Ass Paint
>> Wednesday, October 22, 2008
Yeah.. I know its not everyday you see a title like that. They are repainting the hallways the employees use to enter the casino. Normally this would not be a big deal. Sure you don't want to touch the walls when they are wet and you have to deal with fresh paint fumes for a couple of days, but overall a minor inconvenience.
Not the case however when they are using ass paint. I don't know what else to call it, but the normal paint fumes were .. lets just say "off". As we were leaving the building last Friday and again on Monday, there was this smell. We quickly identified that they were painting, but that didn't smell like any paint I had ever encountered. It smelled less like fresh paint and more like someone was doing some king of scat art in the hallway. I mean seriously, if you have to take an emergency dump, there are plenty of bathrooms in the facility, you should not have to resort to the closest paint can.
Even if that kind of emergency arose, I would say that its ok to just go ahead and declare that can of paint to be off limits. Go ahead and cap that bad boy off.. tight. Put some biohazard tape on the top. Then bag it. Then box it up. Put that box in another box and then mail that box to yourself and when it arrives.. SMASH IT WITH A HAMMER!
Ok.. don't really do that. It would void the purpose of sealing it up in the first place and you would now have ass paint everywhere. That was a movie reference actually and if you didn't get it.. you are missing out.
But I digress. Lets just SAY NO to ass paint. There is no reason for you to be putting a fresh coat of paint on the walls and have it smell like a porta-potty was just tipped over in the hallway. I would rather have the old paint and less ass smell. I just pray that it dries quickly and the smell goes away.

Yeah an old job I had did the same thing. Its actually a result of paint being stored without the seal on tightly and the paint goes "bad". I think the trace ammounts of ammonia in it are what gives it the "Ass smell"
From what my other friends tell me, this is the case all around. A business would rather have its employee's put up with an ass smell for a week or so then buy new paint.
