I had my garage converted by a paddy. Most days he turned up hungover, most days he ****ed off early to the pub, some days he just didn't turn up at all. It should have taken 3 weeks, took him 7 in the end. Left a load of rubbish at the side of the house too. He was recommended by family but I don't know why.
Was working on site a few years back and towards the end of the job when the painters came in, most of them were poles. It made me uncomfortable because I had no idea what they were saying to each other. I was paranoid that they were talking about me because I'm black and I know they are quite racist as a nation.
