I ran a lot of jobs as Pipe fitter foreman and I had 3 gals that worked for me. They did what was asked and I never had to run any of them off.

I dont like it. I cant just pee where ever anymore on the construction jobs I am on.

Are you afraid of getting a new nickname "Peewee"? smile

When I was running the crew, the women were the WORST! There were two of them that would drop their drawers right in the middle of the road in front of the other 19 people. If they had to go, they had to go. I had to give them some positive direction.

Had a women forester drop her drawers a pee about forty yards in front of me two days ago. She didn’t know I was there. I was turkey hunting uphill of a new logging trail and in full camo. Her and her dog came driving up in her Tacoma, presumably to mark timber for a new cut and I guess she had to go.


Eh...wot?

As far as women in construction; I’ve been in residential construction and remodeling most of my life. I’ve worked lots of jobs with women on various crews and a few on my crews. Most seemed capable. About the only problem I saw was that the good-looking ones were a distraction to the men.

Yep. And the more attention they get, the worse they become.
I've worked with some great hard working women.
Show them respect if due and don't try to get in their pants.


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

I don't disagree but it is their fault or the guys? I hear what you are saying though.

My son is a licensed general contractor in a family owned business. They do large commercial projects. About 20% of his project managers and superintendents are female. Good estimators as well.

Don't be a hater just because they shoot you down. My old boss back in the early 90's was the first Female Hotshot Crew Superintendent. That woman was as tough as nails. She would whoop your backside, drink you under the table that night and then PT you to death the next morning. I had NOTHING but respect for her. She was given nothing and worked like a dog to get where she was.

Nope, I am a "Cash and Carry" sort of guy. I will toss you the Benji's when I show up to chase your pet Rooster Pheasant this October. Feel free to come blast a few of my pet grouse ahead of time too. Hettinger, huh? smile

If I leave enough cash, can the hound and gal from Hettinger come home with me? If not, How about just the dog? I like to prioritize. If you want to run that hound on some private land, free ranged organic, dang near hand fed grouse let me know. I don't typically shoot them here on the home place.
