I Latino crew will out work your anglos all day long, work for less and be ready to work a job without 4 or 5 years of carrying a journeyman's tools and fetching his coffee. Just because you never had the skills to hold down a union construction job in the skilled trades in complex commercial construction is no reason to knock those who do. Your disdain for formal training in just about every field is laughable. If you never need surgery, I suggest you find a corpsman instead of a surgeon. You crack me up. I am sure the architects and engineers that design these commercial buildings are thinking, "Let's see. I can make this more complex because union tradesmen will be building it". Buildings are designed to be built using proven technology and materials that *any* qualified construction worker can do. Your claims are nonsense. They have dumbed down these trades so much with new materials and methods, all but the most complicated jobs could be learned in a month or two. In one and two family, 90% of the work could be taught in a week. BTW the toughest skills are nothing to do with the actual trades, it is planing and plan review on my side. Once it is on the plan, actually doing the work is a paint by numbers thing. When you have a residential setting, they are sleepwalking through a repetitive factory type job. That is particularly true when it is a condo or tract housing where you are building the same 10 rooms for months. As I said the 4 plex had a gang and each guy only did one or two things all day. You don't need 4 years fetching coffee to learn how to do that. |
