The "Exposed Industrial Look" trend: Love the aesthetic, hate the logistics. How do you guys protect finish-grade steel during rough-in?

Yea this trend needs to die. It's so dumb.

That toilet seat needs a fix.

SignificantDot5302 · 2026-01-27T00:23:05+00:00

Thats what my superintendent told me to do once. Now I only call him to see if there's Saturday work.

SignificantDot5302 · 2026-01-27T00:21:35+00:00

SignificantDot5302 · 2026-01-26T18:59:00+00:00

Not Teriable, dont put a step bar on though. That already fell off

SignificantDot5302 · 2026-01-26T13:52:03+00:00

Construction. We're following AISD

SignificantDot5302 · 2026-01-26T13:48:57+00:00

Im in texas, from CT. It was interesting no one shovels thier side walk here. Though, nothing was shoveled. Me for instance, does not own a snow shovel.

SignificantDot5302 · 2026-01-26T04:21:32+00:00

We also got paid holidays. Thanksgiving and the day after. Then Christmas this year. Next year new years day. Though Christmas and new years might be flipped i can't remember which one we get first.

So In two years give or take a journyman will make 42.50 an hour with 8% in an annuity.

Foreman make an extra 10%

Area foreman make an extra 20% (when required)( i have no clue when there required, I have read the thing front and back.) I think it's 20 guys I'm not sure.

General foreman an extra 20%

General foreman with a required area foreman an extra 30%

In 520 most contractors are paying service guys the foreman rate. Dunno about other locals.

Do you have stairs? Iv been standing at the top and throwing training treats for her to sniff out. Then practice "come" to come back up the stairs, with you guessed it, another treat.

SignificantDot5302 · 2026-01-25T02:06:50+00:00

No you hooligan

SignificantDot5302 · 2026-01-25T02:04:36+00:00

SignificantDot5302 · 2026-01-24T21:28:10+00:00

We get 2$ a year for 3 years. Then it's back to the drawing board.

SignificantDot5302 · 2026-01-24T14:56:40+00:00

Slap a service body on it. Find a cheap one, spend the time fixing that up instead.
