Needless to say the work he did was decent, it works so there's that, but the time it took and craftsmanship was ... shit to say the least. He didn't clean up after himself, there was wiring pieces and crap everywhere, and a one hour job took 4-5 hours, dragging the original estimated time out way longer than it should have been. Originally i envisioned a few hours of work, but it took this guy 2 days to wire out 15 outlets and 10 switches. Didn't pay him much for the favor, just wanted to gauge his work, and i terminated the friendship because he had a lot of other personal problems i simply didnt want to deal with. I didn't lose much out of it except time, but ive noticed im curtailing out all these idiot retards out of my life, simply dont have the time or patience t care to help them anymore, and my gf keeps me grounded enough to know i should know better now

It's weird i payed the guy for his work, nominally, but even for the hundred bucks i gave him it felt like i was getting ripped off. On top of that his attitude was horrible, swore all the time, dragged me into his personal problems, etc

You can't get a mexican from a Home Depot parking lot here for less than $200 PLUS lunch. A reputable tradesman won't get out of bed here for less than $300 a day and his work, with any luck will be acceptable. Also a lot of these "tradesman" have been to prison and construction is the only job that doesn't care what you are as long as you can do the work. On top of that his attitude was horrible, swore all the time, dragged me into his personal problems, etc That's just Par for the course these days...
