in 1997 (first summer of Uni) I worked in Greenwich, Connecticut in a very affluent neighbourhood, but on the worst house on the road, my face dropped when i saw it.
General handyman type doings for a very strange man, even his kids called him Dracula!
Highlights were stripping then painting a long V shaped roof facia, only to discover that he had given me the top coat instead of the undercoat, meaning i had to strip it all again and paint it for a third time! Getting electrocuted, and falling off a ladder and knocking myself silly! A bag full of spicy maryland crabs that it took about 4 hours to eat!
Did get to Amish country, Philly, Washington DC (he had a house there too) where the tenants had left the dog, so when we turned up it went metal and ran off down the road!
He had about 25 aircon units in his garage that he sold to unsuspecting bargain hunters and none in the house! Yep!
saving grace was NYC which was easy to reach on the MNR.
The day i left the property was one of the happiest days of my life!
happy days!
