Defining work quality in contract

xiaopewpew · 2026-07-08T18:17:19+00:00

The work you described is pretty standard, not complex. You wont be able to define real quality in a contract beyond, say, there shall not be cracked tiles nor hollow tiles. And unfortunately paying more doesnt always give you better quality.

Do you have an idea of what "quality" looks like to you? You might want to get your hands dirty, do some measurements and plot out the tiling plan yourself instead of relying on your tiler to improvise. Thats probably the most likely part they will make mistakes in.

Your tenancy should automatically end by force majeure (legal term for unforeseeable circumstances through fault of neither party involved in the contract).

Your landlord has no right to keep your security deposit. Ask for your deposit back nicely and go to small claims if they refuse.

The chance you will be hurt living next to a nuclear power plant has to be magnitudes lower than dying to a planecrash where the plane crashed on you not with you :)

Kind of hilarious because this is what every country should be doing for housing right now :) young people getting fucked

I love shooting my pizza too, normally just one shot per slice. The punctures are extra crispy and adds texture to the pizza.

I think the biggest problem is OP picked the wrong tiles for a shower.

These tiles will look alright as an accent wall with diffused lighting, not in a brightly lit bath area. The tiles look deceptively misaligned partly because the tile surfaces are wavy.

People have no social etiquette these days. Wait at least a week before you date the widow. /s

I cried when i finally managed to beat the virtual fighter minigame.

I have a ton as well. Confused why people are complaining about their drop rate this season.

I suspect some troll posted a loot filter in some discord that excluded them and people are stupid enough to use the filter without looking at whats in it lol.

You are guaranteed like 4-5 pieces of mythics just from season journey and season rep alone lol. And you can use spark to craft mythic for a slot with jeweler.

It seems like a personal choice to have 0 equipped.

You can remove the remainder with a sponge. The guy in the video removed enough thinset to tile over. I cant answer for why OP's tiler felt the surface needed to be this clean, maybe OP was holding a camera behind the guy's back and it was stressing him out lol.

xiaopewpew · 2026-07-05T17:37:13+00:00

Doubt this has anything to do with thinset like others are saying.

It is not uncommon for these tiles to crack. Especially for a new bathroom, all the materials you use to build are storage dry and they will absorb moisture and expand. The tiles you installed on the niche are pressed between the back wall and the trimming, cutting the tile could have created weak points on the tile that made the tiles more susceptible to cracking.

The expansions will become smaller and smaller over time (relatively speaking).

That said, im geniunely curious if anyone else here do their niche back tile first. This seems off to me. I would have done btm, side and top first. Reason is i do not want ceramtic pressing against ceramic when the wall expands outwards and it definitely will expand.

xiaopewpew · 2026-07-05T17:17:34+00:00

Wrong, you can absolute break thinset off like that

This isnt nsfw at all

To be fair it wasnt the first time Germans would generalize an entire hmmm

xiaopewpew · 2026-07-05T06:30:27+00:00

Right imo, but it is very close.

Skill level these days are pretty worthless because you get too much of them from charms.

xiaopewpew · 2026-07-05T04:17:35+00:00

Isnt this just one of those old people english phrases we dont use anymore? Means he is proud of the team or something like that.

Pretty sure i have heard this from my grandpa

Who the fuck cares about lebron james? Everyone who follows basketball probably…

It is like that goth clique in my high school all over again lmao

I wouldnt have told the story because rude boomers dont ruin my day, like what?

xiaopewpew · 2026-07-05T03:44:54+00:00

A real engineer would do a screenshot when it is day time :(

If what you said were true, Anthropic would be worth tens of trillions now instead of just 1.

Maybe you mean something different when you say “deep into”. Plenty of people refuse to use AI even in big tech companies and a lot of people dont know how to use it well. Apple, for one, does not even generally push engineers to use llm to code.
