... ugh.
I'd say 50% of my initial calls / contact are for ceiling replacement, usually end up doing the painting as well. Once people find you are drywall / tape specific they don't even question it. MOST of the drywall to finish work down here is done by painters ; and they want to paint it all white because it hides everything.
I love it, and I'm beyond grateful and thankful I can be home and do this ( on my own terms at that ) and not have to back out West.
Did that a few years ago ; I went back to Calgary, she stayed home here. Now, with her job as fuel delivery, which is 12-14 hours a day to be available to take care of the 4 dogs and parrots, she couldn't do it. We have cats too but they're ok if you're not home much ha ha.
yea people hate doing it. I learned from the right guy because I love it. He lived and breathed taping.
