there was a time many many moons ago that I was working union and we were doing strait eight apartments. All eight foot stand ups. We had a fifty sheet a day quota or they had your money. Anything over fifty was $5 a board cash in the envelope at the end of the week. I had four months of 120 sheets a day six days a week.

I have a eight man gang that will do 300 sheets with corner bead in 9 hours. 10 if they scrap it.

A good, man on a residential job on wood should be doing 40-45 a day per man. Commercial standups on metal no topping out, screwed off should be doing 50-75 per day on strait runs and loading his cart.
