No offense, but I've never understood why people install electrical devices in the boxes before the drywall. There's a reason for the ears on the devices. They should be sitting up against the drywall when everything is complete and the hole cut for the box should be exactly the same as the box.
Quoted from TheLaw:I "can do" drywalling but yeah it's a fucking pain. Do everything you can to sand as little as possible has become my mantra. If it means more really thin coats then I'll do that.
Experienced tapers sand off about 10% of what they put on. Homeowners that have no idea what they're doing, sand off about 75%.
Quoted from ovfdfireman:Hate hanging it drywall though. Anyone can do that.
Careful. Most tapers won't tape and mud if a homeowner hung the rock. More than once, I've seen the sheets installed vertically. DOH!!
