im not getting cocky. Im telling someone whos being a prick to **** off. How the **** would you know if I can get a finish? Do you think Ive never, ever worked with people before? This is one me and 2 other chaps did last year. Let me guess what youre going to say....... Its shite? I didnt do...

Or are you a bit like this?

How can someone use a trowel without doing an apprenticeship. Bloody cowboys!

Is this a fair representation of you cassie?

Well all i can say is that just cos a few people think im a job robbing, un-skilled cowboy i wont stop working. Those of you who like to have a dig you can basically **** off. I think youre high horsed wankers. Ive been learning for almost 7 years now and I reckon I'm pretty good at what I can...

And who am I to argue with the building regs man and the customer?

I just wonder how you would know what work I take on....if youd have seen other posts id written youd see I was asking advice on other things too. Im glad I didnt do an apprenticeship if it leaves you waaayyyyy up there on your high horse. Seems to me that some of you just like to moan and groan...

Would you work for 50 sheets a day? Why would I? I turn jobs down that I know needs a pro plasterer. Im no cowboy. I just enjoy it. Im no threat to all of you trained plasterers so I really dont know what the big deal is. I only asked for some help to get me started on something I dont really...

I dont understand what you mean?
