foc-wit stepson

i've tried...........gawd knows i've really tried to be supportive of him.

through all his little foibles, stupid ideas and plans. even when he screwed over his own mother for £20k i've tried to be a steady hand on the tiller........a voice of reason.

but today he went too far.

i was told he was helping me pop up the plasterboard in the garage (he was a builder-y type person once so fine i thought). first sheet of 8x4 he picks up he snaps

'i'll use that for the fill pieces' i say soothing the situation.

2nd sheet goes up, i put my screws in and pass the drill over to him so he can pop a few in. foc-nuts puts so much force onto the screw it goes sideways and he shoves the drill through the sheet

11 years of biting my tongue came out in about 30s of ranting...........i don't think he'll be coming home tonight!

Oh dear you have my sympathy, so you now have a spare room to rent out.

You probably should have done it a few years earlier

Bit late for your garage I know, but you do any more ceilings your not far from me and I got a board lifter you can borrow. Christ they make it easy...

I feel for ya.  Luckily I've only got my own kids to deal with.  They get locked in the basement with a bucket to piss in when they've done wrong, who said I'd make a bad parent eh
