It's Not Americas Home Place Without Drunk Sheetrockers

Several days later, we took another drive to the house and went inside when we saw a workman's pickup truck in the driveway. The workers were two sheetrockers that came in from neighboring Georgia, totally plastered (drunk) and one of the workers had sliced his hand with a sheetrock knife and was bleeding profusely.

Luckly, we had a first aid kit in the car and bandaged it up to stem the bleeding. Having done sheetrock before, I couldn't imagine sheetrocking and taping a house with only one hand. Guess you, the reader, can figure out the type of sheetrocking job that was done in our house and how many people they called in over the last 18 months to fix sheet rock related issues.

I know it's common for a sub-contractor to have a few beers when working on hot days just to cool off, but we believe that being completely plastered was an exception to series of tradesmen that worked on our home hired by Americas Home Place. But then again, we were hardly ever there when the various subs were working, so can't say for sure who was sobor, drinking or drunk when they did their work, especially when you continue reading our Americas Home Place Blunders story.
