It got bad when the bottom fell half way out as the kids were playing 
It wouldn't line up in the grooves even when I was sober Christmas morning.

Kidkraft kitchen. Took me almost 4 hours. I'm a professional engineer! I can't imagine a single Mom trying to do that.

Did that for a birthday and I'm paying somebody next time.
I told my wife you could start a business and people would pay big money to have people put their toys together.

Basketball goal that I had to do with one arm because of a herniated disc in my neck that took every bit of strength out of my left arm.

Did that one last year.
Took a break half way through to put together the Millenium Falcon. Get well soon, Princess Leia.

If you found a place that offers installation for a fee, thats the best money you could possibly spend.
It would definitely be seasonal, but seems like there would be money to be made in putting the frickers together.
Unless you had 100 crews of messicans willing to work midnight to daybreak on Christmas I just don't kbow how it would work though.

That's hilarious. Glad you took that pic because I couldn't have imagined it being that bad otherwise.
Blame it on the elves. Lol

This was some bullsish! Box and company say 18 hrs two people. I thought to myself "hey I could take 4 days off of work and knock it out!" 3.5 weeks later it was almost done.
I called the company and they said "we have engineers who have finished building it in 8 hours." I said bs. It comes with 1500 pieces.

I put together a trampoline last year. During the day but it was raining and in the 40s the entire time. That really sucked.
A corner kids kitchen was brutal too

Those kitchens are a lot heavier than they look.

The Chinese who work at the toy factories must take pleasure in ensuring that each toy has no less than 50 wire ties securing it to the packing materials.

A trampoline with the high net walls that you had to basically sow to the trampoline with one continuous piece of string. Total nightmare. 5 hours in I was still pulling that through each spring.

Not sure of we have thr same kitchen but the one we put togetver was a bitch as well.
What really pisses me off is the toys that cant be taken apart once they are together. My girls have so many bigger toys that sit against the wall bc it cant be taken apart.

I opened the box to a swing set earlier today. Took one look and closed the box. Got on the local Facebook buy and sell page and asked if anybody needed some extra Christmas money. Have somebody coming in the morning to put it together.
