Thats pretty damn accurate. As far as the Asian welder we had quite a few of them come through. Mcdermott had some Women Vietnamese, they welded their asses off.

The videos are funny but I’ve never saw workers talk trash to safety before. Plants I’ve worked in wouldn’t tolerate that.
Maybe not to the plant safety guy but to their own contract safety guys I've seen them do it. It's usually some dipshit who worked in the crew and moved into safety. Then all the workers know him so they give him shite every time he tries to correct them.

Too busy planning lunch or checking their eyelids for pinholes on the board.

I've see a pipe foreman knock out a safety man. Then a foreman knock out a superintendent. But nothing that dramatic since the 70's and 80's. More horse play than anything. Every place I've been the guards are smart asses until they need to get their POS son a job.

Cooking Jambalaya in the Control room and avoiding first line breaks at all cost. Recently 2 operators were at a bar making a claim they did all the first breaks until the 2 contractors they always call for operator assist walked in.

I can guaranty that if a contractor talked to anyone in our H & S group that way they'd be escorted off the site and blackballed for life at any of our sites in NA.

Did you work in Belle Chasse back in the day?

God I'm glad I got an education.

I am too, but I did shite plant contract work through college. Horrible work, but there was never a dull moment. I cried laughing at least once a day/night. If you’re not a stuck up dickhead it’s loads of fun.

I used to hear that all the time when they would bitch to me about their pay

Now, if you're talking about the ones running the plant behind the board - that's exactly what you want to be able to do. That's the goal - have everything line out and basically run itself.

I was in the same mindset. I hired on, green as frick, with a big general contractor to do estimating/planning etc. They sent me to work on a site to gain experience, and on my first day there, I walked into the lunch-tent-safety-meeting and thought " Man, these ain't my people" I was downright terrified.
Looking back on it now, I'm really glad I had the chance to do it. I've met some of the coolest MF's around, and gained valuable experience that I carry with me to this day. Im still doing estimating, but for a different company.
But to make a comment on your post; The construction/ refinery industry has some of the brightest minds in the workforce, but it also attracts some of the dumbest minds.

The biggest benefits I got out of it were it paid for my education and I learned how to deal with everyone. The ability to talk to those guys in the field has proven invaluable in my current mostly white collar position. Everyone should do that kind of work for 6 months at some point in their life.

Brah, transfer to another unit or go to another plant.
Hell, us operators get our operator jobs so we can kick our feet up on the desk and bitch about maintenance making us write a work permit.
It's not always that easy, but most of the time it is. There's some plants on the river that I'd swear is hydrocracking vanilla out of the ice cream because their operators never have to do shite.
