Painter?

[DougNH]

A few months ago, I was at Aubuchon Hardware in Meredith picking up 6 gallons of paint for a new room we built. I could not find a painter so resigned to do it myself. I have painted much in my life and probably one of the things I dislike the most. While the paint was being mixed a gentleman came in to pick up a few gallons he pre-ordered. I initiated a conversation as he seemed to have an account and looked like a professional painter. Sure enough but he is retired but doing small inside jobs for past customers. Needless to say, a few weeks later he did my job, took a week and did an excellent job. Maybe it was the $50/hour cash we agreed to or just at the right place/time and our places were less than half an hour apart. You never know, you could just hang out at a paint store…
