Household Blues (1929)

Monte and Vernon are incompetent window washer and janitor, respectively, and cross boss Bobby Burns, getting fired. They get new jobs moving and interior decorating. At a client's home, Monte is frustrated by his inability to put a stack of books into a hope chest, and starts a book-throwing fight with Dent. Afterward, the room is left in an oddly, but mildly redecorated state.
