Plenty of time for more stress

...in spite of what Victor wants, or thinks.

The plumber did come today, but he couldn't hook up anything because the counter guys failed to drill the correct holes for the faucet. A minor thing, but it meant the plumber wasted a trip, and the counter guys had to make another trip, and I had to take a break from my work to call and tell the counter people that their guys needed to come back to drill the correct holes...for want of a nail, y'know?

This is the kind of little stupid crap that has has plauged this job. I've had no outright disasters (and I am grateful for this, don't misunderstand), but we've wasted hours and hours on things that would have been prevented by people just double-checking little details (or paying attention to those details in the first place). Imagine my job, times how many jobs like this are going on every day...that's a bitch of a lot of inefficiency.

And a bitch of a lot of stress.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha....yes. It's close. And I'm close to ready for rubber wallpaper and a jacket with sleeves on the back.
