COASTAL CONSTRUCTION

A typical day at Coastal would consist of safety meetings in the start of the day followed by stretching out getting warmed up for 8 hours of hard work.Work would consist of rough framing wall siding drywall finish carpentry and what ever else curve ball comes your way that has to do with residential track home building.My duties varied from running framing crews of anywhere between 4-12 carpenters or doing finish work all by myself.Everyone has a good attitude about production and some are competitive.The hardest part of working as a union carpenter would be the pace and quality expected from you and to get up and do it day in and day out at a fast pace really takes a toll on your body and soul and also your loved ones.The most enjoyable part of this job would be the friends you make and the PAY friends are more important than money in my eyes and in this trade people will come and go and days will be long but when you have friends with you its allot easier and the days go by a little faster.

Saxony has three buildings condo , hotel , and subterranean parking structure and cultural center, each project had its own supervision and management staff, each project ran independently and coordinated properly. Owner was on project and made construction and design decisions quickly not to impact construction. This was tough urban project no storage or laydown area . This was tough civil project  putting a mass geotechnical  plug to stop the ocean from filling garage space this called a tremie slap five foot thick slap with sheet pile  to hold dry and maintain structural integrity. Above ground engineered bracing and foundation to support five story historical building and removing bottom two elevated slabs in there entireity while excavation was underway. Poured Tremie five foot thick underwater and dewatered two city blocks for parking with automatic garage system . This garage served hotel and cultural center above all computerized system

It is sad to have an experience like this. They hired you because you showed them that your knowledge is higher than theirs, their lack of engineering knowledge is huge, but the first quality you must show is: submission, then you will be accepted. Really fake company, talking all time about company’s values but in fact they are just waiting you being submissive. 
They show so beautiful and nice company’s facade that you will fall in love with them, sooner than later you will start feeling that you won’t have a place there because it is needed to be like them: to show a humble personality but in fact being sly, wily, slick. It is really difficult to explain and worse to understand if the experience has not been lived.

Start Work 7:00 am Sharp, Each person in our crew has to put up at least 30 drywall sheets per day. Sometimes we have to partner up to complete house quicker. Ive learned how to work and adapt with different partners according to how much they know, how quick they work and how efficient  they use their time. Our Foreman is a Hard worker who leads by example when teaching or running the  crew. We have an awesome workplace culture and enviorment we are a band of brothers tightly knitted as a family. the Hardest part of the day is coming off of lunch when you have to motivate yourself, Mind, body and attitude to start work again. The Best part of the day is hearing the finish bell ring knowing you get to go home to your family.

When I get to work I usually start with the morning rush. The customers come in and I get all orders for customers. After the morning rush we get trucks in and I unload and check in all orders. I put all information in the system after I check the products in and in between, I handle other orders. Then I get all the orders that I send out and get the bill of ladings together. I also see what I have to send out with other freight vendors. I get the orders ready through out the day as well as get customers orders. At the end of the day Iclean the warehouse and go home.

A typical work day would include checking the internal company website for any building uploads to model for the day. I have learned to always keep up with my computer modeling skills because one always needs to practice. The manager allowed for a lot of flexibility and provided me guidance when necessary. The hardest part of the job was figuriing out how a building looked like based on the project photos provided. What made the job so rewarding was when I got see my finished model and hear how appreciative my boss was when I sent him a file to edit.

I love working in new and unusual places but it was to know where yo was going and what was in store rather you find out at the last minute no preparation to follow up and to be prepared so you are working with minimal tool required for the job and it made it very hard to get the things you was doing in one shot, and the disappointment of having to get back to what you was doing took a lot of note writing and job to job was very stresssful

most of the the I gathered insurance information, permits for jobs on Long Island and the city. Collecting payments which sometimes could be difficult depending on the customer. scheduling and ordering deliveries of materials. Posting hours to jobs, materials, expenses in Quickbooks. Collecting hours from workers, creating excel spreadsheet for each payroll period, sending information to ADP and cutting checks
