When I was foreman for a smaller masonry company, and I’d get a new labourer on the job. Depending on how green he was I’d take him around introduce him to the bricklayer’s and other helpers. The I would tell them two things, 3 things I don’t want to hear on this job , oops, oh oh, holy **** cause that means something really bad happened. The other thing I would tell them is I’M AN ASSHOLE and I’m good at it. After 2,3 weeks they’d come and say your not much of An asshole. I’d look square in eyes and say “you haven’t tried me yet. Then chuckle. Usually all was good.
