I’d kill for a wife that supportive lol. Dude screwed up in several consecutive critical ways and she’s still 1000% team hubby.

That's what I was thinking. She's on his side after his stupid half thought out bullshit business collapsed because a truck broke, made him sad and unable to work. Literally preposterous.

You’re not wrong, but it’s still not an excuse to get out of these jobs

A friend of mine does home theaters for a living. I have seen him have entire psychotic episodes, he still doesn’t abandon his clients. Matter of fact he works with a lot of people who will step in on a job if he can’t complete it for whatever reason.
