They're back

Or at least they say that they'll be back. Of course, I'm referring to my 2 new hires. I'm not taking down the help wanted signs until these two begin to show that they are actually willing to work for me.

Update... while I was typing this 2 more guys showed up and asked for work. I told them to start tomorrow at 8:00. I told them that I will only guarantee 2 weeks work for them. Now I have a bit of a safety net.

Today's work has involved removing the remaining drywall ceiling from the front half of the original building. There is still a plaster ceiling about 1 foot above where the old drywall ceiling was. I've also started to remove radiators and the associated plumbing. I've made 2 trips to the landfill today and will probably make several more each day until this project is wrapped up. At least I'll have some help.




Based on my demolition, it looks like the entrance to the building was once in the center rather than one entrance on each side of the front. This is a picture from the inside showing the front window and the outline of what I believe to the the original entrance way.
