It seems we may need to cut the cables
Just got quoted $2,400 to paint a 23 by 13 foot living room. The 4 gallons of paint it takes to do the job costs about $110 at Home Depot, or around $160 if you want Sherwin Williams. This is not a particularly skilled job. You went to trade school, not medical school. You own a brush and a roller. Stop ripping people off, contractors.

I find it extremely funny that the leading opponent of funding BART complained two hours ago that BART was having problems because it was raining and then turns around and complains about the funding which is allocated to fixing the rain problem.
Oct 1, 2019: New @SFBART GM Powers out pushing a $100B tax measure for 2020 (incl. new transbay tube) right after Measure RR’s ~$3.5B gift to BART in 2016. Agency was losing riders and cash. Proof they planned more taxes before COVID. Expect another one in 2028 post-Measure RTM. abc7news.com/post/report-bar…
