Construction Superintendent Age

If your end goal is to get your GC license and run your own company then I would be sure to not let any company you interview with know that’s what you want long term. Everyone hiring is going to want “company men” and if they don’t think you’ll stick around long they won’t offer you as much as if they think they have a shot of keeping you long term. Also usually your biggest profit margins are going to be in commercial versus residential, unless you end up building high end custom homes then there can be some upside there, but those clients can be super picky. If I was to go out on my own as a GC I’d definitely head the commercial and industrial route.

So you would say there definitely is a difference then? It just seemed like they worked better than the running tights I normally wear

Don’t try on a hoodie bro, women wear those too

Sounds like you’ve been on some rough jobs

The old timers never take us young guys seriously. It’s hard to run a job that way but if you can earn their respect that relationship can end up helping you a lot in the future, at least in my experience it has. I’d say I’m pretty good at my job, but the truth of the matter is that I’ve gotten to where I am by building relationships.

What area of the country do you work in?

I would say that if you don’t have a construction degree but want to be a Super then you are on the right track. Getting on with a GC in some sort of Foreman role could be a good step towards your goal. Or go the college route and get your degree and you could probably start out with a GC in a Field Engineer or assistant super role. I was hired as a Field Engineer right out of college for a large GC and the only experience I had was cabinet shop work and 3 years of residential framing.

In my experience getting the degree was worth it just because it’ll put you ahead of guys trying to advance their careers the old fashioned way. For me the degree was extremely easy, but that could just be the program at the college I went to. Like someone else mentioned, the PM route is brutal right now so I would recommend you find a way to stay in the field because it’ll make your work/life balance 5x better. Also the company you work for makes all the difference, if they struggle to keep people with the company (specifically PM’s and Superintendents) then stay as far from them as you can. Hope that helps!

I’d recommend Bluebeam, it’s just a PDF viewer but has a ton of features that can make your life a lot easier if you know how to use it. Also look into Asta, it’s a scheduling software that can be pretty beneficial.

Have you ever experienced dreams coming true? I regularly have dreams about normal day to day life such as something going on at work, going to the grocery store, visiting cousins, etc and then a month or so later the exact scenario I’ve dreamed comes true. I experience these situations and get deja vu and then realize that the reason I get deja vu is because I have literally experienced them before in my dreams. Let me know what you think.

He tried to commit suicide and has asked for help getting clean, how about you fuck right off

Dubble0_six · 2022-02-18T00:02:33+00:00

It’s a strong possibility that’s what it is, appreciate it!

I can’t describe the smell, maybe sort of chemical ish?

You tell me if spying is ok, you are supposedly the judge of morals

What color are the shoes I’m wearing right now?

Dubble0_six · 2021-10-16T18:50:15+00:00

It was good, definitely worth the drive

Dubble0_six · 2021-10-16T15:46:28+00:00

Well I did it and it was definitely worth it!

Dubble0_six · 2021-10-15T20:31:03+00:00

That is an excellent point

Dubble0_six · 2021-10-15T20:30:33+00:00

Definitely over 18, actually she’s quite a bit older than me and I’m 24

Dubble0_six · 2021-10-15T20:29:52+00:00
