We just this the Army joke a few hours ago.
Yeah. Since I commented, I’ve seen this in usersub at least twice.
TheBadDad
So is he copying the Army version thats on the front page this quickly? ??♂️
Am I supposed to believe that just anyone can make signs and film themselves?!

Yeah, but these were posted on tiktoks a couple days ago so there will be more copies.

Alright, that was clever. And I've never seen this joke before! As a construction worker, I'd say at least half are dumb.

My husband works union construction for less hours, less stress and more money than I do as a nurse. He figured something out. That’s smart

Why I never reapond in a timely manner
LiveB8
I’ve worked with many a project manager for tier one projects, how you guys manage it without going insane is a mystery.
End of the day I blame the architect and broader client side project manager for not engaging anyone and doing their own thing
M4Firefly
if a system is functioning as it should, the person in charge SHOULD be always be more competent
david987987
I might disagree with that, what I’ve seen in engineering. Smart engineers end up in charge, but often don’t have the skill set for managing

As a construction site temporary restroom engineer/delivery driver, I can also confirm.
CongratsYouAreHereNow
As a guy who’s had a series of fucking imbeciles as sales managers... I’d per in your hard hat given the chance
justdoingmybest
As a construction estimator, it sounds like a field problem...
AdamSan3000
You shouldn't have got involved on this one. You're about to get crucified. You guys are terrible.
Agreed 3000% last job was only short 57% of what it took to build. I made it up but damn
jellymustache
I accidentally missed an entire floor worth of drywall once. $40k...
Holy fuck, those estimating multipliers are a bitch
Yeasd
Guy at a project I was on missed rebar... on a bridge. Company is huge so they managed to eat up the 1 million he missed.
As an owner of a small construction company, you guys are the absolute worst!
Yep, blame the estimator run jobs into the ground, make good money doing it
CoxZuckerMachine
As a guy whose dad was an accountant/CFO for local small construction companies...you fucks are the absolute worst!
As someone who just got called a fuck, please explain what's so bad about the hard working little guy?
As a fuck who is the worst, I'm grateful for my job, love my company and try my best to run good work. 20 years on I've only had 1 bad job.
electronicbovine
So how much does that one job haunt you?
Not a single damned thing!
Immensely, I got handed a $900k small.prokect that was really a $1.4 million dollar project. I've never felt worse about myself 1/
ZiggyStardust80085
As an architect all of you are the absolute worst!
If you would capture my God damn markups it wouldn't be a problem
You know I really love how this is turning into every possible subsect of the construction world hurling stones at each other
torpthorkertoo
Sounds like something an apprentice would say...?
I really feel like if I had a bucket of stones and an architect had a bucket of stones....let's just say I would put my money on me.

Haha, can confirm, also a construction project manager v
I'm electrical, design build work lately. No you can't cram 5" of light fixture into a 5" space, I need clearance for heat and hardware

Pretty sure construction worker just riding hype train from Army dude. No different than tiktokers stealing audio from other people.
