A homeowner in Cincinnati told me 'just get it close' and I had to walk off the job

I was taping a basement ceiling for him last fall and he kept saying the seams didn't need to be perfect because he was going to put up a drop ceiling. When I explained that the drywall still needs to be flat for the grid to work right, he said, 'You guys always overcomplicate things.' I packed my tools and left. Has anyone else had a client who just didn't get why our work matters?

My last "close enough" job still haunts me in the shower.

What did he say when you started packing up? Bet that shut him up real quick.
