I bought them, they're there. The outlets are buried because of the drywallers and I need to pull them out and put washers behind them to even them up with the wall. I can come tomorrow and do it in the morning along w/ touch up painting. I'm booked today in Lafarge so that's the soonest time.

It's actually one of mine too. But I'm pretty comfortable with and enjoy a variety of tasks in my field. And there's others I hate and won't do. But other people like the ones I hate, it's their comfort zone so it usually works out. But not always! Sometimes I'm stuck doing shit I despise!
