If you work on building sites which other trade do you hate the most. For me it's joiners, yet to meet one who can build a straight wall. Useless fuckers!!

I was taught at college if you're on site and the scaffolders turn up, you're best of getting out of the way or off site.

Heard one too many horror stories where scaffold is concerned.

Is it not the law that every trade that makes what ever your trade fixes to are hopeless?

Electricians who leave half a mile of cable hanging out the wall just to fit a socket. Really no need for it, pain in the ass when you are trying to plaster the wall and a trip hazard if it is left dangling down the wall and trailing on the floor.

Plasterers who skin completely over back boxes.

Got to admit that I've always enjoyed their company at brew times. Brickies for done reason are up themselves.

Any trade that can't be arsed to think for themselves to overcome the everyday problems you get on site.

Sparkys have always been up themselves, think they are the most important trade onsite, turn up spread tools everywhere and get in other trade's way.

And mostly don't clear up their own mess, followed closely by, plumbers and gas engineer's.

Plasterers are messy fuckers but it's a messy trade and tend to be on their own when plastering happens anyway.

Painters are usually the easiest to get along with and a decent decorator is worth their weight in gold as get other trade's out of the shit with clever use of filler

Chippys are the most adaptable and always tend to be on the job right at the start and end and usually work with the most trade's and need to most knowledge.

Bricklayers are just knobs

Sparks because they've never heard of a brush or a bin

I'm a qualified Sparkie.

Also qualified plumber.

I plaster, tile and butcher wood.

I hope I don't piss too many off on site. I clean up after myself.

Sparks were the top of the trades in my day, sadly the one's coming through now having done a 6 month course in tech are fecking rubbish. Mind you so are most of the trades nowadays....

I do just about all the trades and have worked with most trades people on sites

I do the plumbing I also do the joinery work as well

if I damage the wall I plaster it

worst ones ive come across has been the ones so far up themselves due to qualifications that they hold, namely the newbies to the job not the time served ones

i don't have a problem with any particular trade onsite but i don't like the small number of tradesmen who nick stuff from other tradesmen ... a rare occurance but it does happen

I always make it known that if I catch anyone nicking my tools, that I will introduce their bollocks to my Estwing axe!!!

Not had anything taken for years.
