And sitting on some ladder framing, that way the sheetrocker says not my job and sheetrocks it in the wall cavity for it to be discovered decades later. Bonus points if you pee in it.

[@youcanfindrace]

My journeyman told me I wasnt an electrician a couple years ago when I told someone I was an electrician.. i never forgot that. I left demoed cable on the floor today.. does that mean I am an electrician now? 🥹

[@cranberriesdoodle1450]

Worked with a guy that would take every little bit of copper the electricians would leave scatter on the floor, he would take it home with him in his lunch cooler. I go to his house many years later for a BBQ and he says " Wanna see something cool?" He lifts the lid of a deep freezer in his garage and says "Every day I come home from work I dump my copper in here, when it's full and copper is real high I'm gonna scrap it!" It was about 1/2 full at the time and that's A LOT.

[@dk4366]

No GC or foreman wants an electrician charging man hours for clean up. They will make a carpenter or laborer do it.

The pipes laying right in the way is annoying but the way electricians will have a clean job site looking like it got hit by a tornado and the just leave is infuriating. Doesn't happen on the sites i work on anymore the big boss finally laid down the law. We have a crew of electricians we use now that are great all of them but before we started using them omfg dude. Almost punched one in the mouth one day because he was throwing a fit, like a full blown little tantrum because the sawzall was too loud im not even kidding.

Love that part, so... seriously, one of the generals we often sub-con for would prefer us not to bid for the added man-hours for cleaning as he sais he has site cleaners that work minum wage for that. It's really not a lot of man-hours for us to clean as we go though, because we just work over a cardboard box and let the box catch the mess... just a secod or two to move the box to the next node and maybe pick up a why is she or something that didn't make it in the box... but hey if the general doesn't wanna pay us to clean then fine, I can make a mess lol.
