My Name is Bill and I found out that I have a problem !?!?


I found out that I have an addiction to Drywall. I have been using for the last 27 yrs I started out in houses when I was very young and kept with the addiction up to about 3 yrs ago until some low ball bidders and some Goverment demands tried very hard to get me out of the Sickness and put me in unemployment rehab. But with the yrs of using the white stuff, I can't stop and now have crossed over to doing the Commercial stuff. It's not the same rush, but it keeps me from going into DT's and at a slower usage.

Thanks for Listening, Bill

There's just something about a couple hunderd freshly hung sheets of rock that haven't got that icky white stuff on'em that kinda excites me. Too much information?

Apart from mild job satisfaction I'm mainly addicted to that "CHA CHING!" sound I hear after the jobs done.

Welcome Bill! I wouldn't say I'm addicted... I just needed a reason to buy more tools!

Looking forward to more of your posts!
