The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow.

Don’t know who wrote it but I like it!
 
“You have to build 100 bridges before anyone will call you bridgebuilder. You suck one dick and you’re a cocksucker for the rest of your life”
~me to my young apprentice this morning when I caught him doing some extra shit for the Site Safety guy. He didn’t get it, probably never will.
 
Safety guy wasn’t bored, he was looking for a ladder so he could get himself into trouble. I told the kid to act like this guy doesn’t exist if he walks on site, as you can imagine he did not retain these simple instructions. The ladder was not DOB approved and I got a phone call shortly after this. Kid doesn’t realize yet not to volunteer yourself or try to kiss ass. He did however learn about overhead work with a hammer drill, never once thought to just go up to the next floor and drill down. Said his shoulders hurt, I said pain is just weakness leaving the body, he didn’t understand that either. Kids a work in progress.
 
You’re cracking me up brother. Hahaha

You got your hands full. Get the kid whipped into shape and he’ll be telling war stories about you 20 years from now… “there was this hard azz…”
 
20 years from now that kids gonna be talking about how he was an electrician for a year when he was 19 then decided to go to college, which he will then be paying off late into his life.
