If the angry client wanted to make them look like a ripoff they could have exaggerated the rates. The rates seem very reasonable considering the salaries for a good project manager would be around 100k, benefits and a truck. What was odd though is they have a "project coordinator" who is only billed at $54/man hour. Sounds like they were nightmare clients from the start and were on an island which is a 4 hour round trip, couldn't get any trades out there and had to abandon the project because they were being abused. Then 3 different family members left 1 star reviews.

I pay 30% taxes but our gas is $8/gallon and cigarette are $20/pack. Can barely afford to get my gallon and pack of smokes every night.

The fastest way to make an extra $560/month and cover rising gas costs is stop smoking.

Or stop driving to support smoking habit.

I bought a vape thing but it broke within a couple days. Not sure what to do. I guess I could buy a better vape device?

My brother dropped a 20 year smoking habit the week before his kids were born. Cold turkey. So can you.

Nobody’s scaling anything in my area in this labour market. Applications dried up completely and $25/hr cad not enough to get someone.

got my hands on pricing from one of the big construction companies in my area, $74 for general labour, $85 carpentry and $105 for manager time

That's CAD though, right? In US dollars that would be $57/hr, $65/hr, and $80/hr.
Sounds pretty low to me. The way I see it, if anyone in my area is at less than $60/hr for general labor, they are doing something wrong...

My foreman bought a vape thing to try and quit. He used to smoke maybe three or four cigarettes during the work day. Now he hits that vape pen like every 10 minutes. Can't be better for you...

It has been shown that vaping is more dangerous and detrimental to ones health than smoking.

I quit smoking in 2001. It's hard, but worth it. 20 dollars is nothing compared to living longer.

Someone is. There are plenty of big companies here still running multiple crews.

You're going to have a hard time scaling anything.

haha you seem the most triggered of all. i just wonder why that is

They already had things set up. They aren’t expanding currently though. Nobody is. If anything some of these companies that got too much overhead will fail

Chantix was my game changer. 15 years at a pack a day. Within a month after starting chantix I was done. That was almost 7 years ago or just over I believe. Only had one crazy lucid dream where I brushed all the teeth out of my mouth... Man that was a wild one so real feeling. But hey it worked. I can't imagine smoking at today's prices. Marlboros we're getting close to $4 and some change when I quit.

The sad part is that you seem to believe that you have the ability to trigger anyone. You don't.

The sad part is that poor woman on a pension probably lost 200k in wealth just this month, I would give her a discount.

 

[Mitty87]

Another 25k today. Property values in my area down significantly since February. Probably 15-20%. Hope they can get cut in half

She got it "done" cause someone magically did a quote and got hired within hours of her rant remember? Doesn't need my help.
