govenment alloows the to do it by keeping labar rates so low it's pathetic. Let's see I've got 20 years in this business, have continued to update and keep current my education and certification and we can only get paid $45 per hour (the shop rate, not what the employee gets) for labor and $20 per hour for paint. Shit I can go through $20 per minute in paint.



I may be misreading this-but it sounds like there's some sort of cap on the labor rate?
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

I charge what I want for my jobs, the client normally has a look of money about them ;D
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

I just appreciate all you people paying my salary. Well, maybe 80% of you people (I appreciate 100% - But, only about 80% of you pay it - yeah, that's what I meant). Do you know what I did with that money?

Hookers and blow.

So, if you're ever asked if you bought a Hooker, you can stand up proud and say "Yes, I've bought a Hooker, or at least a part of one (I'll let you decide which part you want to claim)"

Do you wonder why I capitalize Hooker?

I'm a little hyper. Too much caffeine today and the ship is a rockin (don't come a knockin') from "high winds & heavy seas."

Yeah.. that's about all... carry on.

Ohh yeah, do you know what's the best kind of pie?

FPCON Pie.

I sense some bitterness....



If your pay was regulated by an insurance company you'd be bitter.
