    Default been "Rogered" again!

    maybe some of you can remember a while back when i asked about mitred edges being dangerous(on a boxed in bath) Well, Roger insisted on having them mitred, which meant that I had to take off a full wall of tiles,the wall with all the sanny's on, and move my datum up 15mm or so to incorporate the mitre. Now Roger has decided that my concerns were correct and that now we will have an L shaped profiled trim on the corner!!! FFS!

    been paid twice already for it, but if he keeps changing his mind maybe daddy might ask him what's going on, but yes, certainly will be billing for it!

    as a complete novice - why is a mitre on the bath tiles dangerous - sharp edge presumably - but I can't get a picture of the set up in my head?

    yep the sharp edges were, to my mind, at the right height to split a toddlers head open!The bath is set in a box if it helps you envisage it any better

    The worst person i did a job for was a Hiasynth Boquet type.
    Only a small bathroom that i did on a dayrate cos we went though everything at the quote including setting out. I was there one Sunday avo for 2 hrs with the missus in the car. She wasnt a happy bunny!
    Anyhows, this lady changed her mind about tiles all over the place, what was to be tiles, borders etc etc. Nightmare, think i was there 6 days and a callback to change something again....

    Anyways, paid for it all but was glad to get it done.
    Thuned out i did work for most of her family and friends. They recon if i could please her i could please anyone.
