    I actually didn't think it was that bad. Looked, little drop of blood, no biggie. Grabbed the pliers, went back to work. Thirty seconds the pliers slipped out of my hand. I was like WTF?!?! Looked down and my hand was just smeared in red.

    Ugh.....ALL carpet is out, only pad is left on the stairs now. Going to finish it off tomorrow night after a 14 hour day between the two jobs (0730-1630 and 1700-2130 straight from one to the other).

    I HATE pulling all the damn staples on stairway padding.

    LOL! Stairs are the fucking worst!!!!! Before I got into sales thats all I did was deliver the new flooring and rip out the old. Ive been stabbed by those staples so many times I cant even begin to count, probably gallons of bloods Ive lost over the years. Whats worse is when you kneel on one!

    Want no part of that. I made sure I wore shoes and watched wherever I sat or kneeled very carefully. I screwed up while I was cleaning the back room a few weeks ago and stepped on a board w/a nail, driving it into my heel to the bone. No fun there.

    Killer! Got home from the AZ today and my 3 month pregnant wife had done the stairs! All I have to do is sweep, and load what's left in the truck for disposal! I may be able to relax late tomorrow night.

    we have taller carpet up stairs. not sure what its called but its taller than normal stuff but not shag. its a pain in the ass to vacume i'll tell you that. but it looks great and is soft.

    downstairs there is burber(sp) and i don't like it. i guess its ok for a game room/ extra living room but once we finish the rest of the basement i'm tempted to go a different route.

    our house was a display so we didn't have any input on that stuff.
