I recieve un warranted abuse from subcontractors, get half answers from architects to give our superintendants, so that they have about half of what they need in information in order to construct a building that needs to be deemed perfect by the people that won't give you the information you need, or when they do it is either not on time, or completely incorrect. Then they want you to answer their questions for them so that they can either take credit for them or have someone else to blame.

But see, you have never been on one of my jobs.

My mantra is something along the liknes of:

Any Subcontractor found walking around the job site with a smile is subject to back charge and contract renegotiation until such time as said smile dissapears completely or becomes an expression of angst.

Well, if you are the project manager, i don't see how anyone ever walks around with a smile, unless of course it is after the classic joke of turning over the porta-pottie after the project manager goes in. >:(:D:D

Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

And then he takes out his angst on poor, innocent DD'ers like Acme...:(

Acme: "Hi! Whatcha doin'?" :)Turtle: "Working." >:(
Acme: "Going jumping today?" :)Turtle: "No." >:(
Acme: "I'm going jumping today!" :)Turtle: "I'm kinda busy right now." >:(
Acme: "Oh, Ok. Goodbye, Turtle." :(

SUCH A MEANY!!!! :P;):D
