A+ A-

With a sigh of frustration and an amused chuckle, we often find ourselves asking the question: “When will people learn that construction requires planning?”. Admittedly, not all construction takes a genius to do it, and DIY renovations can turn out spectacularly and wallet-friendly. But the time has come to acknowledge that some jobs require a professional hand, and those professionals are required to not be drunk on the job! You can chalk it down to bad planning, inappropriate inebriation, or sometimes just sheer bad luck. Whatever the cause, these construction fails will absolutely never fail to make us laugh.
