Has anyone else noticed it�s next to impossible to find someone these days capable of pretty much anything?
From paint to bodywork to even finding a labourer�pretty much forget it. I don�t think I�ve gotten fussier however I honestly don�t know a shop anymore that I�d trust to paint a vehicle of mine or a contractor I�d hire & trust to work on my house. Anyone that�s any good has retired or doing their own thing but not for hire. The odd qualified guy wanting $300/hr.
It really is a sad state in North America & im not sure what caused it?
Here�s a good example. There�s a sandblast shop in my area. A guy went in & wanted his enclosed trailer blasted. The shop told him they�d hit it with walnut shell so as not to warp it. Have a look�Ready For Pick Up�.
