Just some thoughts, as we have a bit of construction going on in the backyard right now. Hope they help.

Lunch and water breaks are not optional. If you have some kind of concern as to the whereabouts of a crew member, text or call the contractor. Do not try to interrogate or harangue the rest of the crew. It won’t work, and it’s not your place.

It is always helpful to have several entrances/exits into the workspace. Different materials and tools may need to be transported in different ways. Make sure all of your gates, doors, and windows are functioning and accessible.

The phone usage of working adults is none of your business. If you have a problem with this, call or text your contractor. Communication with suppliers, other crews, and other worksites is vital to maintain a smooth workflow. Scheduling usually requires frequent adjustments.

The crew working on your project are professionals. Treat them as such. Their personal lives are strictly and entirely off-limits as topics of conversation. This is simple workplace etiquette.

Unless you’re in the industry, you work through a contractor. You pay the contractor. They hire the crew. If you have issues with anything, contact the contractor first and exclusively.

You can also be grit in the gears of the fascist machine. It matters.

CFPB saves billions for American consumers. It shuts down scams and predatory fees, and is cracking down on unfair medical debt collection. But greedy special interests want more money so their corrupt friend Elon Musk is trying to shut down CFPB. Unacceptable. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...
