I know an Asbestos crew that looks like that, they are the best in their field and in HUGE demand. Wild guys to be sure, but work hard.

User-subcontracting

We contracted, and a bunch of loud polish people showed up. They did a great job and left the site spic and span. Dont judge by appearances.

Since it's just me, pic 1 is me bidding on the job, pic 2 (middle) is me showing up for the job.

I got cold beers waiting for them at the end of the job.

...and they've got a cooler full for during the job.

Who cares? If they do the job correctly and quickly leave them alone.

Do you want the hands that work, or the hands that type?

I've had mostly solid experiences where the second photo dudes do better work than the top photo dude would have.

4 years ago | Likes 64 Dislikes 0

I'm the opposite. Top dude shows up on time and receipts shit, bottom dudes grunt at you and then leave half done to watch a game ?

...and since they didn't get checks through Physical Security, the crew that leaves, and a note to Acquisitions to start the penalties.

I kept having issues with my heater, 3 companies that my home warranty sent over couldn’t get it running without a part that was on —

Back order. Finally we hired one on our own and this toothless redneck comes in, I was instantly relieved. He fixed it no problem.

That's how sub contracting works, yes.

You'd be basically stipulating that your job doesn't happen. Rarely does a general contractor staff a full suite of specialists

They show up in high vis latex, and instead of a leather whip it's a chunk of extension cord with the casing peeled back.

That guy in the middle bottom has probably installed more drywall than the top guy has ever seen.

4 years ago | Likes 12 Dislikes 0

The left and roght bottom just need a couple more jobs to afford shirts, I presume.

You want shit done right, you need that second crew to like you

Or beers AFTER the job is done

4 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 2

Cool/cold water during the day wouldn't hurt, either.

4 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

No you don't. They're the ones that do the job, but rarely right

4 years ago | Likes 15 Dislikes 6

They didn't like you

4 years ago | Likes 27 Dislikes 3

If a professional doesn't do a good job because "they didn't like you" they deserve to be in a pool of their own blood.

4 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 15

They too incompetent to do a good job even if they wanted to.

4 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 15

because you think that the crew that arrived looking like the photo above auto makes them ignorant or dumb..? shut up karen. just shut up

4 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 4

Nope, because there are bad workers. I didn't mention anyone from the picture just the notional "second crew" as a concept.

4 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 5

Did the job get done well? I.e. did they get proper permits, did it pass inspection, is it accurate to the plan?

4 years ago | Likes 321 Dislikes 5

I.e that is

4 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

When something feels off. It’s probably off.

4 years ago | Likes 15 Dislikes 0

round here it would be a crew of amish, and it would barely pass inspection, and cause headaches for every trade after.

4 years ago | Likes 12 Dislikes 0

Just two more weeks!

Seen two rednecks build a shed in 4 hours and not skimp detail. It looked nice. 12x22 12 high. Full frame subfloor insulated 1/2

4 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Dry wall and painted even had power run to it all up to code. Don’t under estimate the quality of work from a redneck

4 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Yes to the redneck stuff but also I have watched 5 latinos do a house remodel that would make HGTV blush.

Actually see that a lot where I live. Then again I live in an area known as little Mexico in my city. Bust their ass working by day 1/2
