Shellac? Varnish? Go old school! That stuff dilutes with alcohol, so it's easier to fix fuck-ups.

I'm buying some paint / varnish stripper tomorrow, mineral spirits, more sandpaper, a new paint brush, and a new can of polyurethane. I'm going to beat this mother fucker. My only other option is to strip everything off then paint it, and I'd rather avoid that if I can. I'm trying to refinish some of the wood moulding in my living room; instead I'm just screwing it up. I guess I know what I'm doing for the rest of my vacation.

That's a bit overkill for what I need. I'm no craftsman, just a DIY schmuck. I'm going to strip all of the bullshit off, and I think I'm going to give the Miniwax Polyshades a try. Read a bunch of reviews on it, mostly negative, but most people using it were using some mahogany shade. I need the pecan color, and the reviews I read of that were all positive.

Let us know when you Miniwax your legs in pecan. lmao! At least send pics of your project.

If it doesn't end up looking like complete shit I'll consider it. I'm in the process of stripping the wood now. Fun and chemically.

Sat with a customer for an hour and a half yesterday trying to help her get used to her phone. She refused to listen to me, whined all the way through it (seriously, applying a screen lock should not need to be explained 10 times) and then the bitch gave me really bad feedback. I could not have been any more patient, or explained things any more times. I want to take her phone and beat her with it. Stupid cow

People who change plans at last minute and without informing or even giving a clue about it so that there is no way about it and it has to be totally cancelled and you can do nothing.

Compentations to work on the weekend? Is that a thing?

megido-rev.M · « **Reply #7932 on:** March 23, 2013, 12:59:04 AM »

For wage workers, maybe.

March Madness. I don't look like it, but I was actually good at basketball for a good part of my life.
And thus, every march I get to go mad.

Hah...hah...shit, that was bad.

When you try something new (in this case it was at Starbucks) and it tastes like utter garbage. :x
