Vancouver’s Best Painters Remembers Ontario

As if there wasn’t enough to worry about as a painting contractor, winter loves to introduce complications…not so much for the Vancouver painter, painters painting in the Vancouver area but more so for the Ontario painter.   I remember a particularly ugly, stormy day just before Christmas in Ontario, nearly twenty years ago.  My guys and I were frantically trying to finish a job and get on the road ahead or rush hour traffic.  Well, the best laid plans of mice and men…..We didn’t get out on the road until 4: 15 pm  –just in the nick of too late.  It took an hour to get down to the main highway…..normallly a 10 minutes drive—and another hour oon the highway to get to our exit, which was one exit away.

During our two hour ordeal we saw at least a down accidents and countless cars stalled on the streets and hapless tractor trailer trucks stuck on hills.  I realized after I dropped off my guys that I was better off in a restaurant for a few hours than fuming over what I couldnt change.
