The deck is coming along. I wish I were building it to a nicer home design.
I think the client will be happy regardless.....

Damn ... after working with wood butchers all week, it's refreshing to see
construction done correctly and with pride. Thanks for the uplift ... I
needed that! :)

whats the matter? You working with a crew?
I know how it can go. I in my older age do take pride in all construction
techniques....Sometimes the job "can afford" that.
I hate the hurry up business.....been there and done it.

Looks good, is this deck going to have more square footage than the house?

Watch for the bounce.

We call this "putting lipstick on a pig."
Kind of like the kid with the $800 spoiler om the $300 car.

Well, at least they have a place to camp out on while they redo the house.
My daughter and family moved in with us while they are having construction
done on their home.

A demonstrable, and pervasive, cultural lack of pride in workmanship.

You working with a crew?


Nope, they work for me ... most, not for long, for the constant battle gets
tedious

I catch your drift......
"putting lipstick on a pig."
I like it............
Anyway, I will do a class A job, regardless of what the place looks like.
that is what my job is.

There too, eh? Here, I am pleasantly surprised when a job gets done right
the first time; it's a rare occurrence.

Hopefully you didn't run Leon off. ;-)

Thank-you for being someone who insists on a quality job; that should put
you in great demand.

Leon works _with_ you, not _for_ you ... don't think he would have it any
other way. :)

you in great demand.


Appreciate the sentiment ...
