Replying to Share Your Craziest At Work Story
I work as a tile setter in the summer which helps me pay for skis/boots/food/trips etc. Spend most of my days remodeling homes and small businesses.
This particular day we just got done finished setting the front of a home right next to Seven Springs.
*If you don’t know anything about tile work, putting tile on the outside of you house in Pennsylvania is just ab the dumbest thing you can do. It cracks and looks like shit after a short while due to the shitty weather.
Anyway, the front of this house is finished and about an hour before we plan on being done for the day the weight from the tile causes the support beam running from one side of the house to the other to sag which is holding up the whole front end of this house. All the tile from this beam falls off right in front of the homeowner. If it would have landed on this lady there probably would have been a lawsuit that put us out of business but we lucked out. I’ll never forget the look on the woman’s face. Kinda what you get when you don’t incorporate the immense weight pulling this beam down in the plans for the house.
