seams are taped and mud is mudded. needs to be sanded and its unclear who will end up doing that. he tried to sell me on the idea that sam wouldnt pay for it but what he meant was i dont want to be paid less for more work. ive already said i will paint. tomorrow early is clean up though the worst of it is gone.  havent really examined it up close but it seems like a reasonably good job for what can be expected. im sure ill find something new to complain about tomorrow.

once he got to work he was pretty efficient. worked for six hours with about an hour of downtime but he needed to clean up after removing a huge chunk of the ceiling with what looks to be a mini circular saw. was more than a little bit dusty. overall its about a sheet and a half of sheetrock which he managed to screw into place without assistance. in pieces not as a whole.
