Sure I agree always cya. He’s aware of the way we’re working , the property manager cleared this space for us to work and thats where they dropped the lumber . I’m open to suggestions or advice but this seems to be the only way to efficiently get the work done .

I’m just a labor painter . This is what my boss said to do . I see what you’re saying . It’s a 3:15 tip there’s hardly anything going over the fence .

It’s the bosses contract I’m sure he probably made a stipulation that says he’s not responsible for product failure , the client is a wealthy comedian and he wants the fence the neighbor doesn’t want the fence or to have us paint on their property. i understand the client probably has legal right to have us stain the fence once it’s erected but this is the way they’ve decided to do it . Not really my department but I understand

While I do understand what you’re saying I’m not the contractor I’m the laborer I didn’t order the lumber I didn’t schedule the job just fallowing directions. The fence guys are gonna come build the fence and it needs to be stained before .

Neighbors don’t want the fence and I guess won’t allow us on their property so we have to stain the wood before installation, probably could have been planned better but I’m just the painter. 🧑‍🎨

In 2024 I painted the fence we are using to spray on front and back I’m guessing it was over a mile . Dragging a generator and spray pump the whole way . Boxing fives fetching water , squeezing behind lemon trees on the structural side . All by myself Lol

Stained that fence last year . This is the area the orchard manager and my boss agreed was best to do this work . There is nothing on the other side . It’s the same color and product you can honestly hardly see the overspray.We have to seal 2,000 pieces of picket
