This is ( 1 of ) my kids 16th birthday banner. I’m assuming the prices are for the west coast? I think gas is still 3.27 in the dong of the country ( Florida )?
Editing, as a 8 year resident of Florida and a 10th grade high school dropout, I’m qualified to say it’s Americas dong
Dam it! I did it again! These projects keep getting out of hand. This was going to be a simple 4 person in ground hot tub!
Lost my awesome job garage sale soon, buy my stuff , enable my foolishness
im sorry man thats terrible news, hopefully your eating well and staying healthy
On the upside more time to ride?
I am happy to say a human being surprised me today. I got fired for breaking a utility about 3 weeks ago. We work as a team me operating an excavator, my ground man shoots grade for me and keeps me from breaking stuff.
Well I fucking broke something that I fixed in 15 minutes, but I managed to get us both fired ( first time In my 51 years!)
My ground man texted me with a job interview today. If I can get the company to go union, I’m golden. Thank goodness not everyone sucks!
Thank whoever you want to for decent, coworkers who will repay the kindness you fronted. People who reciprocate your kindness are the salt of the earth. Be that guy!
Dam straight I got hired! Thank his noodely appendages!
I’m pretty sure my hard hat stickers clinched it for me. He is in a bind and has a journeyman who can’t operate.
He said I really need someone good on a hoe! Smiling I pointed to my hard hat and said., well I’m not a pimp, so you are in luck!
So good to be employed and have my faith in my fellow humans bolstered.
Hi, I need to put my self on the lick me wall . In an hour I’m going to meet my old boss for a fist fight. It will be one of the first I ever “started “ he assured me ( with out my asking) he’d go to bat and get fired for his crew. I got fired 3 weeks ago for bull shit. My petty ass lashes out at him today. He changed me to a fight. I’m 51 he is 30. I’m going to fight him in a parking lot. If I kill this jack ass he agreed to this and suggested it, I just said ABSOLUTELY!
I’m a jack ass, take the high road, but when I hurt this lying pos he asked for it. What kind of coward picks on someone 29 years older than them? I could get hurt ! Elder abuse!!!
if he hits first you are defending yourself
For anybody else reading this, please hold your grudge matches inside a ring with a trained referee.
Yes good advice, as many of you know I’m a jackass from time to time. I’m working on it.
Grown men can kill each other with 1 punch
I want one of them and the big jackhammers too
Well? Did ya kick his teeth in or what? Old man strength has to count for something right?
Well, since I got rightfully called on the carpet and friends will do that for you I was trying not to glorify my bad behavior. I was able to end the conflict with a couple of well placed leg kicks and true to form , as soon as I start getting the advantage, I start feeling like a jackass so after I kicked him in the leg a few times because people are always looking at your hands. I asked him if he just wanted to make an apology and we could stop this cause I didn’t wanna hurt anybody.
It might be helpful to understand that I started construction in a time before we moved on to be more professional and civilized. I grew up the core with men im the house that were not my dad, they had no love for me, but plenty oh slaps. quite often. If I lost a fight, I’d have to go fight again, which basically I meant getting my butt kicked again And the reality is I am a super kind person who doesn’t take any joy and hurting someone and a fight for, well , i I quickly lose any interest in if it’s not a contest I just feel like a bully and a jackass.
And god help me if I ever cost someone their teeth. My experience with punching people in the mouth has been bad hand cuts with awful infection after
My stuff is usually below the shoulders and I have been knocked the fuck out by random people more than once, not some navy seal, some dude who just, clocked me , it happens. Smart people use their words, it’s what I prefer, sigh
how i read your story "In this ted talk ill explain the difference between the two kinds of people with cauliflower ear… "
I’m just giving you a little shit for not finishing the story . I knew you’d do no more than box his ears. Hopefully he is a little wiser, never bull shit you crew - it won’t go like you think it will and honestly even in modern construction and the soft sparkie life actual fights happen over dishonesty. At the very least you’ll get what you deserve one way or another
My boss and his boss just had to pay out the ass for bullshiting me and im kind of proud of myself for how it worked out: you reap what you sow or malicious compliance or consequences of your actions, whatever flavor you like.
I do a weird hybrid roll so even though I’m union i have to personally negotiate my wages which is a pain and the reason my boss is struggling. i manage accounts and deal directly with customers as a rep for the company providing quotes and dealing with the money side of work as well as coordinating projects and manpower to the tune of about 1-2.5million annually and i know all the profit margins and dirty details of how the sausage gets made. not the biggest fish but i kept the office jockeys paid when times are slow as all my work is off recession, when work slows im busy and when its busy im really busy.
absolute minimum to get someone to do the work i do is 120% of scale with a bunch of extra fringe but you cant drop into my role you kinda have to grow it from scratch. i was managing 7 different accounts that are important to the company for one reason or another and at the worst was pulling 60s every week for about 3 years, during the last recession. i negotiated 115% scale with some serious fringe to make the last bit and was doing fine in my little world when with the agreement to keep this rate even when times got slow because it was just the type of work i do and it happens. the way my work went i finally hit a slow patch and was thankful to only be work 32hrs or less a week for about two months when they dropped my scale. just said “times are slow so were making cuts”. at this time i had no big jobs but had gotten signed contracts for almost a cool million just waiting on the schedule starts, absolute bull shit and i told them.
i said if I’m not getting paid to do the administrative work then you need to get someone to do it. ill just work 40 with my tools and you can pound sand. to manage my workload they had to higher another PM (150k) a PE (45k) a GF (150-200k) and two more JW in vans (140-160k). i was nice about it and actually trained the pm a little on how much i had to take care of. i literally ran 8 jobs at the same time often and that was my metric for when to call in extra labor. idiots - they had such a golden goose and they just ate it.
I’m happy working less and no stress and they saved 10% on my wage. i get to put my kids on the bus every morning and only did 20k in overtime last year. got time to fuck with my batteries and skateboards, and help with my kids homework. life is good. Never going back
