 You've got to be shitting me.

2 drywall mex finish lower level of house, I give them $1300 same day. Tonight they call and say,

   "Hey, we're just cleaning up the upstairs, we'll be done in an hour? (9pm/empty house). When are you gonna be here?"

Me: I'm not coming there. I'm wrapped up taking care of something else.

  "But I thought you were gonna pay us tonight?".

Me: No, I told you I got the check from the customer today, for the work that you'll still need an hour to finish. Yep, I got the check for the whole job BEFORE you were finished. I've simply got to go to the bank tomorrow, then everyone will get paid.


  After that I think I heard a snivel. Does anyone else go to work, and after an hour tell your boss that you need to be paid for the hour you just worked?  I feel sick knowing somebody could be that hard up for money, especially when I gave the two of them $1300 for last week.

  On top of that, I've got my known idiot mex working this week, and nothing surprises me with him. He has one rule: Whatever you do, DON'T TALK TO THE CUSTOMER. I can buy him dinners and drive him home everyday, and he still doesn't have $2 in his pocket for the cheap cigarettes he smokes. He wanted 20 bucks today too, so he packed 175 bags of insulation in my garage, and cleaned the truck. These fucken beaners amaze me.

I will never hire another hispanic to do any work for me ever again unless they are truly Americanized.  They live in shitty houses, with shitty things, and have shitty work ethics.  How can you expect an ounce of craftsmanship in those circumstances?  Not to mention, you can never pay them on time or ahead of time.  You always have to be behind.  They will do the work, bail, and leave you with half-assed bullshit work done claiming it is done right.  Now they have no incentive to come back because they're paid.

I'm sure someone will jump on me for being racist at some point, but fuck it.  Stereotypes come about for a reason.

Hate to say it but there is truth here.  People didn't just randomly say Asians cant drive and white people love country music and nascar.

My problem is A) folks want to group anyone into this category and B) no one really wants to say its a problem cause like you just said, apparently stating facts and trends is racist if it concerns ethnic groups that are Non white.

Qik i award you an internet sir.  you beat me to the "Hey mike sucks cause he dont work" joke.

About 7-8 years ago 90% of them were here to earn a buck, and were hard workers.  It has changed.

You guys keep paying them for this failure work ethic, and you know what?  Not their fault, and the problem isn't theirs.  It's merely the trickle down effect of our culture's lack of work ethic and wanting to get paid for doing jack shit like we're better than everyone else.  The failure work ethic originated in the white men who were too good to do that job, and therefore whatever substandard workmanship the mexicans who have replaced them are known for is the standard fare because you guys keep paying them to do it.

spiker doesnt work......................... and he is white

You can hire Hispanics to work for you.  You need to supervise them more than other workers, but they will do what you tell them as long as you stand there to make sure.  They like making money and typically want to keep their jobs.  Especially if you pay a "fair wage".  You train them enough, you may be actually able to leave them for 6-8 hours and have the work be decent enough where you only have to redo a few things at the end of the day.

I've learned never to trust a bunch of 1st generation Hispanics to do any work by themselves.  You are just asking for trouble doing so.

I'm well aware.  They charge 5% less, get the job done, but the craftsmanship is absolute shit.  Even if the supervisor knows a damn thing, they are on 6 different job sites, and their workers are untrained lazy sacks of shit.  Most people are cowards and let the substandard work slide and pay upfront.  My parents just had some work done, I told them how to do things, they ignored me, and got beat on everything I told them.  They were too afraid of something to the guy.  He got paid in full and did some bullshit half assed work which I will end up having to fix.  At least I get smarter every day.

Well, I've been in this game, and been on the other end of sub contract work to know the rules. The problem isn't that they've been paid, because they haven't. I had a customer with an old plaster house, bumpy walls, and wanted the walls and ceilings flat, to appear as newer drywall.

I get these two guys operating as a "company", where I can do a sub contract deal and evade any/all "they're my employees" regulations. The downstairs is done, and these guys do fucken bomb diggity work. The walls are flat as ass, with no flaws whatsoever. It's just the fact that they know THEY aren't working for THE homeowner, I am. If they WERE, the customer would inspect the work tomorrow (not coming out at 9pm), and write them a check tomorrow. I told them I'd PAY them tomorrow, and not in phony checks or anything without green and a white house on it, and that seems to be absurd on my part?





The known idiot is a guy that does idiot work for me from time to time. I've got a large community that needs some insulation work, and an idiot to shove the bags in the machine while my REAL craftsman are inside the house/running the show. Otherwise that moron wouldn't be here, and he knows it.

My rant again is not with the work performed, but the urgency of payment needed, when I've done everything I can to be the best guy they ever worked for, and it's not enough because they have no sense of financial management.

you trust one that close to the shuttle?

[Stealthmode]

  Shuttle was pulled in after he packed it. I don't even shake that filthy fucks hand if I've washed my hands in the last 4 hours.

  The good part about idiot boy is that he knows he's a 42 yr old metsican (he's mexican and can't even pronounce it, hence the metsican title), and he knows his fucken place and tries his best. He's also completely happy with the peanuts I throw his way.
