Tagging along from one of the previous posts about people’s jobs, what are your favorite things about your job. If you can’t think of anything, then what are your least favorite things about it or what do you think you’d like to do instead if you could?
My favorite thing is the appreciation we get from passerby. I’ve never had a job where people are genuinely appreciative of what we are doing, and it’s nice to get that feedback from people even though the work itself can be pretty difficult. If there wasn’t that for my job, it would certainly be less rewarding.
General contractor or subcontractor ?
General. Finish carpentry is in-house, just about everything else is subbed out. We have some fantastic subs too. My plumber has worked with me for close to 30 years. We sort of came up together. And my electrician is the most particular electrician I’ve ever worked with.
