Because they aren't working and the Baby Momma is.

Jonathan should have won, but you have to give it to Aubrey. She was on the bottom the whole game and everytime her alliances made a move it fell apart.

Jonathan almost got zero votes during the game, and he doesn't win. I really think no one respected he and Joe's game. I think he fell back to Cirie to often and let her change his move. Then he let Rizzo take credit for getting her out.

Overall, not a great season.

God this woman is miserable.

I am starting to think it will be Tiff and Aubrey in the final, from the beginning episodes, neither of them got decent edits. I don't think Tiff said anything for the first 3 and was barely shown. I', not an Aubrey fan, but they keep showing her and she has been on the bottom the entire game but at least has tried to do different things with different people. I think the stubbornness of certain players has always sort of thwarted her plans has kept in in that position. No one fears a Joe vote, no one fears a Tiffany vote, she just keeps winning immunity. Jonathan is all over the place with his alliances and it is surprising no one has said; " hey let's vote Jonathan out."

You would almost hope that the producers look at the final people and say we need to shake this up. Maybe since Tiff looks like the favorite, they decide to leave it alone.

Just a few points on this:

1. Most guys chasing out of state dollars are set up to chase out of state dollars. Camper, traveling buddies, etc. Work for the same contractors and build a reputation.
2. I gave you a range for the Direct Hires, Supervision makes way more than directs, not to mention truck allowances, phones, gas cards, etc.
3. You cannot build a facility with just helpers, so no; the majority of people on the job aren't making $30 which would be a person green off the street with no skill set. Say a firewatcher or a flagman. A skilled Mechanic would be at $150.
4. Foremen make a few dollars more than mechanics, so they are above the top of the scale.
5. I told you they updated the prevailing wages. You can try to go out there with low wage people, but they will quickly leave. I have seen whole jobsites shut down because a contractor on the same project is paying a $1 more an hour.
6. Also, most of the guys chasing out of town money don't work a full year. They work nine months and then come home when it gets really cold and go hunting or vacations, fishing, whatever.
7. There are a ton of people that have been doing that for thirty years, but usually if you get to that stage, you have moved to Supervision or another job where you aren't travelling. However, even mtce workers who stay at the same facility forever, still have to go outside and do some work. Plant Operators the same.

You are literally making all these assumptions, but most of those travelling guys work 9 months out the year and have a paid for new truck, boat, golf cart, side by side, etc. You can't compare what industrial workers make to the local guy who does residential electrical work or carpentry makes. Same as offshore workers, and so on and so on.

The schedule of 6-10's or 7-12's is pretty standard for large industrial projects. Most of these guys won't even go on a job if it doesn't have OT. So that guy is making 10 hours of time and a half every week at minimum. Even the guys staying home are getting that.

A real project is the Eli Lilly Lebanon Indiana Plant Expansion. They just updated the prevailing wages of the Union Workers for the project. It also raised the wages for all non-Union workers. As of now, it is based on a 6-10 schedule, but it will be 7-12's pretty quickly. The GPC is extremely behind on engineering and execution. Go ahead and Google it. There are companies working out there now and several set to mobilize this summer.

If you get hired on, you stand to make a range from $30 to $150 per hour based on experience and up to $200 per day per diem. It depends on what the company who hired you has negotiated, but most guys get out there and jump ship to the highest paying contractors as soon as they can.

This is an expansion of their GLP-1 products, so it is clearly a job for tradesmen to help take care of office workers and fat people. It is a several billion-dollar expansion of their facilities all inside buildings and highly specialized.

Tom Brady now owns part of it and they started sponsoring the NFL combine. They hadn't really had much innovation until the new Golf shoes this year. They are starting to phase out all the crazy colors and designs which for some reason were mostly in the Men's shoes. If you have visited their site, you know what I mean. I think those designs are no longer a focus. I find they hold up really well but are heavy.

I have some Inov8's now that are ugly, but very durable and comfortable. It took me a while to break them in, but they are really great now. I think they're the Danni Speegle Sponsored model. F-lite Max.

See the movie "Grand Torino" for context.

I've had several Curs, used them for cattle. Ours were small but ran them with big headed curs often. Most people thought Big Curs have too much mouth for Cows but make good hog dogs. They will cross them with Pitts as catch dogs. That is fun to watch. They wear vests to protect the dogs from the cutters (tusks). A rank pig will gut a dog. Also, nutria, a random big nutria who happens to be in the area will tear a dog to pieces.

Some of the guys I rode with never put a hand on them. They loaded into the trailer, loaded into the pen. Only really worked with a whip and a horse. I kept my male as a cow dog and a pet. He wasn't in the house, but I worked with him, so he got in the truck and went everywhere I wanted to go. He would go in and get out of the bay when I would tell him. When driving the cattle, he would get behind the horses without cracking the whip. Not many did that. He would jump in the truck, instead of the trailer with the other dogs, so that didn't always work with some of the guys we rode with. They would try to force him in the trailer and he would run off. He would go if I fussed him, but he didn't like it. He was very smart, but as an owner you had to understand them and not get frustrated.

People say they are hardheaded, but I think they get so excited when working that they are more like pack dogs and only listen to the dominant dog when working. All we ever needed was three dogs to "bay" the cows. You have to be smart and let them work some and the cows will calm down. Then you pull them back and you drive the cattle where you are going. If they are really trained, you can send them out to get a lose Cow or Bull or one that tries to take off. Most people didn't train their dogs that well, so they didn't really work that way. One good dog can train the others. If they aren't trained, they will takeoff on a cow and the cow is usually going to her calf, so you have to get there before they tear up the calf.

Mine was very smart and really loved it when we were working cattle. He would whine the whole time until I told to go. He was about 40-50lbs, so he wasn't small. I've got pictures of him being flung in the air from different bulls when he would grab an ear and the bull tried to shake him. They would take random kicks or shots from the cows and keep going. Very tough. Only problem is once the cattle are dog broke, they don't fight, so the dogs don't have to work much. A Catahoula with a good handle will go anywhere and do anything you ask of them and love doing it. I've had black mouths like that as well. Some of the guys don't like them because they have a lot of bite as well.

If you work with it and early, you can get a Cur to do anything you want. You have to have the time and the room for it.

If that was the case, Thurgood Marshall would have been impeached based on many of his blatant decisions.
