It’s not a landlord special unless it’s got some bugs caught in layers of white paint.
Also cabinets painted shut and paint over the knobs and hardware on all the doors.
I really hate paint on hinges more than anything else. It is so ridiculously easy to unscrew a door first. Maybe it's justifiable for exterior doors if you can't leave the property unsecured while the paint dries, but there's no excuse for interior doors.
When you're getting paid per job (by a landlord) you don't waste time removing doors. There's no "pride in your work" either. The AC doesn't get turned on until next week. Sometimes the water doesn't either, so every extra minute there sucks.
You also just follow whatever the last guy did. If I'm first, I cut in fixtures. It's just as fast as covering them in paint.
