What he probably heard, "Nice, this is a down ass chick that's all for a tape-less paint job!"
Or he just doesn't give a fuck. No wonder he doesn't do this full time, he has no skill at it.
Fun painting tip: I found keeping some sand around to be very handy. If you get a drip on cement (or anything really), just throw some sand on it quickly and rub it around. The sand grains pick up the paint, and you get some abrasive action from the sand to make sure all of it comes up. At least that's what I did when I did alot of painting back in the day.
Don't blame this on me! I will cutchu!
For real though, if anything this is making me appreciate the fact that I do actually have some skill at interior painting. Because holy crap I don't think I could've done this poorly if I tried. Like I said, I painted a bathroom half drunk and did a better job than this.
Oh! And I forgot the best part! He didn't even take off the plate covers around the switches and outlets of the room yesterday........ So there's that too.
Man... I just disagree with you there. If he's actively messing up your house then you absolutely have to say something no matter how it came about. It's your house. If he does a terrible job it will affect your bottom line. Just be cool about it!
I'll drop it though. Sorry you have that to deal with on top of all the other craziness in your life.
Ugh, I really want to. I wish I would've brought it up earlier or right when he got here today and mentioned it in a "hey, I looked at the room you did yesterday and..." Blah blah blah kind of way. The problem now though is that I think I've let it fester too much and I don't think it would come out polite at all. I also avoid conflict like the fucking plague.
For a small fee, I'll gladly tell that dude he sucks at painting.

I would probably take you up on that at this point.

Holy shit, Monie, I just saw the snap of the paint job.
I truly wonder if he thinks that's an acceptable job? Or maybe he secretly hates your mom? Idk, but that is beyond bad.
I feel so much better knowing that I'm not just being a perfectionist about it. I can be very anal retentive about the way I like things done and I sometimes can't tell if it's me overreacting or not. So thank you for making me feel sane.
That was yesterday's room. Today's trim is already done. He's just doing the "open space" part of the wall now so there is really nothing to be said at this point. Just going to have to fix it when I can.
Monie, thats awful. Not only did he not cover the baseboards, he didn't unscrew the outlets. I worked under a professional painter this past summer. He would have kicked my ass and then proceed to fire me if I did something like that.
I also forgot a spot while I was shaving this morning. Feel like every-time someone looks at me they notice.

Lol, make some comment like, "I see you tried painting blindfolded yesterday. Let's try and keep the colors inside the line this time please."
Not really, but I'm honestly at a loss of how he could leave it like that. Even if I'd NEVER painted before, I'd be mortified to leave a job like that. Even if I were doing it for free as a favor to a friend.
Maybe he's trying to get you to "upgrade" to his professional service?

maybe when your mom said it's a side project he does she meant it. it's on the sides of the outlets, the sides of the light switches, the sides of the baseboard. overall a terrible paint job, even for free. maybe just show him this thread???

There are a few different ways to take it. I am using it in the "contemptuous, mocking" form.
Also, it was a joke because those two consecutive posts both seemed kinda condescending and "mocking" in nature.
Edit: Which is usually your M.O. but usually it's in a funny, ha ha way as opposed to the way those read. Not anything to get upset or annoyed about... That was why I threw in the "<3" for good measure.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

It is fucking uncanny how significant events fall on top of each other. At least 90% of my free time is pretty flexible and open to whatever comes up. I'm available as fuck. But inevitably:
YAYYYY Rolling Stones tour kicks off in San Diego a couple miles from our new place, awesome!............ shit. We will be in Charlotte.
FYF IS THE BEST FESTIVAL YAYYYYY I CAN'T WAIT TO GO AGAIN!........ fuck. My bridal shower is that weekend. Room has already been reserved/paid for and I would be a gigantic asshole asking them to move it.
It's all good things, but dammit! Basically the ONLY two weekends that we have anything going on. WHYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE?!

How long ago did you reserve it? It's still four months away, and if they have open dates near then I don't think it would be a big deal to them if you changed the date; they still get your business. They've dealt with Bridezillas before (which I know you won't be), so I don't think you rescheduling a date would be put you very high on their list of assholes. Though if you've invited a lot of people who have requested off work or whatnot for that day it might not be the best idea.
