Customer wanted a non std size for 60 degree space and I messed up on the size ... Had to do the job over. Was lucky in that it was a new overlay and was able to use "One Step Sealer" to cover up the incorrect lines and re-do. Pretty dumb, time consuming and costly. Guess I got a little to comfortable and put my brain in idle.

We have many but thee most embarrassing has to be when we 1st started we used a broom handle to measure out the stall! 2 and half I think it was! Close second was when we had to stencil the words ... Hook Line And Sinker in 30 carpark spaces for a pub, and I thought the bloke asked for stinker instead of sinker. I was still getting used to the Kiwi accent! He thought it was that funny he left them there! I have never phoned that customer up for a follow up job!
