I cannot, and will not, compete with you on pinshit shit.

5/7 looks.
0/7 functionality.
The crazy thing, we might have a paying gig coming up from this.

Wife had a friend come over and ask if we'd consider upgrading her kitchen in a similar manner if she paid us.
Wife just sent her pictures of the shelves and friend responded "when can you start?"

No idea what to charge. We're going to talk it over. Getting paid to pinshit seems :notsure: but equally :fuckyeah: This is easy for us but :nope: for many others.
I want to go on record as saying this is an absolutely HORRIBLE IDEA. Where do we start?

1. You're fucking telling me you don't have enough of this shit to do at your own house and now you want to be an unlicensed contractor for a WOMAN? Get a life! Go camping. Walk your dog. Drink at Tony's. Get drunk and screw. ANYTHING.
2. WOMAN was in caps because she LOVES your work now but something goes awry and
a. What is already probably bro-deal pricing now becomes even more contentious and she won't want to pay you at all. Result? Friendship flushed.
b. Do you really want to be subject to the arbitrary whims of ANOTHER WOMAN? That's insanity. Are you Mormon Bro? Is one not enough?
3. Wow, you both have day jobs and plenty of pinshit at home. How about your friend GO HIRE A LICENSED CONTRACTOR TO FIX HER HOUSE IF SHE CAN'T DO IT HERSELF?

I urge you to rethink this.

I told her I'll only do basic drywall/plaster repair, painting, and backsplash tile. Anything requiring wiring, plumbing, or moving appliances is a :nope: due to the above. Even though I can do that stuff, I DO NOT want to be held liable.


Other than the hood ducting, we didn't do anything else to our kitchen and apparently that's all the friend wants. We'll see. :iono:
Smart.

Yea, we'll see. She's not really MY friend, and I don't make any design decisions, I just do the work.

Realistically, we have too much pinshitting to do around our own house, let alone someone else's. I'd be surprised if it materializes, but :iono:

I want to make sure the lighting changes to the kitchen are all sorted prior to the guys coming to do my reno so aside from clearing out most of the main level floor I ditched the old track light in the kitchen for three pot lights and two pendant lights. The only annoying part is that I needed to run it all on the single switch to avoid ripping the whole place apart. It should make for a nice bright space. I'll probably go with a dimmer switch and dimmable led pots and squirrel cage led Edison bulbs. I love that the 2nd level floor joists worked in my favor and minimal ceiling damage occurred to make it all happen, I literally only needed to cut one 4" hole right where the existing wiring passed by the pendant holes. :fuckyeah: ImageImage

Short of a few large items, the first floor has been totally emptied out. Everything except a few chairs, a kitchen table, ottoman, tv and a hand full of dishes will be left after tonight. It felt great to throw away huge amounts of crap we don't use. The kitchen alone takes up 7-8 boxes snd probably an entire garbage bag or two of stuff getting thrown out.

I straight up throw out / recycle stuff. Lisa gets madbro at me saying someone could use that and let me see if anyone at the shop needs it. That's how we've had a microwave sitting in our basement for a year, or old pots and pans sitting around, etc. :rolleyes: She now has a shelf to keep all her "I'll eventually donate it" shit.

I now have a salvation army 2 blocks away - anything that's donate-able gets donated (gotta start tracking that for write-offs), everything else gets tossed or put on the curb for finders-keepers.

I can't wait to put the fucking treadmill in the basement on the curb.

I fucking hate clutter.
