But I wonder a bit about the ind. cont. issue because they are using the hiring person's materials, and are probably acting under their direction in some if not many cases.
Do you think a day laborer could install a faucet for me? I can't get the, uh, bolts (?) to loosen. I did figure out how to turn off the water, though.

1) Don't day laborers use your tools typically?
2) Take it to the handyman board. Which bolts? The ones holding the faucet to the sink? Or the ones connecting the feed tubes to the water supply? Either way, get some WD-40. Moisten thoroughly (put a towel underneath to catch trips). Let sit for 10-15 minutes; then try again. If that doesn't work, find a strong man to blow, and get some free labor.
