So disgusted by people’s comments and judgements. You have NO context of this dude’s work company, his fellow workers, his boss, or his position and time at the company. He could have told his boss “hey man, I’m doing a little RUclips video today, that okay by you?”. If he’s been working there for a couple years, that’s a pretty chill request. So at 4:20, when everyone is eating their frosties, they get shit too? Last time I checked, buddies giving you shit at a job site is probably the most normal thing to happen. You wouldn’t know that, because you don’t actually working on a fucking job site. He even says in the video “wow, this day is all sorts of things.” Meaning, even he’s surprised he’s driving around so much. But nah, keep judging from your cubicles 👍🏻.
Nick Gaul There are days like this, and then there are those days (in them majority), when u work your @ss off. ' Guess this was one of those days, when the schedule, or the circumstances weren't THAT strict. Every now and then, we ( people, working on construction sites) have days like that.

Dude, I totally resonate with this. I worked for a startup, behind a computer, for two years and I couldn’t do it anymore. Being outside has really helped with my health/mental health. I try to be conscious of how important that is
This comment section is pathetic. To suggest he didn’t work that day is ridiculous. Just because he had 3-30 second clips documenting his day (the reason you clicked) doesn’t mean he isn’t working
He was running bs errands all day. I'm sorry but if youre able to count down the time left until lunch consistently 2 hours before its due you aren't working lmao. Everyone dislikes the person thats just there to get hours and not actually there to get the job done.
I looked at a few of his vids yesterday, he actually seems like a really nice guy. Been through some shit recently though. He's a very good video editor too. Terrible laborer however, and Jose & his crew know it.

I’ve worked in roofing for about 3 months, being out in the sun especially in Houston tx, and it’s 100-110f outside is no joke. Respect anyone who pulls it off.
I spent three weeks on roofs in between welding jobs and it was the most miserable job I've ever had and the worst paying! Pick up a skill and get the fuck out of roofing!
I worked roofing as well for about a year & a half before I left for a better opportunity somewhere else. Not shingle roofs but metal commercial roofs, repairing rusty panels that cause leaks of all kinds, applying certain chemicals to preserve it for 10+ or so years. It was a bitch at first especially after not having worked for about 6 months, first day was 110 degrees with only 2 5 minutes breaks to get off the roof & chill but a good 1 hour lunch. Once I got used to it it was nothing but good times with good people working under the same heat I was. Those were my brothers on & off the roof, looked out for one another but it was the management that made me say "fuck this" & I moved onto something better. Salute to all the real homies that thug it out under the sun.. black, white, Asian or raza, tienen mi respeto. 🤝💯

Your boss doesn’t respect y’all at all. On occasion you have to treat your employees hahah otherwise they’d fuck off and the turnover rate would be unreal. It’s the little things. But I agree with you that if it was a regular thing any boss would kill someone.
Not every supervisor is a asshole, I've got a pretty physically demanding job and there are rules stating that people can't wear headphones or have their phones out. I'm one of the fastest workers there and break both of those rules daily. As long as I get my work done noone has a problem.
You’re an inspiration man. Purely for keeping as positive as you do . I feel ungrateful. Thank you for pulling me up out of my bull crap. Life is precious
And i do that for minimal wage cause i have no choice or its working bellow minimal wage during winter 2-4 months left and im permanently leaving that job and never gonna work road construction ever again
Man, a bit sad for all the negative comments. This guy took a few minutes of his day to film it and register some personal thoughts, a few minutes out of one day in a 10 and a half hour shift. Good for you man, never mind the mindless robots. You did it.
That or the moron on the job site noone wants to work with so they give him the easy job that will keep him gone for huge chunks of time ... I have 2 of them on my site now lol
I am looking to persue doing constfuction work as my full tike career and it looks like loads of hsrd work but also lots of fun just working with your teammates on certain projects and then feeling like you actually accomplished something when the work is done. I absolutly love the connection that construction workers have towards eachother. Great video man! I love the hard work and dedication!
@@JoShsFITNESSnFUN where are they underpaid? I'm payed $42 an hour as a carpenter and yes I do long hours. but when I do overtime I am payed $84 an hour
I just started construction approx. 5 months ago. I have never done construction before, and most of the time is spent sweeping the floors, keeping the job site clean, and basically finding stuff to be active with. I usually wake up at 6, leave by 6:35, and get to the job site by 7. The company I work for is brand new, approx. 2 years old, run by 2 brothers who have 40+ years combined between them. I learn a lot, and tbh there are days when the task they have me do extends through the whole week. There are some days when I have just enough work for 1 day. When it rains, there's barely any work because the mud becomes a safety hazard. Hell, there are days where I get sent home early because everyone else has their responsibilities and I've finished mine (whether it be sweeping floors or doing tasks like installing door knobs, base molding, driving from one job site to the next, etc) and am now waiting on them for an opportunity to arise. What I'm saying, is we've seen him work 1 day, but how about we also entertain the fact that the 1 day he recorded, isn't everyday, but perhaps the 1 rare day in the week where there is barely anything to do? Construction isn't at all like I thought it was, at least on film. Its hard work, and living next to a lake makes it unbearably humid, but the people are friendly, the supervisors give you shit, but in a friendly way, and you learn valuable skills that you can use wherever you go or wherever you live. Soon, I'll be tasked with doing more important things, but as far as I know, the construction you saw in this video is the rarest day you can ever get.
Rare is right, and on one of these rare works days I took the opportunity to make a video about it. Maybe the title lead to a lot of people being mislead to what they were actually going to watch, but regardless construction is tough. How are you handling it? What type of work do you do? It sounds like carpentry maybe?
@@TylerSchwab I'm actually a general laborer, doing the odds and ends my contracting company doesn't see the need to pay for like sweeping floors, picking up garbage, and building miscellaneous items inside the buildings. So far its not so bad, but I live near a lake so...the humidity is god awful lol. I do hope to go into plumbing, carpentry, or hopefully an electrician.
Bro I wish I woke up at 5:15 , I’m already at work at 5 . It’s all about prepping, having food ready , coffee, clothes , gas in car , makes mornings smoother
I subscribed because of this video, pretty much explained everything my girlfriend needed to know with what most of us construction worker going thru. Love the part that you had your personal time and the part that you looked for something in the trailer, I can soooo relate.
Great video dude. I’ve just gone back into working as a skilled labourer for a local company after being off work for a long time, I’m getting so much fitter burning over 6,000 cals a day and I sleep better too. It really is good for mental/physical well being.
My happiness in construction differed job to job. One they had me and another guy mixing cement, moving the bricks that were just jack hammered; easy stuff like that. The foreman was really cool and everyone was chill. That was actually sad to leave the site when it was finished. The same cannot be said for waterproofing basements, though.
bob marley ya I’ve never heard of anything like that happened that’s very unheard of, but you definitely have to have thick skin because some guys just like to fuck with the apprenticeship on purpose
bob marley mexicans talk to other ppl like they would talk to other mexicans its not that their harsh or fucked up its just that their used to talking shit not in a bad way but in a joking manner. In a mexican household we are taught tough love thats why most of us arent pussies. Anyways just dont take shit from mexicans too seriously we dont talk shit cause we want u to die lol just know that different ppl are built different
That's not true... At 2 years thru my millwright apprenticeship I was a foreman. Once you get your card, you may switch contractors jobs etc. But it doesnt mean you "know enough to be a foreman"
Not for me lol I usually work through it because as soon as I'm done with my work, I can just dip. I usually only have like 4-6 hour days and still get a fat check
@@ilivelifeso1 I mean a 4 - 6 hour day is significantly less than the 8 - 12 hour day's I typically work and a lot of people do in trades... I'd end up killing someone on my crew if I skipped lunch everyday sometimes ya need to but otherwise fuck that I'm taking my breaks especially since my company pays for lunches
This is the type of guy that is so useless we just send him on blank errands because there’s nothing for him to do and we’re tired of seeing him standing there doing nothing. Edit: all the laborers replying got butt hurt
He's probably the least experienced and still coming along. Everybody needs a gofer, it's a valid role so someone more valuable doesn't have to do that job.
2021 - this video is still giving value . I am a musician- contemplating joining the union of some kind . Have no clue at all what it would or will be like . Your video is GOLD. I feel so much more informed. Thank you
If you're still considering, keep in mind that your life will vary tremendously depending on what trade you do and what industry you work in. Our on-site electricians and plumbers work 9-5, while other places can have you pulling loads of overtime (and the associated extra money too).
@@ryant114 yea because its never the new guys job or the guy with less experience 🤦♂️ . This guy thought outside the box and gave some insight into a day as a construction labourer. The fact that your comment lacks any sort of Valuable criticism tells me your just salty. Probably because you've worked your entire life to realize you still have next to nothing.
@@ryant114 Somebody has to do it and he's being paid to do it. He wasn't on his phone much as you can see each job he DID only took not even half hour to an hour to do. Also, most of these crews always has more people than they need. We all see this all the time. If he really was on his phone that much and sucked that much he wouldn't be there. Also, they don't reserve the errands for people who suck. Maybe he just started ? and they usually have NEW people run errands cuz it got to be done and rather have the less experienced guy go do while the more experienced guy stays and gets work done. They don't pay old people to sit and wait for them to have to run somewhere.
@@internetexpert8153 He even had to add that he worked for 12 years like that's relevant. Trying to act like he never had to do "bitch" work. Bet that dude running around was making more money than him when he's the one doing hard work. Work smarter not harder dummy. LOL.
Hang in there brotha, I’m a welder in a shop and 6 days a week I can get stuck anywhere from 9 to 16 hours depending on deadlines! Luckily Saturday’s are usually short
Thank you! I just reached my expected lay off date for the season, so I'll be putting the construction videos on hold for now - maybe when I go back in the spring I'll pick them back up. For now though, Rock Climbing!
Yea, well come to the milenial gen, even if this is real and he has the job, maybe the big union outfist are, having to outfit themselves for the common, RUclips pecker boy always filming shit...
I can relate to that over thinking it really tears my plans apart then I find myself overwhelmed doing nothing but thinking and wishing I did it instead of thinking...
Funny thing is he hasn’t realized that the reason he’s changing crews is cause the guys he just bought frosties for were sick of seeing him take a cut of their job
I'm a carpenter myself, and when I was a young apprentice the hardest days work I did was labouring for 3 plasters rendering a house. Mixing , hauling buckets up scaffolding. Will never forget it!
@@fancifulnotion.frimpongboa5408 they is a lot to learn.. and you always will learn new things.. I thoroughly enjoy it! Once yo7 get passed the first year as you are completely green and havnt a clue what's going it.. it getting handier! Go for it lad!
I used to do that to the inexperienced guys, I had a crew of three to four guys trying to jumpstart a concrete saw once. And the old tighten the hook on the crane.
i’m a union laborer and i thought i didn’t work that much... 😅 but after seeing this dudes work day i’m an outstanding employee who works way to hard 🤣
I am a female landscaping subcontractor and I have much respect for other labor workers. (And yes I do the same work as the guys, it's not easy but I kick ass). You work longer days than I do, but at least you don't have to work in the snow! Snow removal is no fun at all, lol. Loved your video man, I dig your personality.
Thanks for dropping a line! I fortunately get the winter months off and don't have to plow/remove snow. In what state do you work? I'm glad you like the video - I think it came off a little sad....but more positivity to come!
God the moans at the start of the vlog cracked me up. The pain is real! Couldn't help but notice some people commenting about some earlier negative comments... Many of the people on the internet are simply deluded. Keep it up dude, those people should worry about their own issues.
To all the people who havent done this kind of work dont judge the person until you have done it yourself. Serious respect man ! Aint an easy line a work. I know myself.
damn super negative comments, looks like another day working in the construction field even as painters some days are filled running around doing shit. cmon guys atleast he spent his extra time at work doing something productive. i think people are just jealous or want to make themselves sound like they work so hard lol.
Yep... I worked construction for 6 months and I was an awsome worker if I can say so myself. Apparently I came off as “muy arrogante” when I didnt see the point of ALWAYS busting your ass - uhm no... whoever told you that must’ve been a shit boss so you have to be like one as well and repeat the cycle. Like, you had 40+ y/o dudes acting like they’ve been through this, this, and that, trying to pass down their dumbass “wisdom” just to feel accomplished. Like dude, you don’t own the company? You’re employed by the company w/ the same position as me and I’m 21. Wth did you do w/ the rest of your life?
@@edward6749 6 months is nothing. I'm glad you know you'll be a success. Unfortunately, for a lot of guys, including me, construction is all they know... after reading your comment, I can assure you, you did come off as arrogant, I bet you weren't nearly as good as you think you were. Thinking you're great, after working 6 months. That's not only arrogant, it's also extremely delusional. Good luck with your life. I sincerely hope you are as smart as you think you are.
C Levy Idk, the fact that most people who work with me including my managers as well, call me a good worker is good enough. Maybe I failed to mention but during those 6 months I was also doing school as well. And I’m fixing to finish come December. Never once said I’ll be a success, but you’re proving my point. Apparently I’m “delusional” cause I just stated what everybody else says about me in person? You say 6 months isn’t enough time, but yet what else is their to do in construction besides doing your work, showing up on time, and taking the initiative when coworkers are a no-show? Guarantee you’d love me as a worker. And as for you ONLY knowing construction then that’s your problem. You’ve obviously haven’t tried new things or give up on the thought of trying something new. Hard work isn’t only construction. Hard work is also found in the hospitals, the classrooms, restaurants, military, etc.
@@edward6749 you make good points. I'll concede to the fact construction is all I know. Having said that, jumping careers, financially, is not in my best interest. I will leave you with this.. if people find you arrogant, you're probably arrogant. Generally speaking, arrogant people are disliked.
The whole virus thing has lead me here. My school recently let seniors automatically graduate so I have 5 months till college. My dad owns an electrical contracting company, and I’m getting a job there. I’ve never been more nervous. Thanks for posting this

I am going to try out construction this year's enrollment (late career bloomer here) I would enjoy working outdoors dawn to dusk over packing shelves from dusk to dawn. Just hope the culture within the industry isn't as tough-headed like its stereotypically explained.
THE OUTDOORS! That's something I think I've been taking for granted, and need to keep in perspective - I love that I work outside. Best of luck with your transition man! I made the switch from barista to construction worker last year, and it has been treating me well. Do you know what type of construction you'll be doing? I'm doing excavation and specifically underground water lines.
It depends on the company some great some shit you will know quickly. Just work smart avoid the people that put you down and before you know it you will be boss but you have to learn as much as you can when you can good luck
One more thing the new guy always has to earn his place and respect so be smart .try to be the guy the foreman wants on his job (because of your work ) and remember this if some one is fucking with you for no reason tell them( YOU Don,t SIGN MY PAYCHECK AND UNTILL YOU DO YOU CAN LICK THE UNDER SIDE OF MY BAG ) shuts them up every time
Love the comments below, i don't necessarily get involved with the politics of people, I attended My civil construction course and now actively seeking a job for it, but damn its hard the course only went for 5 weeks and only had 2 weeks of skid steer/roller operations while the rest was theory plus 2 days of traffic control. and in those 2 weeks it was limited use for the bobcats because there was 17-20 people with only 3 old bobcats with a 15 minute rotation. I picked up the skill real quick because i play a lot of pc games for eye-hand coordination. But having only 2 hours on the bobcat and an hour on the roller just doesn't fit the criteria when employers are looking for minimum 2 years experience so its kinda fucked for new people trying to get in. I was aiming the John Holland company thats developing the underground metro tunnels in Melbourne but they require people with experience in some sort of construction industry. But i'll figure it out. hopefully
I started construction last year when I was 16 and I watched this video before hand and I was like oh it’s not that bad but then you I realized you forgot to mention the part where you’re miserable
Great job keeping it real my man. I’m an oiler for a local construction company and I feel ya. The first thing for me coming from a 40 hour work week is the hours. 2800 hours the first year 🤣👍
Thanks for sharing what your day is like in your field. Never mind the trolls, everyone in the trades has there own unique experiences when it comes to the job. Those that complain about others standing around are usually the biggest offenders themselves. You'll get no hate from me, much appreciated.
this is a hypocritical comment. you don't know what construction work is like and you're being fed a false idea of what it's actually like. rewatch the video except this time look at the people in the background actually working. I've been in this environment and I would be pissed watching this kid filming a selfie video while I'm digging a hole. any young people watching this who want to get into construction prepare to be surprised.
Really cool video! I am a construction 'worker' as well, from Sweden! Right now I am just studying, though. But it is really cool that we do similar stuff, it is so nice to be outside every single day (yes, even during the hellish winters). One day I would love to work in another country. Thank you, Tyler, for the amazing video. PS: I subscribed.
Fuck!!! Man I work circles around you and your whole crew. I do industrial electrical, y'all got that gravy train going. Eating frostys?!?! OFF YA ASS, ON YA FEET!! OUT THE SHADE, IN THE HEAT!!! But your attitude is perfect, you're motivated and willing work. Which is more than most. Good on you brother.
5:15 and you have an hour to get ready for work. I hate living in Modesto and driving to San Jose I have to wake up at 3:45 a.m. in order to make it work by 7:30
You’re adorable! This was a great perspective of an average job site labourer’s average day. Great for the old fogeys and youngsters to get a real glimpse of construction sites. Thank you for sharing, I will share too.
I know right i was thinking of applying to some construction jobs having to find out "the majority" get paid the same amount as fast food ,restaurant and retail workers Not anymore fuck that
Medicine Man “shit money”? Idk about wherever in the United Fuckdom you live at how much construction workers make but here in the US a construction worker or trades person is making 60k plus a year. Someone experienced with specific skills can make well over 100k a year and I would not call that “shit money”
Nice! Pretty accurate depiction of what working underground utilities is like. Everyone who's hating on this video don't really understand this type of construction. You end up doing a lot of running around, getting things organized, picking up fuel, loading/unloading tools and materials, waiting on machines to dig, waiting on machines to backfill, etc... The only people on a job like this that don't ever (hardly) stop are the hoe operators. I've been on jobs where we had 2 hours between cuts - literally "work" for 1 hour every day, rest is waiting.
I don't know why people are hating, this was literally my experience one winter.😂 I also love how he counts each minute until lunch. U don't know how amazing lunch is or break until you work these jobs. Props man, I feel you
They sent me to apprentice for this one shop once. The guy tells me my job is to help the electricians keep the floor clean. Apparently they were laying off the laborers. So one laborer throws his hard hat two inches from my head and threatens to kill me if I touch a broom. I was an apprentice learning the rules so I just didn't touch the broom. When the owner asked why I didn't clean the floor I told him a laborer threatened to kill me. They layed him them off and tried to get me and the other apprentice to clean things up. A wireman who just transferred over told us we are not helpers we are electrical apprentices and that other job was for the laborers. So we didn't clean up we installed electrical work until we suddenly got laid off. I remember them accusing us of some awful stuff just because I showed up on time to learn how to do my job. Laborers get it tough.
but concrete work isn’t really that hard. labor intensive? it can be at times. but setting forms, raking base and tamping it isn’t that hard. raking mud isn’t hard, especially once you get an eye for grade. I cut my teeth as a concrete laborer, now i’m a finisher. it’s not THAT difficult.
@@foreignbeggar3783 yeah I'm a concrete Foreman and to me it's all the same. I still shovel and run with them all even though they're all 10 or 15 years older than me. It also depends on the rate of production that the company wants.
You Americans don’t know a thing about working hard🤣 your all fat and lazy come over to England and you’ll see real hard work 4 in the morning till 8 or 9 at night you Americans wouldn’t last a day
Interesting to see how a Labourer works across the pond. I'm lucky that I can get up at 7am and start work at 8am as it is only a 2 mile drive (after I'm collected). In the UK we call a "crew" a gang. I'm only on small projects though. All the best to you and admire that you're using your spare time wisely. Peace - From Cornwall
Hey hombre, you probably already know this and I know you work long hours, that your cabin may seem confining, that you feel sometimes stuck in a heap trying to find that better life whilst having to do something that doesnt fulfill you but pays the bills. Just remember this, don't quit, where I am at kids younger than you are taken out of school just to work in low skilled jobs, they work non stop, often their job sites don't have machinery, those big trucks you have over their imagine doing that with handtools. Don't get me wrong, I am just saying you have got a chance to make it work out, so go for it, that little cabin may be small but you have a sewer system, work rights, great prospects to advance your carreer. All the best

When I did construction my boss would have breathed fire if we stopped on the clock for frosties lol
Your boss doesn’t respect y’all at all. On occasion you have to treat your employees hahah otherwise they’d fuck off and the turnover rate would be unreal. It’s the little things. But I agree with you that if it was a regular thing any boss would kill someone.
No one is scared of the boss ,do whatever u want
I never said my boss disrespects me at all lol but he definitely expects a day's work. And I'm paid to work.
Not every supervisor is a asshole, I've got a pretty physically demanding job and there are rules stating that people can't wear headphones or have their phones out. I'm one of the fastest workers there and break both of those rules daily. As long as I get my work done noone has a problem.
Must of been an alcoholic
I could never do what you do. Tremendous respect for the people who keep this world going, whether they are noticed or not.
You’re an inspiration man. Purely for keeping as positive as you do . I feel ungrateful. Thank you for pulling me up out of my bull crap. Life is precious
construction workers are never appreciated for what they give up and do with their own hands
And i do that for minimal wage cause i have no choice or its working bellow minimal wage during winter
2-4 months left and im permanently leaving that job and never gonna work road construction ever again

9 years and you’re still labouring 😂
I just started construction approx. 5 months ago. I have never done construction before, and most of the time is spent sweeping the floors, keeping the job site clean, and basically finding stuff to be active with. I usually wake up at 6, leave by 6:35, and get to the job site by 7. The company I work for is brand new, approx. 2 years old, run by 2 brothers who have 40+ years combined between them. I learn a lot, and tbh there are days when the task they have me do extends through the whole week. There are some days when I have just enough work for 1 day. When it rains, there's barely any work because the mud becomes a safety hazard. Hell, there are days where I get sent home early because everyone else has their responsibilities and I've finished mine (whether it be sweeping floors or doing tasks like installing door knobs, base molding, driving from one job site to the next, etc) and am now waiting on them for an opportunity to arise. What I'm saying, is we've seen him work 1 day, but how about we also entertain the fact that the 1 day he recorded, isn't everyday, but perhaps the 1 rare day in the week where there is barely anything to do? Construction isn't at all like I thought it was, at least on film. Its hard work, and living next to a lake makes it unbearably humid, but the people are friendly, the supervisors give you shit, but in a friendly way, and you learn valuable skills that you can use wherever you go or wherever you live. Soon, I'll be tasked with doing more important things, but as far as I know, the construction you saw in this video is the rarest day you can ever get.
Rare is right, and on one of these rare works days I took the opportunity to make a video about it. Maybe the title lead to a lot of people being mislead to what they were actually going to watch, but regardless construction is tough. How are you handling it? What type of work do you do? It sounds like carpentry maybe?
@@TylerSchwab I'm actually a general laborer, doing the odds and ends my contracting company doesn't see the need to pay for like sweeping floors, picking up garbage, and building miscellaneous items inside the buildings. So far its not so bad, but I live near a lake so...the humidity is god awful lol. I do hope to go into plumbing, carpentry, or hopefully an electrician.
Bro I wish I woke up at 5:15 , I’m already at work at 5 . It’s all about prepping, having food ready , coffee, clothes , gas in car , makes mornings smoother

That's why construction workers are able to eat those high calorie foods.
The countdown to lunch is so relatable & gut wrenching at the same damn time.
My happiness in construction differed job to job. One they had me and another guy mixing cement, moving the bricks that were just jack hammered; easy stuff like that. The foreman was really cool and everyone was chill. That was actually sad to leave the site when it was finished. The same cannot be said for waterproofing basements, though.
Jose's right!! dude is just standing around
THE MEXICAN haha this is not real job site if u got so much time to shoot videos on RUclips!
I know right he's just being the boss's bitch.
bob marley ya I’ve never heard of anything like that happened that’s very unheard of, but you definitely have to have thick skin because some guys just like to fuck with the apprenticeship on purpose
bob marley mexicans talk to other ppl like they would talk to other mexicans its not that their harsh or fucked up its just that their used to talking shit not in a bad way but in a joking manner. In a mexican household we are taught tough love thats why most of us arent pussies. Anyways just dont take shit from mexicans too seriously we dont talk shit cause we want u to die lol just know that different ppl are built different
Cool
If my foreman saw my phone in my hand at work, he would tear me a new asshole. Especially being an apprentice

that lunch part for like every trade guy is so true lol nothing beats lunch time xD
Not for me lol I usually work through it because as soon as I'm done with my work, I can just dip. I usually only have like 4-6 hour days and still get a fat check

So true, I work construction too. That is probably why they sent him to a different crew. Nice guy, useless laborer.
Fuck this is the type of dude that becomes a foreman, those who can do, and those who cant, lead.

He's probably the least experienced and still coming along. Everybody needs a gofer, it's a valid role so someone more valuable doesn't have to do that job.

If you're still considering, keep in mind that your life will vary tremendously depending on what trade you do and what industry you work in. Our on-site electricians and plumbers work 9-5, while other places can have you pulling loads of overtime (and the associated extra money too).
Comprehensive and realistic. Good shit!

@@ryant114 Somebody has to do it and he's being paid to do it. He wasn't on his phone much as you can see each job he DID only took not even half hour to an hour to do.
Also, most of these crews always has more people than they need. We all see this all the time.
If he really was on his phone that much and sucked that much he wouldn't be there. Also, they don't reserve the errands for people who suck. Maybe he just started ? and they usually have NEW people run errands cuz it got to be done and rather have the less experienced guy go do while the more experienced guy stays and gets work done. They don't pay old people to sit and wait for them to have to run somewhere.

You’re employed by the company w/ the same position as me and I’m 21. Wth did you do w/ the rest of your life?
@@edward6749 6 months is nothing. I'm glad you know you'll be a success. Unfortunately, for a lot of guys, including me, construction is all they know... after reading your comment, I can assure you, you did come off as arrogant, I bet you weren't nearly as good as you think you were. Thinking you're great, after working 6 months. That's not only arrogant, it's also extremely delusional. Good luck with your life. I sincerely hope you are as smart as you think you are.
C Levy Idk, the fact that most people who work with me including my managers as well, call me a good worker is good enough. Maybe I failed to mention but during those 6 months I was also doing school as well. And I’m fixing to finish come December. Never once said I’ll be a success, but you’re proving my point. Apparently I’m “delusional” cause I just stated what everybody else says about me in person? You say 6 months isn’t enough time, but yet what else is their to do in construction besides doing your work, showing up on time, and taking the initiative when coworkers are a no-show? Guarantee you’d love me as a worker. And as for you ONLY knowing construction then that’s your problem. You’ve obviously haven’t tried new things or give up on the thought of trying something new. Hard work isn’t only construction. Hard work is also found in the hospitals, the classrooms, restaurants, military, etc.
Why is the answer to negativity "theyre just jealous" or "theyre all haters".
@@edward6749 you make good points. I'll concede to the fact construction is all I know. Having said that, jumping careers, financially, is not in my best interest. I will leave you with this.. if people find you arrogant, you're probably arrogant. Generally speaking, arrogant people are disliked.

It depends on the company some great some shit you will know quickly. Just work smart avoid the people that put you down and before you know it you will be boss but you have to learn as much as you can when you can good luck
One more thing the new guy always has to earn his place and respect so be smart .try to be the guy the foreman wants on his job (because of your work ) and remember this if some one is fucking with you for no reason tell them( YOU Don,t SIGN MY PAYCHECK AND UNTILL YOU DO YOU CAN LICK THE UNDER SIDE OF MY BAG ) shuts them up every time
Love the comments below, i don't necessarily get involved with the politics of people, I attended My civil construction course and now actively seeking a job for it, but damn its hard the course only went for 5 weeks and only had 2 weeks of skid steer/roller operations while the rest was theory plus 2 days of traffic control. and in those 2 weeks it was limited use for the bobcats because there was 17-20 people with only 3 old bobcats with a 15 minute rotation. I picked up the skill real quick because i play a lot of pc games for eye-hand coordination.
But having only 2 hours on the bobcat and an hour on the roller just doesn't fit the criteria when employers are looking for minimum 2 years experience so its kinda fucked for new people trying to get in.
I was aiming the John Holland company thats developing the underground metro tunnels in Melbourne but they require people with experience in some sort of construction industry.
But i'll figure it out. hopefully
It’s definitely this guys first week, the real hard workers don’t think about making a video

Have you ever worked?
I’m sorry but that’s a stupid comment
Nice! Pretty accurate depiction of what working underground utilities is like. Everyone who's hating on this video don't really understand this type of construction. You end up doing a lot of running around, getting things organized, picking up fuel, loading/unloading tools and materials, waiting on machines to dig, waiting on machines to backfill, etc... The only people on a job like this that don't ever (hardly) stop are the hoe operators. I've been on jobs where we had 2 hours between cuts - literally "work" for 1 hour every day, rest is waiting.
Construction can be so hit and miss depending on the day, weather, your super having their shit together. Super slow day that day

@@Turnpost2552 I see plenty. "lol"
They sent me to apprentice for this one shop once. The guy tells me my job is to help the electricians keep the floor clean. Apparently they were laying off the laborers. So one laborer throws his hard hat two inches from my head and threatens to kill me if I touch a broom. I was an apprentice learning the rules so I just didn't touch the broom. When the owner asked why I didn't clean the floor I told him a laborer threatened to kill me. They layed him them off and tried to get me and the other apprentice to clean things up. A wireman who just transferred over told us we are not helpers we are electrical apprentices and that other job was for the laborers. So we didn't clean up we installed electrical work until we suddenly got laid off. I remember them accusing us of some awful stuff just because I showed up on time to learn how to do my job. Laborers get it tough.
Come pull concrete with me over here in San Antonio Texas. You wouldn't last an hour as a real labor. You're more of a driver over there.
Fuck yea I was gonna say the same but no point lol. Concrete all day everyday. 13 years now for me

but concrete work isn’t really that hard. labor intensive? it can be at times. but setting forms, raking base and tamping it isn’t that hard. raking mud isn’t hard, especially once you get an eye for grade. I cut my teeth as a concrete laborer, now i’m a finisher. it’s not THAT difficult.
@@foreignbeggar3783 yeah I'm a concrete Foreman and to me it's all the same. I still shovel and run with them all even though they're all 10 or 15 years older than me. It also depends on the rate of production that the company wants.
You Americans don’t know a thing about working hard🤣 your all fat and lazy come over to England and you’ll see real hard work 4 in the morning till 8 or 9 at night you Americans wouldn’t last a day
As a construction worker wake up 4:30 leave at 5:30 start work at 6:30. You're an amateur👍
Dam booger balls why so far?
Yea booger balls I hear you there I also want to leave my state but it’s union job that kind of keeps me here. Good luck to you
Yup. 4:30 work at 7:00 1/2 hour break. Sore muscles at end of day.
@@craiglittleworm5003 good job brother keep it up, it gets easier👍
@Booger Balls Good man💪 should be proud of yourself brother keep it up👍
Interesting to see how a Labourer works across the pond. I'm lucky that I can get up at 7am and start work at 8am as it is only a 2 mile drive (after I'm collected). In the UK we call a "crew" a gang. I'm only on small projects though. All the best to you and admire that you're using your spare time wisely. Peace - From Cornwall
Thanks for dropping a line James! Construction has its various forms, and this is just mine at the time
Cool man , youare living on site , at the shop . You got a Shower , a small room , a computer ! And FOOD !
Hey hombre, you probably already know this and I know you work long hours, that your cabin may seem confining, that you feel sometimes stuck in a heap trying to find that better life whilst having to do something that doesnt fulfill you but pays the bills.
Just remember this, don't quit, where I am at kids younger than you are taken out of school just to work in low skilled jobs, they work non stop, often their job sites don't have machinery, those big trucks you have over their imagine doing that with handtools.
Don't get me wrong, I am just saying you have got a chance to make it work out, so go for it, that little cabin may be small but you have a sewer system, work rights, great prospects to advance your carreer.
All the best
You’re not a real construction worker. You’re defiantly related to the owner of that company.
At least we know he "thinks" a lot. He's a thinker yep a thinker
We can tell you’re the real construction worker here, you don’t know the difference between definitely and defiantly.
bruce maybe English isn’t his mother language
