Took my wife’s vehicle to a local body shop yesterday that has been there for 30+ years. The owner told me that it’s hard to get workers that will take a drug test. He said it’s been that way for the last few years.

Why does a body shop need them to take a drug test?

Have you ever done roofing?

Only people who would want to do that are those who can’t get another job.

It fricking sucks.

The problem on the roofing end is that the convicts are slow as shite.

Mexicans lay down 50-60 squares a day and it takes the white boys 2 weeks.

Maybe they huff acetone or MEK.
