I once rented a room from a guy whose job was to lead a “follow” crew behind crews that were building houses. I job was to fix mistakes that the building crew had made during the initial build.
I’m glad he had a job, but it stems like the builder could have saved a lot of money by just moving a little slower, and doing it right the first time. Then again, maybe the cheaper labor building the houses offset the extra cost.
- coryrc 5y agoProblem I get into: spending so much time thinking about the right/most efficient/best way to do something that I don't get anything done. I'd be more productive of I could just work at one thing continuously and let someone be an expert at fixing the trickiest cases. Also, houses settle. Cracks can show up after you are done regardless.
