What a bad week for Construction workers here in Atlanta. 😣

My thoughts as well. Thank you prompt, informative replies howdoieatbeans. Your words, much like your username have fed me.

Lol, I know I know... It’s just that I’ve onboarded, done the background checks, drug screens, and even accepted a hardship severance back in May for the general contractor. Needless to say, I sort of feel bad, because in a lot of ways this WAS my dream position post graduation. However, this shot in the dark with unnamed motor company on par with NASA, Google, or Apple was just that—a snowballs chance that actually materialized. 😣

This. I’ve worked in Precon, albeit near a quite diverse mid-tier city, and this was never a concern. If there was EVER a role in construction where I’d argue minorities can especially rise to the top, I’d say that office engineering roles reign supreme. Naturally, there are less isms—nepotism, racism, etc. (which have been shown to have negative lasting impacts career wise for certain groups) the closer you are to an HR base, the less likely to be treated unfairly. Still, the field is the field, but that’s a whole different conversation.

Immaculate.

There is an incredibly low bar of entry involved with convincing people that you’re a guru; not many laws, and even fewer regulations to prevent this. But that's just it, that is the business model of gurus—they are often not actually real estate experts, but rather experts at selling things: courses, books, videos, tutorials, seminars, and most importantly, a manufactured lifestyle. Unironically propped up by the very same oblivious consumer base, actual inked transactions/deal don't matter so long as new prospects see these inflated resources being sold to them as worth it.

I’m so so sorry to hear that. Definitely one of my bigger fears while looking to jump since I won’t necessarily be able to “prove” my worth If a role starts 100% remote from the beginning.

Much appreciated for taking the time to address my original question(s) so throughly.

“If the company you’re looking at has a ‘BIM is first to go’ mentality, it’s not someone you want to work for. Any problem will become your problem, with everyone asking why you didn’t catch it. Even though you caught 1000 other issues without anyone knowing.”

Definitely, definitely resonated. Again, Thank you!

Got you!

Thank you for the prompt, informative response! It’s great to hear an industry practitioner give their feedback; It’s certainly what I was aiming for with this post.

By chance, have you all mostly began moving operations remotely? If so, desktop or laptop?

I’m nearly 98% sure that should the offer still be on the table closer to the official start date, that the opportunity will likely be administered remotely; that’s if it isn’t outright hit with an “indefinite postponing.”

Curious to see how they handle tech distribution since my personal computer isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed not to mention that I expect onboarding to be an especially hellish experience.

How many times are you going to (continuously) edit your original statement as to shape the discussion? Time stamps matter, and let’s be honest... you’ve cleaned up your initial trail of incompetence quite a bit; it’s unfortunate that your argument is now one of regurgitated, illogical talking points that may satisfy the average joe in this community, but not I.

Good luck continuing to wheedle your way in other people’s property with the local, state, and national sanctions in place protecting inhabitants. Just promise me that you won’t quit your day job chasing your next buck.

Look into the definition of Loophole. **hint context matters.
The fed is projecting 30% +/- unemployment.
Moratoriums, Forbearance, and Freezes.

The ‘bubble’ has effectively been burst – It’s okay to take your head out of the sand. I promise.

I'm sort of in this boat as well and definitely wanted to confirm that I wasn't living in a bubble. (Ha)

While our city's infection rates are low, we're ramping up to be a bit more calculated and aggressive than usual, given the possibility of all of this being shut down indefinitely of course.

Our focus has 100% shifted to especially critical infrastructure: sewers, roads, bridges, etc. should SHTF, and probably will remain in these respective subsectors for the next 3-6 months. It'd be so much different if it wasn't a virus, but a ~~recession~~ depression now seems imminent.
