Loved this video! Amazing that the Health Inspector didn't ding them over that faucet; it's on a required handwashing station, after all.
At least no roaches scrambled away when you took the sink off.

Roaches have standards too.
Next time you are driving in a difficult screw like that the spinning cover on the driver extension in designed to slide over the screw so it won't wobble off and makes driving it in much much easier.
I've worked in the restaurant business for over 25 years. Nastiest shit I've ever seen. Steve is trying to fix it the best he can for as cheap as he can. I can only imagine the other shortcuts this restaurant takes.
I have watched your videos for a long time now. I have learned a couple things from you as I do all my own home repairs. Thank you for that. I was the type of kid that my father had me doing everything from lawn care, automotive repair, plumbing, electrical all the way up to the roof for roofing. One thing I have learned is you never know enough and to always keep learning. YOU DOG IS SO AMAZING. I had one that looked just like her. He was my best friend and when we first got him he was immediately attached to me. I called him my little Buddy and the name stuck. Buddy lived for 7 years until one day a German Shepard took my best friend away from me. He helped me through some rough times. What breed is she? I always thought mine was a chihuahua but the very fluffy head and neck led me to believe something else. He looked identical to your girl, white coat with the spot on the eye, except his was black. Keep up the videos.
Remember to disinfect your tools afterwards.
You should do a tee that says “it’s a real shit show”😂I’d def buy that one!

Fun fact, If you strip a phillips screw head ( x ) , then spin and strip the hELL out of it.... then you can use a robertson Bit ( square ) in the stripped phillips head and it works like a charm... Your welcome from Canada :)
You are the most confident person I have ever seen. You don't back down from any job. I truly enjoy your videos, keep it real. I wish I would have found your channel sooner.
"Want a new faucet?" Owner then goes into tirade about tradesman bidding low to come back. Sounds like he's denied a faucet job before.
Steve: This rusted old brake caliper from a 1970 Buick should work to hold the sink up. Deli Man: You want honey ham? Buffalo Turkey? Hello? Steve from back room: What a shit show.

I've seen worse, I did a sink in a 100 + year old house in Hawaii. This had add on bathrooms built on an outside corner (probably added in the 30's). This was also single wall construction. I volunteered to do the job for my 80 year old neighbor, after the last guy screwed up seriously on the lower bathroom. I ended up rebuilding a lot of wall, refitted the water shut off valves , and had to redo the whole drain system. He did pay for all materials and wanted to give me more money than I wanted. He's like an uncle to me, so we agreed to my price plus a six pack to call it even. That faucet build up was nothing compared to uncle's. He had the old school individual valves and faucet.
