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."

Funny how harry doesn't jump all over slammie for being racist when he
write's a remark like, "North America is doomed from the little ****s."
That
sounds pretty damned racist to me. Oh yeah, I forgot... slammie's one
of his
few friends here. ;-)

Well, there's always Eisboch, Wayne B, Don White, or several others
who are quick to jump. You make a good point.


I wrote slammer off a long time ago. I rarely see what he posts.
I see yours.

Eisboch



Interesting how really stupid boobs like JustHate, Mike, et cetera, misuse
the word "racist." Interesting but not surprising.


Not misused at all. Just your usual attempt at "spin." That's neither
interesting nor surprising.

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.

That is an interesting thing. We were in the Black Hills a couple

on the ground to avoid a forest fire they burn these "slash piles".

The best explanation I could get was they were banned from "logging"
there so they had to burn them instead of giving/selling to a saw
mill.
Environmentalists and inintended consequences or just protecting tree
farmers and propping up the price of wood?
Anyone's guess.
It is some nice looking "lumber" to be burning.


Probably just the inefficiency gov suffers from in trying to keep
clean hands.
If they sold it they'd run into accusations of corruption and
favoritism, true or not, so they take the easy way out.
Too bad there aren't more people with plain business sense in the gov.
And where there is massive fraud, like Medicare and SS disability,
they don't hire investigative staff, which would pay off 10 to 1,
because they'll be accused of "growing the government."
Back to that brush pile - imagine the air pollution from burning it.
Just doesn't make sense.

Almost all Medicare fraud is committed by private sector businesses
against the government. Also note that social security disability is not
easy to obtain.

I hate to say it, but the Interior Department has become the enemy. I
know an "inholder" (his land is almost surrounded by a National Forest).
There's not a year goes by that the Forest Service doesn't find a new way
to hassle him. I've tried to make sense of their BS, but I've come to
the conclusion they want his land, and figure if they make his life
miserable enough, he'll sell it. Unfortunately, from my readings, he is
not alone in his dilemma.

Are you really saying a Canadian drywall plant is closing because three
years ago there was some bad drywall imported from China? *You get
dumber by the minute!


The dumb troll is trying to take another shot at the US... Uh,
Canada's free lunch...
