Hey, it's the guys who installed my kitchen counters! They sent a measuring crew to validate everything before fabrication, and I confirmed with them thay everything loomed right, but during the fabrication process, someone screwed up the citout for the apron sink. Fortunately they did it the right way and didn't cut it deep enough. But what did the installers do? Should they ask someone on site? Maybe check the original measuring and layoit diagram? Nah. Let's unplumb the sink drain, pull the cast iron sink forward, prop it up with a 1x2, and install it with a two inch gap between the apron and the cabinet front. No, that's how people are doing it these days, they tried to say. You just need to add more cabinet filler pieces to close the gap. Unbelievable.

And this was after I stopped them from running one of the counter slabs right up against one of the side walls. The natural slab wasn't long enough to allow that, so the cabinets end about 3" from the wall. No big deal, and I finished the cabinet row with a finished end piece, had already tiled under the cabinets right to the wall anyway, and installed a fancy skirting board around the visible gap space. And it solved the problem of the cabinets finishing about flush with an arch to the dining room, the trim around which would have posed a problem if I had run the cabinets right into the wall. No problem for these guys though. Without even checking to see where that slab should sit, they tried pushing it against that wall immediately, ran it into the archway trim, then pulled out an oscillating saw to carve it up to make room. Those boys were good with some things, but following a design plan or making decisions on the fly were just like in the video. I bet those guys were supposed to have installed the tub rotated 90 degrees but didn't check with the homeowner.
