[uh-oh]

hungover. got drunk last night by my lonesome watching reruns of mountain men. didnt have to work until 9 today, and knew i'd have to clean out and repaint the paint booth at work.

this is me in da underthing with my nigga kvothe. he is out of the picture. but yea i had to get in there, you cant really see the sides, but its a tunnel just big enough that i can crouch and hunch over and make it through it. using a big scraper thing on a STICK. i had to get all the dust and paint vapor shit off of all the walls in the tunnel. at the end of the tunnel it goes up like a big chimney. the boss was cleaning the fan and the top of the chimney since it was easy. just stand on a ladder. i had to climb in the tunnel, cleaning the tunnel. then where i could stand up in the chimney thing i had to scrape everything off that so i got tons of dust falling on me. shit sucked yo.



this second picture doesnt capture the pure amount of filth like i was hoping for. that sock on my head and mask is supposed to be white if that paints a picture. and that black shit on my arms was all over my neck because my head is too big for a regular painter sock thing.



so after cleaning the booth out completely. got to to repaint the whole thing white. overspray from painting cars makes the booth get darker after awhile. so you respray everything white so its stupid bright in there for the painter so he can see fuckups and dont fuck up. after painting that and hosing down the whole paintline and cleaning it and shit it was lunchtime.

thought i'd be going home. wrong. took a short lunch. smashed some chicken nuggets and came back. had to sand an overall, which was a corvette. overall meaning everything needs sanded the whole cars getting painted. other than trim and shit. busted that out in a little over an hour, and shits gonna be perfect yo. smooth as shit. this is when i just started sanding tho you can see the primer aint been sanded yet or nothing



then after that they gave me this old cop car. piece of SHIT. the hood was all thats getting painted. the old paint was failing, so i had to strip the whole thing down to the metal. this is the early stages. i just used a razor where it was flaking off already, to just take as much as would come off that wasnt sticking. then used the big DA sander thing to cut the fuck out of the rest of it down to metal, then with the hand/palm sander DA's got it smooth and ready for primer.



was done by 2 cuz i'm a G.

but word figured i'd give you motherfuckers an insight into what i do on a daily basis. this was just from 9-2. usually it's 8-5, monday through friday. kills me yo. 349.67 or some shit a week after taxes. and i'm probably gonna owe money come income tax time because i think i filled my shit out wrong and im too much of a faggot to change it until i know for sure that i owe money.
