Hello mate.......I was back on the job for Dorritt today........
I got there about 8.00 and proceeded to set myself up........put all my gear in a room about 4m x4m close to the tiny, tiny showerroom.....as I finished she said to me "would you mind moving all that stuff... into the hallway!".....
I said yes....I would mind.........the hallway is tiny and i have big tiles and a bigger cutter.....and I don't want to put any dents in walls/wallpaper.........so it will stay where it is and I will clean up any mess before leaving......
I was a little more harsh but you get the point................
then at about 9.30 a painter turns up whom is the father of one of the other painters on the job........he says to everyone....."sorry I am late......the threw us off the tube (at some station I don't remember)"
it was a suspisious package.......I just said "morning" and carried on...........about an hour later I was on the terrace cleaning my buckets out....with this painter...............
he had gone into his room and filled the cracks etc.......went onto the terrace and was having some water and a ciggy.................the client turned up and said to him "could you not be doing something else?....."
and he replied "I have put the filler in and i am going to give it a couple of minutes and then I will rub it down!"
and she said to him...............ready.......... "WELL, everytime I have seen you...you are standing around......not to mention you turned up at 9.30".............
and he replied "no problem"......walked over to his tool set......stuffed it in his bag and said "watch me move now!"......"see you.....I AM OFF!".........
she dived in with "what I ment was....." and he dived back............"well, what i mean is........forget it......,I am off!".........one down!.......
I am back doing my thing and i am rebuilding all her boxings etc........and to reduce the height i need a couple of 35mm rips of timber!......so I go and ask the ONLY chippie on site......"do you have any off cuts I can rip to 35mm?"
he say " I will do that for you......give me a minute".........."no problem mate......thanks!".........
he goes out onto the terrace and gets an off cut of this shaped MDF......that she is using for kitchen cupboards.....apparently it costs a few quid......but its an off cut FFS........
he gives me the rips and I am walking up stairs and she passes me....OMG.........she says "where are you going with that?".......and I say "to use it to prop your boxing!!!!"
she goes mental and drags me back to the chippie and gives him seven shades of Siht...........(and I am in the backgroung miming sorry to the poor fella!)............
he fcuked off at about 3pm......there were a few words exchanged...............fuuny thing is......after that she was all sweetness and light.........
I have formed an opinion......and here it is......"what a fukcin Cutn"..........
rant off!
