Asking for tile advice, when asked what substrate he was tiling onto. He replied WPB 18mm ply. His excuse was that he wanted to strengthen the walls up as the stud walls were not able to take anything like cement boards.

I could have slapped him with a wet fish...if I could have laid my hands on a dry one I would have done.

The customer was no better rolling in after climbing out his old M3....proclaiming his hate of tiles and love of fast cars and big tellies.

I tried explaining but after the sixth time I let it go. I hope they fall off the effin walls.
