I saw a good sale price on sheetrock advertised the other day but then saw that they wanted $1.50 per sheet delivered,so maybe you can pick it up yourself and save $.
This was an installed/finished/primed price.

My local yard, and all the other building supply houses deliver for a flat charge around here.

I can do drywall, but a pro will do it faster.

Dare I ask if you have an idea of when you'll begin sleeping under that new roof?

If I end up doing the drywall not much before. laughingdp

*rant about the people i work with and the culture the managers are fostering*


i asked for a replacemtn ergo keyboard since the one i'mon has keys that stick and has been completely cutting out on me. rotating my wrist over to type flat is quite painful with all the metal and such going on in there. the response i got was an eye roll and "i'll see, but i don't think so."

as i was sitting here eating my lunch and actually doing a bit of work while eating i was asked if i could call lorraine. I asked who lorraine was and was told they didn't know, but it was an urgent order from NYC. I don't handle that area, and the lady that does was away from her desk eating lunch. after i saw the number and was told that it was an order, iknew who it was (very demanding and quick to blame customer) i said that it could wait and my co-worker would be back soon. I was then told by a mgr that i snapped on the guy trying to pass it off on me. i'm waiting for it to be brought up in my weekly meeting tomorrow.

the fact that seemingly 90% of TV is "reality" shows proves quite the opposite

the bunch of us playing pranks on one another while breaking ML's equipment would be something America needs to watch every Tuesday at 9pm

I just quoted like $300,000 worth of work.

Some of you may want to think about moving here.
