You're jumping to a bunch or conclusions, and some of them are
obviously wrong, Mark. The guy installed the tub and nicked it when
he was attaching it to the studs. That can only mean that his tool
slipped when driving/drilling into the flange sticking up from the
edge of the tub and he nicked something visible. Bubbling tape is
worrisome as you'll never know when the rest of the tape he did that
day will bubble up (if at all).

I agree that we're (obviously) only hearing one side of the story, but
making assumptions doesn't help clarify things. Your point about the
sub having another customer is a major point. Not all subs have crews
that they can juggle.

True, if tape is bubbling the how much is defective, bad stuff needs
to go.
