what do you do at your job?

I install granite, mostly kitchens

Is a pimp ever really not working??

Yay another 13 hour day. I am going to go home now.



I guess I shouldn't complain, since there are so many TCS ballers that are working 30 hour days 8 days a week according to this thread.

I worked 36 hours straight once, it sucked

Up unitl recently the last year as been an average of 65-70hr weeks. Kinda burns you out after a while. Wouldnt be so bad if it wasnt physical labor for all of it but I have gotten in pretty good shape and made some dough so it has been worth it.

When we have huge watermain breaks, ones that supply more than a thousand people, putting them out of water (which has only happened once or twice in my 8 years at this place) I've worked 2-3 days straight and then came in and did follow ups for about a week after of 16 hour days.

After the first 24 hours your up you go into auto pilot. Sometimes you catch a 30minute nap waiting for supplys,another truck ect... Its not fun especially when what you do is physically demanding. We're not actually supposed to work more than 16 hours at a time, I kinda snuck those ones in under the radar.

People say the paychecks are great, all i saw was more taxes being taken out. I havent done one in a couple years.. and am probably not going to voulenteer for one again either.

Yeah no shit. They take more taxes out of my weekly check than I used to take home in 2 weeks. Then they ask us to do extra trucks if we are willing to stay on the weekends. F that.

I only work between 40-50 hours a week at the office , but I am always working. My phone is always on and always ringing. OH there it goes again. Gotta go.
