Shoutout to the old guy who taught me drywall at the Habitat site

Met this retired contractor named Ron at a Habitat build in Phoenix a few years back. He showed me how to hold a 6 inch knife so your wrist doesn't cramp up after a few hours. I still think about that trick every time I'm taping a corner.

Ngl, Ron probably watches every home renovation show like a hawk and yells at the TV. My dad was a mason for 40 years and he still points out bad brickwork on buildings we drive past. Those old timers never really retire from being disappointed in half-assed work.

Man, now I'm just picturing Ron in a corner somewhere getting mad at all the bad drywall work the rest of us are doing.
