$25 hr x 3% = $25.75

Soaring out of control.

Top guys get $50 an hour and you dont have a crew of those guys.

even the unions run on average at $30 an hour. fuck, even union supervisors only make $32!!! granted they have good benefits (health care paid for, and ~$5/hr into retirement).... yes like you said its about a $50/hr overall package and most of the non union shops have guys at that level but only 1 or 2, the rest are just indians making $20/hr with no bennies.

just another bullshit article. i really should have been a journalist. i bet the guy who did that article made $10k last month

...or you could just ask someone that paid guys to build houses for the last 15 years....might tough to find someone like that though.

Construction workers have it pretty easy actually.
Most of them get 3 months off every year.

if u think its an easy job try it sometime

And not many have 3 months off, most have to work when its 20 below.

And most that actually do get time off are taking a huge pay hit because theyre on unemployment

VERY few actually make enough to sit back 3 months a year when its cold and not worry about it.

Contrustion is a brutal job. Its not like it used to be 20+ years ago when it was fun.

It was a joke about another thread. Try and keep up.

Teachers don't get the benefit of the big "pay hit" because they can't take unemployment when they are off.
