Big concrete driveway in the hot sun, shorthanded, tempers fly!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 чер 2021
- This video captures the raw emotion and pure exhaustion of a stressful concrete pour, shorthanded on a hot day. Every concrete guy has been there and it's not fun. Share your stories down in the comments. I'm sure there are a ton on them.
The day we poured concrete started off like every other day. Until I got the exact text message that I didn't want, which set everyone including myself in a very bad mood. Tempers were flying and exhaustion set in quick. It was one of those days where you just can't drink enough water even if you try. We were all cramping up but we survived. As I state in the video, every concrete season is a war, every concrete pour is a battle. Unfortunately one of my workers lost his job today.
Ryan, your team did at excellent job being short handed and the extreme heat. I still have to say no to $2500 for my car. Thank you and the new driveway looks great!
Your welcome, let me know later about the car. Maybe I could scrape together $3000 😂
That ZL1 is nice, I have a 6th gen ZL1 but that 5th gen almost makes me wanna change my mind.
I hauled concrete for 27 years, was it possible for you guy's to form as you went so you coulda pull the beginning of the pour and not use them Georgia buggies?
@@tonyandreoli8180 Sir you are looking at it from a drivers point of view .
No good working shorthanded. Concrete don't wait for nobody.
As someone who does concrete, alot of people don't realize how impressive this is, good job man 👏👍
Thank you man, good comments from actual concrete guys mean the most 👊
Concrete lives matter 💪🤜💥🤛😎
@@VictoryOutdoorServices my name is Shaun I like your UA-cam channel
This video is deceptive that was an amazing job done..... That was very impressive. Not many who can get that done.
I can agree with that . People don’t realize how much work it is to be on your knee and back edging , troweling , screeding . Boss man makes it look to easy . Two big thumbs up from a placer from Canada . Forgot to mention , you have a hell of a crew man those boys get er done
Just come over from the new video to refresh. Man, time has flown by! Kinda miss the old crew but, the new crew is dope too
I love the when he was like “ you didn’t show up again, you’re fired!” In front of everyone :) gave the boys some motivation.
WHO was fired though ?

@@ashveensharma5468you sure?
@@lewiswillson99yeah I'm pretty sure he had already found a new job but he said he would stay and work until friday or whatever his start day was at the new job and then just didnt come. I think.
This is a leader not a boss. He’s down there with his men doing the dirty grunt work as well.
Exactly, the most successful companies are the ones that are in the trenches with their people. They have a pulse on what’s going on. There’s a guy I knew back in the day who owned about 20 different restaurants. At the end of the night at some of the ones he was at he’d be on his hands and knees scrubbing the floors with his workers. You’d never even know he owned everything.
@@andydrew3320 Free Labor lol
It's called a working boss
He has to be there as a small business. His business won't last three days not constantly supervising
As a concrete finisher out of Wisconsin for 8 years now it is definitely different seeing the boss with a come along. I’ll have to agree 100%. This man is a leader no doubt.
Gotta love scrubbing that Crete in that heat! 💪🏼
It feels so odd watching these older ones and Eric not being there yet. He was a pleasant addition to the crew

Came back to watch again, after your returning to this customer! Miss the triumphant battle horn music.
Hats off to you Ryan. As a mason, and small business owner from Hawaii, I felt all the same emotions watching this video. It's days like this that really test your character, and faith. Glad you guys got it done. Awesome job Victory
MMT💯
I remember 10 years ago when I got my driveway redone, I was shocked about the price for doing my driveway then the concrete person explained and I didn’t complain anymore. I never knew how tideous the work was. Always appreciate people who do concrete for a living
No way, it’s EASY MONEY man
Haha yea right they booked u
when he screamed "YOURE FIRED" at his phone... i felt that
I felt fired lol and I don't work there 🤣
Right I went ahead and called in and cancelled my call in haha
They just rehired again
Same
@@keithcook4537…yeah that aged well🤣Marcel barely ever gets brought up anymore…Ryan lost his trust in him
I like that you mentioned the nervousness when the truck arrives. I always did the same when I worked a crew years ago. It lends to your focus and sense of urgency, I believe. It's how you deliver on days like the one you had here.
I love your videos. I can tell you take great pride in your work because every job you finish is perfection. It's funny I own an excavating road-building outfit and when im at home in my slippers im watching you guys work. It's also refreshing to see someone like you that tells it how it is. No sugar coating anything. Just honesty and integrity. And the level of transparency you have with clients is all but none existent in today's society.
As a lineman in Georgia that works in 100 degree heat in the summer I can completely justify the heat being a huge issue. Great work man!
Thank you for the work you do. A friend of mine was a lineman, and until he told me, I never gave a thought about working in the heat, in a bucket truck with all the safety gear that you guys have to wear. After hearing that, I am more patient when the power goes out, knowing that it will be restored.
@@JasonTAho not all lineman work on power just FYI. A lineman can be someone who strings coax, fiber or copper cable.
@Ehs Giraffe..I live in az where it’s 120 in the summer time
@@2shotsofvaca411 never thought of it like that. Thanks for enlightening me.

Ryan, you guys and your crew are the consumate professionals in concreting, there doesn't seem a situation you are not prepared for. Warmest congratulations from Australia. John
Love your work Ryan. You guys rock. Stay firm but fair!
Hi Ryan, been watching your videos everyday here in the UK and just want to say amazing workmanship and I have used some of your knowledge and incorporated in to our concrete works! A massive inspiration you and your team!

Thanks for the shout-out 😃..wasn't expecting that! I really enjoy the videos, the crew, the good work you guys do, and your humor and personality.
Yooo Fam, long time no meet
Absolutely love to content! Great to see the team come together and push through for the finish! All the best from the UK!
I think this is my favorite episode
It’s refreshing to see him fire someone
He’s always nice and understanding
Gotta put your foot down every now and then
Boss is always the only one to get rich.. no risk no reward… when my uncle used to hire illegal Mexicans back in the early 2000’s.. he would hire an extra one… and the first one to sit down or work like chit, he would fire immediately.. and then all the others worked hard the rest of the day.. I’ll never forget that
Once again! Love your videos and the work you do! Even down to how you interact with your workers and people in public.
You’ll did a awesome job laying even with all of the hardships you and your team faced that day.
I love this channel. This is the best thing I've come across when watching concrete jobs. Other channels don't quite show the same work you do. Man I love this keep up the amazing work
Came BACK to this video from todays vid (12-16-22) and WOW what a difference a year makes man! Really enjoy the channel. STAY BLESSED MUCH LOVE!
First video I have seen by you guys. I would have never in a million years thought that I would enjoy watching concrete dry lol but seeing the great looking work magically appear out of the slop you dump down is mesmerizing
LOL!!! “watching concrete dry” 👍
Man that’s crazy, how can someone not show up when they got a steady and good company. I work with a shitty family owned concrete company and i still do my best to show up everyday we got work. Unbelievable how some people take some things for granted. All you can do as a good worker is keep up the good work 🤷♂️
This reminded my of my boss. If I asked my boss to get something like stakes he would have looked at me like I had three heads. I do steel demo. We cut up and remove 3k lbs of steel everyday but he gets annoyed when we ask him for more sawzall blades. He thinks we can cut for 8hrs a day with 2 blades. Cheap ass fuckin blades he buys too lol
@@caseyschmidt6532 You work for an idiot, move on. Employers that don't invest in tools have a low quality mindset that doesn't allow you to you maximize the value of your service.
My new boss told me anything I need I'll have it, equipment, tools, etc. They just bought a dump truck, backhoe, skid steer, etc. That's an employer worth proving myself to as a person who values productivity over all. They are serious and aggressive so I'll have to stay on point, but I'm not worried about my performance when they facilitate the experience.
I had 15 people quit on me a few weeks ago because of how hot it was outside (roughly 92°f). 5 people didn't even show up until 11:00 when work started at 7:00. I had 1 person who never quit, and they got a nice bonus after we were finished. Good workers are hard to find. Nobody wants to work, but everybody wants $50 an hour.
@@indysilver_02 hell 92° ain’t even bad I woulda showed on that. We had 115° up here which we have never had before where I’m at, a lot of people called in including myself, I work in a shop that has no fans and won’t even let you have a cooler. It’s atleast 130 in there if not more. Idk why they’d refuse at 90 😂
@@indysilver_02 How much do people usually make?
Your team appears to do great work. Even under pressure you still make it happen. Good job.
Love watching your videos man I'm a lead guy on my concrete crew and watching your videos have showed me a few little tips and tricks
Pretty work. Enjoyed the video!
85 in Texas is a mild spring day but it doesn't matter...you guys did a great job shorthanded and unaccustomed to the heat.
I lived in Houston for a year. I think saying 85 is a mild spring day is kind of making it seem worse than what it is.
Absolutely amazing work. Even really short-handed, working in hot weather and agitated, you guys kicked a**! Way to go.
Thank you.
“Go back to sleep Bob, it’s safer that way” 😂😂😂
Keep grindin!!! It's folks like you and the good members of your crew who are all artists that make our world a beautiful place. I hope you guys made a truckload of cash on that job!
One of the toughest jobs in the bizzz. Great job, you guys always make it look easy.
You are the first channel that I subscribe to that I actually get anxious waiting for new videos. You and your crew are great. Love your leadership! Keep up the great work!
As someone who’s been in concrete for 20 years I know your pain!!! Great job
I would have loved to have had a boss like you. Always calm and supportive of your guys.
Been doing concrete 20 years, went on my own this year. When you're the owner, you get the pre-pour butterflies everytime!
Ahhh sometimes I miss finishing nothing quite like the sound of a mag float on a fresh pour. You guys rock!
Whyd you stop?
@@BananaBoy_420 Probably the same reason I miss my mechanic days, the work can have small enjoyable aspects but tearing down your body in 100 degree heat isn't worth any amount of money, it's much better long term to find a better industry to get cozy in.
Dang, I would work for this guy in a heartbeat. I was a concrete laborer and this was better than our best day. Everyone was pissed off drunk and yelling the whole time. I was the only one who cleaned or prepped it seemed like. Yet everyone's tools stayed perfectly clean the second they out then down. Still got yelled at lol. Keep up the good work my guy.
I also got fired by the ForeMan when I called out. I had strep and tonsillitis so bad that I could barely swallow water let alone breathe. That was after he told me I could have a couple days off watching me hack all day
People don't know how lucky they are to have a boss like you.
You are an inspiration. A real upright man.
Much love from Essex 🇬🇧.
3weeks ago short handed dehydrated in the northeastern mississippi heat, by 7pm we could barley walk. Enjoyed the video✌
Humid down there too I bet.
@@VictoryOutdoorServices very
Love your videos man glad to see some finishers that can actually finish yall do A+ work 💪
I’m a year late but … you guys always seem to take the speed bumps dealt for the day and flatten them out. The attitude of the old school finishers showing up and the boss man helps.. Great work as always!!

Hey Ryan you and your crew do a great on every job you get I worked with my family in the concrete business for about a year in a half I’m gonna be honest it’s hard work but learn and I’m glad I did
As a concreter I see all the effort you guys put in. Choice one from New Zealand 🇳🇿 👍🏽
Turned out nice even being short handed. Alot of concrete to pour gotta give you n your guys alot of credit. For the guy that didn't show up good I'm glad you FIRED him nomore chances. Enjoy the rest of the weekend looking forward to the next video.
From your methods your solutions and the way you push yourself through when everything is against you is exactly what I go thru it’s worth all the trouble when you pull out at the end of the day all cramped up but hey job well done .
Even short handed you guys killed it! I did concrete in California for a few years it can get real ruff when people don't show up!
The algorithm pulled me towards your videos. I never knew that concrete pouring videos would be satisfying to watch. It helps that there is a genuine guy behind the channel. keep up the great videos!
Love the video dude. I can only empathize.
You guys did an excellent job under the circumstances. My compliments.
Big Fan of you good folks. Enjoy watching your channel and your work! Keep up the great customer service and being a good leader.
Love it!!! You have great presence and your editing is really good! I also think it's awesome that your daughter hangs out with you at the job site for the summer. Memories she will have for the rest of her life no matter bhow much she may groan. You relationship with your crew is what makes you successful...that's what people like to see....subscribed and looking forward to your videos.
This boss is a team player . True leader never let his boys down when it comes to grind time. 💪🏾
Man your work is really done well. You must have some of the Gumba blood in yah! Italian here. Seriously i began construction at the age of 14 yrs. hauled the shingles up a ladder ( no transport belt back then) I’m 68 now. I’ve participated from the ground up, the basement pour to the finishing work. Bricklaying arched fireplaces with the self made curved brace and hand spit keystone piece. Your attention to detail, planning and efficiency of motion style is admirable. The way you drive your crew by pulling not pushing them what makes you a good person to work for. The way you dig in and set the example by working as hard as your fellas is a lost art these days. Your guys all seem dedicated and good people and you give them chance to learn a trade on the job and a good dollar. If I hadn’t retired I’d fill in for your no shows, Mi here, love the snow.
I started with Hammett's concrete in Arkansas 5 years ago and I'm still enjoying it seen a lot of people come in go, awesome job on this pour
Not sure what it’s like in Wisconsin but here in California when the mud sets up Day1 Finishers Aid is our best friend
Bug loosing his $hit was funny AF. Marcel, You’re Fired!!
Ryan my name is Kerrie and I must say, you guys put your body's threw hell with the the heat laying this down and not giving up. Fantastic job!!
You all done a great job with being short handed ! Keep pounding and keep up the awesome work !!
I do concrete in New Mexico it’s reaching 100+ right now. When he says work fast dam he right ain’t no stopping neither till it’s finished ✅
Gotta love those lunch brakes! Lol 😂
Damn I should have watched this video before I accepted the job :P
It’s a good skill to know how to be yelled at. It’s good to remember they’re not mad at you just at what you’re doing.
Yep, it's all heat of the battle emotion, once it settles down everything is good again.
Yeah I was thinking about going into the building trades and then when I learned about the screamers I said nope. I mow lawns and do landscaping now. Not really what I want to do but I don't really have to get yelled at.
@@kobelcofan if you don’t mind me asking what do you make average?
@@zestooo6932 Gonna input here, landscaping and mowing services can provide a very fine salary, if done correctly of course haha. yearlys can go up to 100k+..
@@isaac.3347 That’s awesome man, I was aware of that. I was just wondering how common. Maybe the younger you are the better off you are. Would it be possible to landscape only on weekdays and make that money? Also is 2-3 employees all you need or less? Sorry and thanks for responding
Ryan, love watching your videos. Keep making them.
You do a great job handling your crew through good and tough times
Great leadership.
As someone from Colorado who now lives in Arizona with extreme heat best advice I can give you guys to kick ass on hot days is have your guys drink plenty of water and electrolyte drinks. Not Gatorade but the electrolyte drinks specifically. Anything with sugar like gatorade or pops is going to tire you all out. So plenty of water and at least 2 electrolyte drinks a day and you guys will be golden! Love the videos keep it up man✅
I'm a carpenter about to go out there for the first time. Thanks for the advice!
As a kid I worked with my grandfather that was a concrete mason. I’m in real estate now and general contractors. My job has bad days but nothing like when I used to work with my grandpa. We worked at airports and did major jobs. I remember that passing out, cramping and wanting to puke feeling and I was only a young teenager. Much respect for you and your crew for knocking out that amazing job and digging REALLY DEEP! The only thing I could compare to that was playing college football. Was so physically and mentally demanding. Mad respect!!
You're a guy I would love to work for. Great leadership and mentality. As a disabled vet, that kind of work is so rewarding and helps with my mental health. I live in AZ though so, Ill keep looking til I find a fit :) Love the content!
Awesome videos man. Love watching this. Takes me back to the good old days
Great work man it’s always tough when it’s hot.
I’ve been in business for a long time and finding good employees is like a winning lotto ticket few and far between. Great job 👏
Very difficult, I can't find ANY new employees right now. I have had an add for a week with nothing.
@@VictoryOutdoorServices sounds like many places here in Ontario. Tough to find good help, always giving people my word and sticking to it
I hate it when my helpers quit “they always do” because it usually takes several weeks to al Keats find one that can at least fill out an application. It’s ridiculous.
@@jamiller83 pay em more and they won’t quit.
People tend to leave when they don’t get paid enough to live or are treated poorly. You pay for what you get.
Just getting into your videos.. I’m 26 from the UK and pour fire rated cement systems (I know it’s not concrete) but you’re the only guy I’ve ever found who gets the same buzz and feeling off seeing a nice finish.
Keep up the good work it’s so inspiring and good to see someone share the same passion and have the same sense of humour while working 😅
I like to watch your video while I’m on break. You seem like a really good dude. Keep working hard man!
Oh my. You are beyond dedicated to do this. If this was me I would’ve called the job off for another day LUL. Good stuff Ryan
Thank you! Yeah calling something off is an option but my redi mix company is booked a solid week out. Then the homeowner gets mad and it messes up my schedule. I knew we could handle it but it was real close! Hopefully this week goes better.
This takes me back to when I was a kid. 12 years old and skipping school because my dad was short handed. I was running the buggy and my dad and cousin were pouring 40 yard driveways with 2 people. Backbreaking work when it’s 95 degrees you have no choice but to stay on it. Props for the hard work.
Thank you man. That will sure build character into a 12 year old!
@@VictoryOutdoorServices I have to say I enjoyed every minute of it not too mention he made sure to pay me like I was actually a grown up lol. Made me feel important with that 20 dollars in my pocket.
I loved the looks when I was just an employee, working a Saturday job, and brought my sons.
First time I had my boys on site with a new boss, he rolled his eyes but didn’t say anything as he watched my boys getting the tools laid out. Then halfway thru a drive, he notices my younger son (maybe 9 yrs old then), working edges, go down to the fresh pour to scoop some crete to fix a low edge.
He stops the pour to yell at his regular guys as to why my young son pays more attention to detail than his experienced staff.
15 yrs later that same son is on a job (he works masonry but there was a concrete slab they were doing). When some supervisor starts to question him about what he’s doing, and the concrete truck driver stops the supervisor and says ‘Dont you know who his dad is?’, and adds ‘Tristan (my son) has been on pours for years. Him and his brother poured most of Niverville (a small town 1200 home development) with his dads company.’
My son got a raise! Lol.
Major shoulder surgery forced me to sell out and retire. But as hard as the job was, there was no other way to live.
‘Concrete, it’s not just a job, it’s a way of life!’

this dude funny asf. the “ how much garbage “ kills me. 😭🤣
Ryan you guys are awesome!! I watch every video of your guys and it has inspired me to do concrete work with doing homework on your videos! Thanks Ryan and victory crew for all the knowledge
True professional. I would pay this guy extra . We need more heros like this.
Darryl probably going to quit within the summer. Tell em he’s helping.
Looked like he was trying his best tho. And u can definitely tell he hasnt been there long. Everybody has to learn eventually. Being shorthanded on the job doesnt help either
Look at the boys now! Getting the job done perfectly, despite being shorthanded.
That video brought back a lot of bad memories!! My heart go out to guys!! I am glad I am retired!! I have felt your pain . 45 years worth!!
Love your videos man big shout out to you and the guys all the way from Scotland

That was awesome watching you guys finish that. That was a lot of work, especially being shorthanded. Now I know why the concrete guys here in Phoenix work at night in the summer.
Your a great boss it seems. Work looks really good and done right. Brings back memories.
