Maybe you should not of overpriced your drywall.

If that's the case...it's an American company doing it.
they are the ones who own the local plant.
How do you find that Chinese drywall........ fumes make you dozy &
irritable... or do you keep your distance and let the illegals deal with
the problem?


Well stupid. I do not hire employees or illegals for my business. And
since the only drywall I do is on my own house, I might notice the smell
when working with it. So a Canadian concern does not have the ability to
be a drywall supplier? Too stupid?



Bilious hires "contract workers" from the Latino shape-up lots that are
all over California. I doubt he even pays minimum waqe, just a lower day
laborer rate that screws his "contract workers."


If I did hire day workers they would no doubt work harder than you or your
union buddies. Only day workers I hired were to clean up the stuff for
disposal when getting the inlaws house ready for market. I called the state
EDD for 4 workers. 50% more than minimum wage for Saturday morning. NO ONE
SHOWED UP. Either they were too lazy, or the STATE UNION CLERK did not pass
on the job. Did I point out that NO ONE SHOWED UP? So I went down to the
food of University Ave in Berkeley and got 3 workers. Paid them $10 an
hour. Minimum wage was about $5.50 then. As we pull out on to University,
young white kid with a begging sign is standing there. 60 year old Mexican
Segundo of the crew, states "Lazy, just Damn Lazy!". Now dip****, prove I
hire illegals for my paid work. Just because you hire illegals as ghost
writers as it appears your writing skills are lacking, do not figure the
rest of us have to.
