Darn hot and humid here today. Storms are making their way to us but won't cool it down.
Went to the in-laws this morning to help a guy with replacing their ceiling drywall. I worked with him taking those cabinets out the widow's place. Tells me we will be starting at 8am. Kids and I were there at 7:55. Around 9:30 he calls to talk to my FIL who had left. Tells me a story about how he has to get his trailer licensed and it might be too late to start by time he gets it done.
I advised the FIL and he was not happy. Dude tells him he will be there shortly. About 11:00 he shows up. I had already taken all of the lighting fixtures down and had nothing else to do.
He and his buddy start checking for trusses and making chalklines. About 12:30 they take off to get lunch. WTF? We hadn't done a darn thing!
We left at 1:30 because I have to look a possible brake job for a school volunteer.
I've not seen my FIL really pissed in 17 years. He was so mad he left.
Used the situation to teach the kids a lesson: You make a commitment, keep it, be on time, and don't be a schmuck.
