They are all good, up until about 3 hours into the job. Then they get lazy, start slacking, mentally unstable etc. Its even worse when it was 95\* !! holy shit. It was like working with sloths. > > kids these days are afraid to wake up with some sore muscles and sweat their balls off. Even if they dont get a job mommy and daddy will take care of them. The way it is in clifton park/saratoga is retarded. Every young individual is spoiled to hell. Drives me nuts. > > have you ever seen the show deadliest catch? Those guys are prolly the hardest working people in this world. The shit they do is brutal. Last week one of the boats hired a new greenhorn. The guy in his interview said he always watched the show and when a greenhorn didnt make it he laughed and would say “put me in his position, I could do all of that”. He was bragging about how he was such a good hard worker. He was a furniture mover for 10 years or some shit. > > well 2 hours into the job, he had a mental break down and wanted to quit LOL I miss landscapeing so much… I love working for this one guy, he was a fucking prick he would ride your ass like no tommorow if you were even slacking for a microsecond, he would scrutinize over every detail, but you know what? You got done with work fast, you were done by 3PM if all you were doing was mowing, and you;d sti back at the shop at the end of the day, crack a few beers and he was like your best friend… Only reason i stopped working for him was well, i could only take so much of it… and I fucked up… I’ll admit it… I did not see this little “hill” as the grass was about 2 ft high, and I chopped the top right off of it, he told me to get itno the truck, when we got back i tried to help unload and then he goes OH SO NOW YOU WANT OT HELP? I was like wtf dude you told me to get the fuck in the truck and i was done for the day. Anyways i went and worked with another friend of the family who runs a landscapeing comapny, ALL of the other guys he had working for him were fucking lazy, this one kid would take like a 30 min break in between jobs smoke a blunt … We would do maybe 8 lawns by 7PM at night… I FUCKINGF HATED IT… I told my boss too. I was like look, i dont mean to be a little rat or a dick, but there is no way in fuck we shoudl be working till 7pm every night… We should be able to bang out AT LEAST 10-11 lawns by 4-5 o clock working at a steady pace… i cant be out here till 7 o clock wacking my pudd because these two are lazy fuck, he was so oblivious… i said fuck it and quit after shit dident change… finally 2 years later i saw him before winter, he goes you were right… he got rid of them both and now hes making more money bewcause he has guys that are banging lawns out and getting shit done --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/keeping-shift-employed-attn-hardworkers/258155)._
