Quote: I'm a union carpenter. I don't rebuild things, I do it right the first time.
I also watch non union workers take my job. Time to go back to the old days.
Darrin, I was amazed while I was working in Jersey a few years back at the residential builders. I couldn't believe the things they were doing Sure seemed to make things harder. Here in St. Louis, we have a strong lock on residential building, about 95% of homes here are union built. As far as I know, it's not like that anywhere else in the country. I work commercial almost exclusively, but will go out and build houses and decks when I need to.
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.
