Complaint Department: What was your worst painting experience?

Here is mine: I hired my son to sand, pressure wash, and stain our front deck the summer before he began his first year as a college student. I figured it was a “can’t miss” job that made him do work and I was able to help him save for those late night pizzas. Well, they could not be more correct when they say no good deed goes unpunished.

Within six hours I recieved 10 phone calls along with a broken pressure washer. Guess how my next Sunday went.
