i took to learning most from mr gartia's lessons because he's proud to do things right and doesn't "mess around" he's in the "get it done now and get it done right" business.
I FIND OUT THAT DESPITE HIS OBVIOUS OCCUPATION HAZARD - which may well come from a boss's orders (like a snowy roof) or an apprentice who causes a material slide (by refusing to listen or tie)
ROOFERS IN VA only get paid, "on average", less than amazon drivers. and it's hourly it's not a "because they aren't always scheduled" kinda averaging - and since roofs are like lawns you can't do it every day customers may be distant: IT MEANS AMAZON PAY is allot more than a roofer's pay

i seem to remember that before i had a truck (old as it is) and considered my own roofing business then or making allot of roofing calls to companies during CLINTON liar hire illegal alien economy (the jobs weren't advertised)
that among many reasons i didn't get into roofing
* jobs not advertised in va during clinton their hiring was ... done in different ways. infact schooling isn't required - so odd.
* allot of talk about increasingly dangerous roofs and worker deaths on these new "fancy roofs"
* CRAP PAY - low pay due to illegal alien hiring had already begun in roofing
* competition - already ?scores? more roofing companies in yellow pages (i had little idea many might be general contractors or what that might mean) than any consumer could ever call for quotes
* i had no truck at the time nothign i could do about that - and this appeared - despite i was inclined toward it - to be a bad decision
he doesn't mind the angle but i mind the abuse of endangering his (or my) life over "being fancy"
and then AOC i hope would be angry lazy amazon drivers would be paid the same hourly rate (it's not a job average - it's said hourly). it's simply BRUTALISTIC is the word for it.
((you then find out those democrat county exec part owner bitches are charging customers UP TO 5X what they are paying employees - plus thousands as company markup additional to that))
it's simply BRUTALISTIC
((supposedly there's a bump in pay for doing suicidal roofs - and these tend to get build - as i said - as a weaponization to prevent custoemrs from not hiring local companies - but it's not much not anything like it's worth))
emergency responders who have "specialist skills" (like helicoper rescue using ropes) make a killing compared to Gartia - apparently - even though day to day they are in no danger and not held by a single rope with "apprentices perhaps above them"
but AOC - she's helpign dems get jobs that make a killing compared to gartia which also (kept me outta business - per say - if we'd extrapolate that). isn't she.
