Here’s another on the same construction manager. Before he became “educated”, he worked for us as a sheet metal journeyman. We had a large job for ALCOA. They had made several pieces of ductwork (approx. 100 or more). They were in the process of making a delivery and was placing the ductwork in a truck. He was told to write every piece down on a piece of paper before loading them into the truck. To keep track of each piece, so duplication would not happen. He finally got the truck loaded and they were getting ready to leave. The foreman asked him where the sheet was with the parts listed. He told him he didn’t make a list. The foreman said, “why not”? CM’s response was, “I didn’t have a pencil”. Obviously, there’s been no improvement over the years.
