NEW Driveway | The Neighbor Was MAD!!!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 дек 2023
- Hang with the dudes from RTC as we rip out and set up a driveway in Arnold. The neighbor said he felt his house shake from our machine and he was extra grumpy. He thought it would be a good idea to come outside cussing at us to get his point across, he apologized quickly.
Хобби
FINALLY, a contractor who doesn't let the neighbors own him. Cussing is a science and art, you earned an A-plus. Great job
The way you laughed at him when he asked for an operators license was gold 😂
🤣😁🤘
Whoever the first person to laugh is the kind of person that is hoping things escalate haha
I would have assumed that a FISHING LICENSE would have sufficed!
@@RickThomasConcrete so he’s a home inspector huh? Yeah I’ve had my dealings with them. They’re all criminals. I wish they would lock them all up. I don’t believe there is one of them that is not a thief.
i do the same thing laugh at him & tell him who the hell u think u are coming here asking me for my operators license are u a damn cop NO shut ur month walk away u got 3 seconds to do so or else i call my lawyer & also the cops & tell them u harassing me on a job
He's jealous his neighbor is getting a nice new, big driveway.
Glad to see you hold someone accountable for their behaviors.
People have got too comfortable with treating others like crap. I just can't deal with it anymore.
@@RickThomasConcrete Same
@@RickThomasConcrete me too...Outtanding comeback on your part.....cheers from Sunny Florida , Paul
@@RickThomasConcretetrump says Your welcome
What is it with us concrete guys? Are we the ones that are gonna show people how to act in public? You know, back when I started, 90% concrete guys didn’t even have a high school diploma, but it seems like we are the ones having to show people what manners are. Great job, Brother 😂🤘
If unloading material at street affects your foundation, you need to have your foundation looked at. Any good home inspector would know that
He was just trying to show some inspector authority lol
@@kevinshore8103And that’s just typical of their behavior!
Not having a dumpster or trailer piling up construction waste on a public street damaging the roads all tax payers have a say on. This is Mickey Mouse work
Hell, I’m a retired project engineer and I’d be out there (even as a neighbour) bringing you guys coffee or water and be watching with keen interest. I always found treating the guys doing the work with respect always makes the job go smoothly.
I wish everyone would think like that. 😊🤘
Brian , you are so correct.....I went into training for that about age 5.......any construction, and I am right there....
and I am now 71 and still doing construction myself sometimes....
cheers from Florida, Paul
Well it’s a hard truth. Everyone wants to be a Karen now. Imagine Karen homeowners while doing sub work?
Sometimes it pays off too. I live in the country and when the crew came out and started replacing the bridge near my house I made sure to keep cold drinks and free rides into town so they didn't have to go to the gas station 6 miles away and pay stupid prices for snacks and drinks. In return they paved my driveway with the left over asphalt for free. I even kept the generator fueled up over the weekend so they didn't have to send a guy out. They pumped water from the creek to damp the mats they use to keep the concrete from getting hot and setting too fast.
I took cold bottles of water out to the roofing crew that did our pats every afternoon , temp was 105f to 110f they truly appreciated it no idea hot it was on that white roof
I love me a big bad homeowner acting tough until the energy is returned and they dunno how to respond. Good video!!
Thanks! 😁🤘
That's why I'm confused why so many take it 😅 just me 🤔
“I’m a home inspector” 😂😂😂
We were rolling 🤣🤣💯
Should be on a shirt "foundation shakin home inspector"
I’m kind of a big deal.
His profession is to cost homeowners thousands but assume no liability for being a dumbass.
Home Inspecters should be required to have building experience. I've known "people" that become realtors, then need "home inspectors", they take a short course and BAM! They know it all and customers suffer!
I figured he was gonna complain about the mud on the street but you put him in his place. You taught him that us blue collar guys aren't the ones to mess with when we're just doing our jobs. BTW really nice job on the cleanup
I LIKE THE MANLY WAY YOU HANDLED HIM. GOOD JOB.
😁🤘
Hell yeah needs to be more people like this
It’s amazing how humble and apologetic when these nosy bodies start strutting their stuff and it comes back at them twofold. Wish these guys were doing my driveway!
😁🤘
Most of us trades guys are used to dealing with assholes so they aren't prepared for how quickly we shut it down if they come at us sideways. You handled it well
I need me some contractor like that. Made the dude to apologize. The way you laugh at him was priceless 😂😂😂
Respect goes both ways….you get the same energy you give out
THANK YOU!!!!! That’s EXACTLY how you handle people like him. I’ll never ever in life understand people coming out to complain because a neighbor is having some sort of work done, and they don’t like the noise or whatever. It’s a “temporary” thing. It’s a part of life that you accept because one day you’ll need some type of work done. I just don’t get it. People do the same thing in lawn transformation videos. You don’t own the street, and you’re not the king of the neighborhood. The entitlement.
😁🤘
Excellent way to deal with aggressive people. As far as the porch measure twice, that gives you a new mission statement: Our Work Is Nice Cause We Do it Twice😊.
Glad to see others are the same when dealing with folks that make their presence known with cussing at the start, we don't show up to a job site to cause problems.
I told our crew that this year has been the year of the Karen whether it was the customer or the neighbor, it’s been crazy. That’s exactly how I handle them. Been in my trade for 21 years and I’m not allowing some Karen to talk down and disrespect me or my crew.
Exactly💯🤘
A working 04 6.0 impressively rare
@mackwoodcock7484 all stock, too 😳🤘
JT holding the camera saying hello should be it’s own hour long video 🤣
🤣🤣🤣 he's funny af
"I am STFU certified."
I live about 16 miles from a military artillery range. The boombs rattle the dishes in the house. No damage to any of the houses.
Real life concrete guys with attitudes thank you for real content
Yes, sir! 🤘
"I got nothing for you" I guess he figured out not to mess with the workmen.
It’s to early Karen! Don’t start that sh*t do you understand that ? Now bring me that coffee! That’s all what i heard 😅😂
That is so satisfying watching those big slabs lift up like taking apart an oreo cookie lol
You can tell he was the type of guy that got away with talking like that, definitely didnt expect you to come back at him the way he did 😂
In sandals
Love your videos... when he asks you about your license it was very funny 😅
New subscriber here and ex drag racer. The home inspector got off to a bad start, you gave him exactly the right dose right back, he realized it and corrected and you changed back too. Good on both of ya. Thats what we need more in the US right now is mutual respect. Ive lived through the fifties and up and this world is different and not for the better in many ways. Enjoyed watching the prep work and all. Take care and stay safe to you and the crew, Godspeed to the youngster that lost his life in bad gun play. SS
😂😂😂😂The laughter cracked me up. Kevin officially shut down....
😁🤘
Well said. He was rude. You were doing your job (which looked good by the way) and he was all bothered your big boy toy was rumbling the ground. I’m glad he apologized though. He probably didn’t expect you to feed him the attitude he was giving!!
Thank you! 🤘
All the guy did was drop one or two f-bombs, he wasn't even aggressive. That's no reason for a grown man to get all butt hurt.
@@Redwood_Rambler he was being passive-aggressive, and he was trying to imply that potential damage was being done to his house. He was being a nosey a hole for no reason.
@@Redwood_Rambler if he approached them differently he wouldnt have gotten the attitude. oh the road guys didnt even do that or you got an operators license for that thing etc....when you act like a sh@t head you get treated like a sh@t head
I love the operators license question that’s hilarious. Also, in the event of a minor earthquake, is this guy‘s house just gonna completely crumble into a pile of rubble. If he’s a home inspector, he should know that homes can take quite a shaking.
Cringey old man aside, tearing up a whole driveway with a skid steer just blows my mind! A freakin' skid steer! Good stuff!
Every neighborhood has at least one of these.
Old fella out of line coming at you sideways right off the back. You handled that👍🏽🤙🏽👋🏽👋🏽
As a now building/welding inspector (I used to be a City Inspector for 10 years), people like this are WAY too common. I've dealt with hundreds of them who are just mad at construction happening in general. They don't understand the basic minor inconvenience of residential work, let alone commercial or DOT work. They tend to make mountains out of molehills (as filmed here), yet complain about the tiniest things on their own projects. they are the WORST clients to take on. In my opinion, as a former city inspector, you did LITERALLY everything by the book. I'd approve it and probably hand you my signed approval of construction papers and reapproved permits, right Infront of that Karen.
At least he apologized
Just watching those guys throw the concrete chunks in the bucket made my back hurt.
Damn this is my first video i see of you and you stand up to that guy like a real man! u got my subscription!
First time watcher… EPIC! Awesome handling of the neighbor.
What an awesome neighbor. 😅😅 I'm glad you stood your ground.
There's always some dude that has an issue with what we do on the job. So crazy.
Good for you for standing your ground. Him asking about his concerns are normal but the way he demanded was NOT cool. I would have offered coffee,biscuits and beer as a good neighbour, after all you never know if YOU are going to need you guys!
Man I hate when neighbors are like that. Don’t forgot what they were gonna complain about after u jump back at them and put them in their place.
😂😂 you scared him when you fought back with his dirty attitude
About damn time somebody held their own.
Damn son you all work hard and fast... good job
I’ve been a cretehead for 25 yrs. Love your channel👍🏻
💪 thanks, brother!
We run into the same type of people with the concrete pump sometimes. I just smile and go on.
🤘
And there we can see a male Karen in his natural habitat 😂 great video as usual
I don't think he planned it like that 😁 thank you!
That guy ain’t no home inspector he just said that to make himself look right.
He just wanted you to know he was a home inspector. Kinda loves himself! Skip McCain
The “well, thank you” hits so hard because I bet you don’t like reacting that way, but some people just merit it and have no idea how to communicate respectfully. You handled that perfectly in my opinion!
ABOUT time one of these videos played out the way that it should!!! Great job sir!
Prime example of think before you Speak
I LOVED this. About time somebody put one of these nosy, arrogant neighbors in their place and told him to kick rocks!
Great job. Love the way you dealt with the neighbour. Typical behaviour from someone who's home all day and has nothing better to do with their time than inject themselves into things that don't concern them.
So, did your neighbor fit under the new slab? Mine did.
Prayers coming your way for the young lad who lost his life to a tragic event.....this is so sad......
and we all know rule number 1 is treat every gun as if it is loaded.....
So Sad for your Friends loss.......
Best Wishes from an Old Guy in Florida, Paul
Thank you, Paul! I appreciate that 🙏
Operater LC 😆😆😆 his cealses was filed late he's down so he's just trying trow wate around....he ant throwing nothing eales.👍👍👍old gesser
I'm a Home Inspector. I've always had the attitude of at least staying out of the way of the working man. If not that, then be helpful. Not sure what announcing his occupation was supposed to do. I apologize on behalf of us home inspectors.
Man David came in like he just finished 8 pots of coffee
I'll take a hat to support my favorite RUclipsr
..." forklift certified aaaaaand that's iffy." 😂😂
Ya got me watching 👏👏👍
If that little bit of concrete hitting the driveway shook his house. And he's a home inspector. He needs to inspect his own house. 😆 🤣
To the lift driver... good job brother 👏 👍
love how you picked up that big slab with only one of the forks and the habit of that will bend the crap out of it
Yeah, I've been using this set for 6 years now. You can still grab a pallet. Just gotta be careful 😁🤘
Oh an the dog from Smoky an the bandit...good ol fread ....👍👍👍👍👍⬇️⬇️
I really admire the work you do. I was a welder for 17 years before entering law enforcement retired now. I have great respect for peaple do great work.👍
I can't lie I couldn't wipe the small off my face after that interaction lol! Great stuff as always man
😁💪 we started work yesterday morning at 6am and we're still working. 🤘out here throwing salt
@@RickThomasConcrete hell yeah brotha!!!! You guys might get an even bigger snow storm up there next week… good luck and stay safe out there!!
Great work despite the nosy neighbor!
Absolute legend mate exactly how us aussies deal with that shit 👊👊 it’s amazing how different countries construction laws are, if we put any materials what so ever in our roads we get massive massive fines everything here needs to be piled and loaded out onsite. It’s amazing the differences 🤙🏽
😁🤘
Just goes to show that you guys have much to many people on government (tax payers) payroll. I remember when I was a kid that my dad and grandad complained that the UK ways have got to go, (we are in Canada) and there are still a few more to clean up. Big government does not work. They get thinking that we work for them instead of the other way around.
Great video! It looks like you have a good team going for you, too! I think one of the key moments was when just after you said that you didn't think you'd even need the excavator, your guy pulling up with the truck and excavator pulls up, jumped out of the truck to you, and said. "Hey, if you're not going to need the excavator, I'm gonna spin it around, park it down there..."
It's a of he pulled up, read the job, and took the initiative. Little things like this in the seasoned experienced worker's methods all add up to alot of worth. Good luck to ya, and good luck to your upcoming season back at the track, man! 👍
Thank you! These guys are amazing!
dude checked his attitude real fucking quick when you matched his energy, he just wanted to come out and act tough seems like.
You can tell that guy is used to bullying people around….soon as someone’s not having it he’s all apologetic because he’s just a typical cowardly bully.
I can only imagine how the inspector treats people who needs his approval on their property. When I watched the large slab being lifted in one piece, I wished it could be relocated to my backyard.
"You got an operaters license to operate that thing?"
Shit, we've been rumbled, run!😂
I've watched a few of your vids, and the way u stood up to that guy, I respect that, to many men turning into fairys, and I checked if I subscribed, but now I am, I give allot of respect, so when I'm disrespected I go full out. Good for you man!
Thanks, brother! I appreciate that 🙏 💯
“Im a home inspector” I don’t give a fuck what you are!😂😂
lol found your channel from the short of the altercation and been watching some of your videos. Love the work I’ve also never seen concrete ripped out with forks so that’s bad ass lol
I absolutely love the way you handled that guy.
That's just how I was raised 😁🤘
Interesting channel. It drew me in. Something about watching people work.
Concretes a tough way to make a living, brutal on the body. Nice work fellas!
Well done with the neighbor 👍 you put him straight 😂.
Sooo cool to watch. Thank you for sharing.👍
Every neighborhood has a Richard Head in it, the worst ones are inspectors that wanna throw their Power around
Good job Rick. You put that old man in his place. 😄
Subaru or Prius, either vehicle owner is this guy...."the neighbor". Hey from Columbia Mo
Video randomly popped in my feed (I watch stuff similar I guess) and was curious and was watching and liked the racing talk too and was continuing the video and when you snapped back at that dude I knew this would be a good channel to watch haha subbed always annoying when people come up trying to tell you nonsense about your job
This channel is a breath of fresh air from Victory...which has kind of tailed off into more of a TV show now. I still enjoy Victory, but I subscribed to watch the work, not the other bullshit.
💪🤘
Love when someone can’t stomach the dish they wanna serve 😂 once he saw you were going to be a real person and not a bot he had to drop that aggression start apologizing lol
💯😁🤘
What a NNNEEEEERRRRRDD!!! I like your videos. One of my faves. Playing catch up. Rock On!!
😁🤘
It doesn’t matter with new construction as it does with what we’re doing…. No truer words spoken, and it Applies to all trades. The HVAC, the Plumbing, electrical…. Builder just cares that it passes code and he can move forward as cheap as possible.
I don't know much about concrete. I'm a roofer and we know how to get the neighbors blood pressure up also. Nothing like taking the amigos out there around 7 am and playing them the songs of my people. Which is a loud ass compressor, nails guns going, Efrain smacking his metal tear off tool with a hammer because it's bent with some random mariachi playing on the radio. The neighbors absolutely love us
Got to love them, Larry's out there 😂😂😂😂
Great to see you laying #3 or 4 bar for the pour. It's the best way to go on any pour or welded mat. Either way you wont be back for it.
We used plastic sheeting with a wood framework to hold the plastic from hitting the concrete. It worked great for jobs up to 20 by 20. The thing was a nightmare to set over the slab, but well worth the trouble in the end result.
😁🤘
Every neighborhood has one jerk that has to come yell and cuss , they usually don't know what they're talking about and act the fool .
You handled it perfectly 😂.
Home inspector says it all. Wanna be and never will be contractor. You handle it better than I would have.
Loved the way you handled the upset neighbor and I’m sure none of that sediment and water ended up in that storm sewer intake. I’m sure u had the appropriate equipment to contain anything from entering thee river system.
LOL, if he was a home inspector (and knew what he was doing) he wouldn’t have come out and said anything.
The old driveway looks brand new compared to mine. That's really interesting he is having it redone.
That's what I thought. I'd have loved to have the one that was removed!
