The supervisor is telling the hourly worker he makes a salary of $50,000 a year and does not have to dig in a hole, or put on the tyvek suit as he get's paid anyway.

Supervisor on truck. Guy #2 operating backhoe, guy #1 (rant starter) still has shovel. Guy #3 is having the worlds loudest phone conversation, while eating something from a Prepperidge Farm bag. Four workers, two working. I guess the other two are just the driver/transporters.

Neighbor told me it's the 18th time the pipe has bust sine 1994.

50k isn't too bad to sit in a truck. That must not be too competitive a field though. I can out sit someone in a truck like nobody's business for 5k cheaper.

Oh okay, got it. Seems obvious now, but I guess that mindset is so foreign to me that I have to twist my brain to see it.

Accomplishing a task efficiently and doing a good job is not something that these men value. I guess that's a bit harsh, and God knows that I'm not always performing my duties at peak output, but I certainly feel that nudge of gullt if I'm standing around while co-workers are toiling.
