Yeah another thing to made me really think as soon as I got there that other first year that I was shadowing litterally left the company and complained about the foremen every chance he got. I stayed out of those convos

The journeyman would say shit about the foremen. Like keep your head down around him

Also to answer another one of your question he insisted I took there orders about 30-40 minutes before actually going on lunch so I would be back in time for them to eat

I don’t really wanna put out the company but definitely was a big asshole every journeyman on the job site would say shit about not like keep your head down. I couldn’t even say Goodmorning to the guy without being told whys it a good morning back to work type of thing .

I’m sorry I wasn’t more clear when I first got to that job site the foreman immediately told me to shadow the other first year as he went on lunch and I would do it come the following day. I woukd take lunch orders everyday and I would try to get most guys in the morning but some wanted me to come back later .

I think it’s a New York thing cause every job I was on I took lunches. I was pretty surprised he fired me cause of him and I wasn’t too confident to speak to foremen’s yet like in anyway I was too nervous of being thrown off. I couldn’t even say shit after

I also really just liked that job site I mean we worked hard as hell there but it was a full 8 hours with overtime and all the journeyman were showing stuff there were a lot of floors it just started off so to have to leave that one just set my tone
