Turns out it was me to blame. Apparently, I offended some of the thin skinned union bros when I questioned their ability to install equipment that they have never seen before, but
put up all the time. I was actually named in the meeting and I was told I needed to be "nicer". I could only laugh. What a bunch of pussys. Be nice.

I have been nice! What the hell would they do if I was actually nasty? Would they go into shock and curl up in a fetal position on the floor??
The end result of that meeting as that the vendor (that I work for) needed to hire on another
skilled plumber/worker. We can't work during their breaks or lunch. We can't work overtime. Ah yes - we now have momentum!
Also - I might need to start a whole seperate thread on the elevator guy. I could go on all day about the fat arsed guy who makes $50+/hr on the check for simply pushing the button. We have a lot of equipment to move and it all has to happen during his regular work day and not during breaks - God no!! Just that one union BS factor alone costs this project his near 6 figure wage not to mention all the costs related to the inefficiency of not being able to use the elevator after 3:20 PM.
