Will they still get to have booze in their desk drawers?PurpleJ said:I built my own fucking fence with my Cambodian neighbor. Bet him that it wouldn't last 5 years without concrete forms for the fence posts and proper spacing in between boreds (cuts down on wind resistance by letting it flow through). Fence fell down this year after only 2 years and I won the bet. This time we do it my way and he pays for concrete (the bet was that I would supply the boards the first time around and if it fell he would pay the cost to rebuild).
What does this have to do with the story? Nothing. Just wanted to share.
Oh and if you think the worker VISA thing is bad in blue collar work, go work for Microsoft or any tech/IT company. They'll have you speaking punjab in a week and making 20K coming out of school. -
Commercial jobs don't have the stupid schedules that the resi guys get to deal with. Unless you're at the end or have a shitty PM/Super.golddog17 said:

Always was late...terrible communication and there was always some excuse on why he couldn't do something. If they showed up at all.
Meanwhile.....the landscapers who put in the yard and sprinkler system barely spoke a lick of fucking english. On time everytime....got shit done and his communication was better than the white honkeys smoking ciggies and checking their phones every two minutes.
Fence guy was a couple of Mexicans also....SOB's dug the post holes out with a manual post hole digger. I almost checked into the hospital just watching them. Oh and they fired out the fence in no time either and did what they said they would do.

Alot of residential contractors / subcontractors are wannabes anyway -
All sectors have their shitty schedules, but schools are the worst. 20 million + projects that have to be completed in one year or less. No exception, it has to open September 1st + / -TommySQC said:

When I was in high school I was asked to swamp cherries. So I got up at 4 AM, went and worked my ass off for 14 fucking hours. Got home at 7 PM ... fell asleep.
Never went back.
About a year later I got asked if I wanted to thin apples ... looked easier than swamping cherries. So I figured what the fuck. Got up in the trees, split my thumbnail ... said fuck this ... left to get something to eat.
Never went back.

Yep. And if you're so fucking smart, why build the same fence twice?sarktastic said:Why did you hire them?
