I've been away, so I may be wrong on the particulars here, but Elmhurst Steve painted Mac's house? Despite all the "don't get me wrong, I'm not racist but I hate black people" stuff?

I can understand Mac not wanting to completely cut off ES from calling, etc. That would be unprofessional and awkward for the 98% of listeners that don't know the backstory. But to invite an avowed racist and clear ignoramus into your home is a poor reflection upon one's character, especially since there is no doubt Mac knows about ES's, um, "controversial" statements about minorities.

I'm pretty sure that ES painting Mac's basement is a bit.

It's true. Elmhurst Steve even confirmed it in another thread and claimed that he did not paint it for free.

It's true that it's a bit or true that he painted for Mac? Like I said, I was not around for most of this and I'm just catching up on what you nutjobs have been doing.

It's true that he painted his house. He called him on the job site too supposedly.

Mac even mentioned it again a week or two later when referencing how he would redecorate the walls.

Maybe Steve is a good painter, his price is competitive & Mac doesn't care about the other stuff.

What the heck happened for ES to get the reputation that he has? I see the posts ripping him but I must have missed whatever it was that turned most board members against him.
I'm sure glad that I don't have to deal with that kind of angst! :lol: :roll:

Just a quick overview...
I recall him saying something about how he would never invite a black person to his home based on the fact that he is black.
I remember something about how he would never have relations with a white woman who had previously in her life had relations with a black guy.
Something about choosing not to work in towns populated by undesirables.
He wouldn't hire a black guy.

There's more. Just look up the ES douchebag threads. There's more than enough material.

DON'T WAIT, CALL NOW FOR A FREE EXTIMATE! WE GARANTEES OUR WORK!

I think ES said all the race stuff was just a joke. It could have been, but he is still a doosher.

Oh right. Yeah, he said all that hilarious stuff so he could win a dinner.

I'd hire Steve to paint, too. He's probably great with borders.

The stuff about not sating a woman who had been with a black man was "just a joke" to win a bet. The stuff about not hiring black people was totally legit, because his customers are the type of people who don't want untrustworthy types inside their homes. He doubled down on that.

Why do think the Highland Hillybilly hired him? :)

I'd cut off his calls because they are bad and stupid.

I'm kind of glad Mac caters to the Brand, it keeps him off Waddle and Silvy.

Don't knock Mac, I hire known racists everyday.

I doubt Dan reads anything outside of his section. I haven't read most of the statements that have been attributed to Steve.

Anyway, if you restricted your hiring of tradesmen to only those with a perfectly progressive view of race relations, you would have a tough time finding workers nor would you have a police force or fire fighters (how's that for a broad statement).

I was under the impression that all your utterances were broad statements.
