Reply to comment by Professional_Fox4467 in I love how much we pay these guys to stand around. there was 8 of them standing there doing nothing. later on when I came home even more of them doing nothing. by ResultedTag72

I don't need to be in anything to be able to spot bullshit. Construction is one of the most corrupt and wasteful industries ever.

You sound like a moron who has no idea how construction works. Do you really have nothing better to do?

Honestly how upset you keyboard warriors are is hilarious. I will keep going. I know public utilities is wasting millions and months behind schedule. That's facts my road being closed for 9 months I'm allowed to be annoyed with. All the uneducated and lower class being upset at this is super funny.

Not a troll. I have just come to the realization that the people on this subreddit. Do not care that public utilities is months behind schedule burning tax money. I also present a genuine picture of 8 people standing around doing nothing. Then they defend the fact no works being done. Clearly they aren't smart enough to think about this critically. So why try and explain it.

Because you clearly don’t understand how construction works, and when called in your ignorance you fall back on ad honemheims. If you revel in being ignorant you are acting like an attention seeking troll.

I understand being three months behind schedule means you're slow. It's not up in the air I work in operations. If you're scheduled to be done March 1st and get extended until August. You're slow I can attest to daily seeing them doing nothing. Which if they are way behind schedule and I see them doing nothing daily then I'm not ignorant. I can literally see how it's failing.

You still don’t understand why a construction worker would be on call even though you have already gotten a good explanation (which even only touches on some reasons why they would have to wait, like waiting on permits). Until you know enough to even be able to tell the difference in work/not work, you don’t have a leg to stand on.

I'm pretty sure when one guy is in the hole digging and 8 guys are watching him. They aren't working. Last week I saw 5 of them dispatched to do something in a man hole. So there was 3 trucks with 4 guys watching the one guy in the manhole.

You’ve just proved my point, again.

Then I guess I will never understand paying way to many people than is needed and the job be months behind schedule.
