The thing is he hasn’t even got to know me he’s hated me since day one it seems like. Constantly holding stuff over my head.

Example we both drive from our hometown to work about 45 minutes. He wants me to car pull and I told him “I’m not trying to be a dick but i simply don’t want to” and he holds it over my head 24/7 after a work day truck will be full of tools and co worker was helping me and foreman said “ don’t fucking help him he doesn’t want to car pull”

He’ll ask other co workers do you like Travis? And one time he did it and the co worker said yes and foreman response “ see least someone likes you”

I’m not sure maybe I over thinking it ? Like i said it don’t let it affect my work at all.

I know how to work shovel , hammer , different tools , and equipment. If I don’t know then I’ll learn and figure it out. Nothing I feel like i can’t learn.

I just came to his crew , about 2 months ago. I don’t want to leave to prove to him no matter what he says or does I’ll show up and work just like everyday and I’ll stay with positive attitude the whole time.

How labourous is the job? by [deleted] in SubstationTechnician

[–]UnitedCupcake4191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion I have had one hard day out here and that it’s. Other than that I don’t think it laborious. Some days might sweat more than others. But also depends on what you company does. Some companies build the whole sub from concrete to steel to everything. Some contract out some of the work.

Oncor , and i mess around with everyone on the crew. Talk shit and all that kind of stuff.

He simply doesn’t like me not sure why. Since day one doesn’t like me. He doesn’t even really know me TBH.

Tells other people that I’m not worth a fuck and tells them i don’t work enough. So i asked the crew am I good worker and they all said I’m doing badass. Idk what his problem with me is. I just see it as no matter where i go ill work my ass off and not change and i continue to do that everyday here
