b what the, who the, when the
during a recent remodel, a floor installer who came with good references, showed up to install 750 s.f. of heart pine, two weeks late and too late in the project to be fired. with an attitude that he was doing us a favor he proceeded to start laying the floor until we noticed the butt joints were not square,his saw had “fallen from the pickup” so i told him to use my compound miter that i know is square. problem solved, until he needed my jigsaw, then when i viewed what he was using for a table saw i just pointed at my shop saw and told him to use that too.this floor job took three days and every day he used my tools without even a thanks, nevermind my inconvenience.any ideas what to do next time?
