    Not really. Anything construction related has no appeal to me.

    Ok, as they are big into having safety personnel onsite to manage these things.

    Agreed, and they make damn good money.

    In regards to osha, the last class I had with them I laughed at them through most of it. The guy even said if I see you in the field I’m gonna give you a ticket, I told him go and try.

    Yea a lot of the safety guys think they are cops at jobsites, I'm usually a smart ass around them, especially the younger guys they don't have enough experience on the field at all ,chit I been a sheetmetal journey man going on 26 yrs and these guys think they know all from reading

    The thing that has always kept me out of fire is that I have never been part of a union, the osha guys like to pick on you all.

    I'm in that weird spot.

    Won't get hired due to lack of experience.

    I like that kind of work, the office gets mad when I come tracking mud into the place, but they also don’t provide any way for me to clean them.
