Needed to get some gyprocking work done. At the same time I asked the guy to patch 2 holes in the ceiling on the rear balcony. The roofer needed to inspect where water was leaking through.
No worries - walk through the house, point out exactly what needed doing and the 2 holes that needed repairing. How hard could it be? I'm at work, boss calls me to confirm that the workers have started. Confirmed the work we agreed to as well as the 2 holes out the back. Come home to find that they had patched up the 2 holes in the rumpus that were cut out by the AC guy for manhole installation. Boss is Middle Eastern, workers Chinese.. What could go wrong? If I ever build again I will never leave the site and watch every worker like a hawk. Everything is a 'misunderstanding' when they screw up. Boss tried to blame me for not being there as well... I can just see him now. 'Yeah boys, the bulkheads above the robes and the 2 ceiling holes at the back of the house'...
