Mr Smiths 40 year old dog that barks at 10 decibells because somebody has entered the building.

The the damn thing treading all over your tools rubbish bucket, then barking at you with the deepest, loudest 'woof' you have ever heard in your life.

Then Mrs Smith laughing cuz the family dog is barking at you whilst you are balanced on some steps trying to polish off the ceiling you have just spent 30 minutes skimming getting it to perfection - instead of trying to get rid of it into the garden.

Hate it. 🙁
 
heres a good one for you regarding dogs,a mate of mine was tiling a council house kitchen in blackburn,walked in the house,dog started yapping,little terrier or something,now gordons a happy chap,so said hello to it gave it a stroke etc,it stilll carried on yapping......jokingly he said"anymore from you and ill throw you in the canal at the bottom of the garden".....anyway next thing he knows the site agent stops him at lunchtime to say that the lady whose house he has just tiled had put a complaint in about what he was going to do to her dog!!!!........i couldnt stop laughing🙂
 
hey yar, here's another one.....

Just completed a job for Mr Smith (Who incidentaly owns the vocally blessed dog I was just on about)....

He's ex RAF and still thinks he's in. Everything laid out, spotless and uniformed.

SoI tip up to do his bathroom refurb. Complete rip out. Ceilings, walls the lot.

His eyes fall out at the mess I have created, all neatly stacked in a pile in his garage to be taken away by him. HE THEN STARTS CLEANING UP WHILST I AM TRYING TO GET MY DATUM LINE ON THE WALLS, kicking my laser level by accident etc....

To cap it off, he starts moaning that I have been cleaning my buckets / trowels and washboy out on the grass over the recent days, and that the grass will die. He was obvioulsy oblivious to the scorch stains on the grass where his 40 year old dog had been slashing acid plss all over it.

To add to the final patronisation, he said it was a military thing and that I wouldn't understand. Didn't have the heart to tell him that I left the Army a higher rank than him.... bless 🙂

Hate it.
 
Should have grabbed him by his war wounds, swung him round the garden, then let his dog **** all over him while he's laying in a heap in the rose bushes!! 🙂
 
My turn for a moan. Had a right ***** of a day today, first time i have ever walked off a job (with damn good reason though). Went to do a job at 9:00 this morning, a 4m2 kitchen splash back, should have been a piece of cake. put spirit level on benches and couldn't believe how far out they ran, God knows who fittend that, so that mean't i was going to have a right f*** on to start with. Primed the walls and started setting out, bent over to pick up my spirit level and my jeans ripped right down the crack of my arse 😱mg_smile: . The time was 9:15 and already my blood pressure was building.

The house is tiny so i set up all my tools and cutters in the back patio/garden. All was going well until 12:00. At this point 10 toddlers show up for a damn kids party, they were in my tool bag, running around right next to my wet cutter, knives, off cuts of ceramic tile were all over the floor. That was it for me, Packed me bags and told the customer it was far too dangerous for me to continue and that i would come back tomorrow, which i will, but i also told her that i was annoyed that she booked me the same day as having her kids 4 year birthday party as it has basically put me back 1 day. AAARRRRGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!:angry_smile: Not a happy bunny!
 
You should have got into the spirit of the thing.... give the kids the offcuts and let them 'mosaic' the walls🙂
that would teach her....
