DIY nightmares

i know a lad who started as an apprentice joiner, his gaffer left him strip all the plasterboard off a bedroom in a customers house, he was instructed on how to tackle this from inside the bedroom. when the gaffer left, the young lad in his wisdom thought it would be much easier to work from above than below. he found the loft hatch, up he went and kicked the whole ceiling down in minutes. with a big smile on his face, already forseeing a huge bonus from his new boss, he climbed back down. when he went into the to see that nothing had been touched, it wasnt till he went next door he realised he had done the wrong bedroom roof:scared1::ohmy:

 

I'd have loved to have been there when the boss came back!!! How did he explain that!?!

Went to modernise the bathroom in my first house, knocked out the wall and airing cupboard and smashed the cast iron bath, cleared it all out then got visitors and got asked to help with something else etc. Had to live with it like that for two weeks until I got time to finish it. My ex wife still shut the door when she went in to use the loo! Luckily the neighbours let us use their shower! Wife did have a sense of humour failure tho.
