I work at a body shop and sometimes you just get behind. And also it seems like its hard to make the paint to just give it time young grashoppa lol

The guy shouldn't have told you it would be done Thursday. I do bodywork and paint and I make no schedule promises, only that I will work as efficiently as possible.

Unfortunately, it'* a fairly standard thing to say "tomorrow" without taking workload into account.
If they do a good job, I wouldn't be too upset if they get behind schedule.

it takes a lot longer than a day to do a good paint job

At least your not in my shoes. I dropped my 02 off on 2/9 to have the front bumper repaired from a minor bump. They were also to strip the hood and repaint it too. I was told 3-4 days. They still have my car 
Yesterday I was told they didn't like how the hood turned out and they were gonna do it again butthey would have it ready this Tuesday. I won't even have a chance to pick it up until next Saturday because of my work schedule. :(
