Bricklaying - I Almost Send Home My bricklayer James ,This Man Dont Listen 

thats awesome, ☺️ thank you

Yeh its hard work being a labourer who is used and abused also, mix push barrow dish the mix out, repeat, join, stack bricks here, wash the walls and windows, do this do that, and get spoken to like crap!

I’m glad someone has the respect for it. People hear bricklaying and just think lazy fat fucker just laying brick after brick making out like it’s easy and describe it as “mind numbing”. Sometimes when helping out the joiners I wonder if I chose the wrong trade😂

The real heroes are the laborers for the bricklayers 🤨 I had a bricklayer one time at the end of the day told me to clean his tools. Now keep in mind this guy was a Mexican and he usually only worked with Mexicans non-union labor and I'm a white dude union labor. I told him straight up I said that's not my fucking job I said you might get away with it with your scab laborers that you're used to having work for you but you can go clean your own f0cking tools. I got enough shit to fucking do . Next day he comes around bitching at me where's my mud. I said are you kidding me you have a labor on the scaffold with you handing you bricks striking your work and brushing your work. Get your own labor standing right next to you to get your mud. Needless to say this dude got fired within 2 weeks😂😂😂 I don't know how this dude got in the bricklayers Union but he definitely didn't last long. Anyway nice work man a little acid wash and everything will be sweet.

Bricklaying and Dry Stone Wall building are the two hardest jobs I’ve ever done.

Well I guess I'll reply again since my comment mysteriously disappeared. The real hero of bricklaying is the labor. This could be a horrible job depending on who you are working for that's for sure. Basically on the worst side of this the labor is setting up scaffolding mixing mud moving bricks back and forth. While most bricklayers sit there on the scaffolding waiting for their labors to hand something. Believe me I know I used to be one of these laborers. I actually had one bricklayer at the end of the day told me to clean his tools. I looked at this dude laughed my a$$ off and told him to f0cken clean your own f0cking shit you lazy f0cking reeeetard who can't even count to four. And a lot of these guys have their labors striking and brushing the work. That's the bricklayers job to do that part. Not all brick layers are like that though. You usually find these types of dudes in the Union of bricklayers and tuck pointers. It don't take but a day to get the skills going to throw mud down and set a brick. Anybody can be a bricklayer it's pretty much a very low skill demanding job. So yeah if you guys want to pray somebody for a good job praise the laborer. Cuz those are the guys that are getting the shit done. The bricklayer is just a mindless robot. How most of them can't even read a blueprint for new construction. Guess how many times I ran into that situation.

​@@thebigdezshow8971im a laborer and joining is piss easy, it sucks for us labourers who get used and abused while the bricklayers just lay and order us to do all the intensive Labor, go mix, push the barrow around the house dish mix out, mix again, dish it out, go join, stack bricks here, scrub the walls, mix, dish it out, grab this grab that, no not there over there are you dumb? Work faster i want to see you sweat! Meanwhile they are just laying and your drenched in sweat contemplating walking off cause your sick of being spoken to like shit. Moneys good I guess.

coming your way soon, thank you 😊

Thank you too

Thanks a lot 😊

Thanks a lot!

No worries mate, if im ever in the states I will labor for you for free to pick up some tips as I am a carpenter/joiner but love a bit of brick laying when it comes up, am shit at it but would love to get better at it, cheers @@1kbconstruction824

Thank you! Cheers!

Also, how many courses in between ties

Some jobs we use them if they provided by the client, Most of my jobs material provided by the clients, brick ties should spaced vertically and every 16” or 24”

Thanks!

In this scenario, it's a brick veneer. It may make the overall structure stronger but the roof does not sit on the masonry. They're hanging bricks off the side of the house

much appreciated 🙏🏾 ☺️

Canada Ontario

its coming

Thank you

Every province has its own. I’m in BC and we have Worker Compensation or WorkBC for short. He is in Ontario I think and our national safety thing is called CSA so we need “CSA” approved boots on the job-site by example not “Osha” approved.

It's almost impossible to find a laborer that will show up every day nevermind a bricklayer nobody wants to work, especially this time of the year. Good luck

@@richardstetson8221 Spot on.

😂😂😂😂 I have been looking for the opportunity to enter this industry if you need help yes there's people 😅

@edersoncorreia7217 come spring time you should have no problem finding a job have you seen all the guys Ryan has gone through? He makes a video where he is teaching a guy? Then he is gone by the next video

@@richardstetson8221 😂 No I haven't noticed that, my thoughts are they were not into it, that's why motivation is an important asset plus the willingness to learn.

🙌🏽✊🏽🙌🏽

no he dont,i always talk to him about that

i did not use a tricky title, We did have a dispute in the video where it didn't wants to fill the joint properly and we did have a fight over it, I just didn't want to point it out directly in the video for him to feel a type way ,you how how some people is

@@1kbconstruction824 'This man don't listen' would make him feel a 'type of way' anyway?? Look...i enjoy your vids so that's all that matters. Thanks Ryan

This is in North America. Charlie is in the UK. Different building codes. So how is Charlie going to show Ryan how it's done?

@@irvingfive7955 he could go back to uk at weekends with the amount of bricks Charlie can build it would cover a flight every 2 weeks

lol 😆😆🤣

​@@irvingfive7955because he'd show the how to lay properly because the quality of that brick work despicable it would never pass over here. I get that it's a different country but mate that can't be the standard of work over there

You are joking right😆😆

Because he don't want to use the slicker to fill the joint properly lol

@1kbconstruction824 well if it's your job he gotta do how you want it! That's just how it is

thats a good question 🤔

@@1kbconstruction824 I frame for a living in the city and it just blows my mind that people want to look live where you look our a window and 5’ away is your neighbors house. I’ve been doing it for 25 years now and it will never make sense. I drive 20-30 minutes home and have 20 acres to roam.

😆

Looked damn good to me

Thanks 👍

oh yeah lol you guys have it like that?

Did you see his brick line at 10.31 lol and then he yaps at James

Tapping bricks I think

He didn't want to feel the mortar giants properly with a slicker ,so we had a fught

@@1kbconstruction824yes that’s disrespectful of him

Beautiful work. I can’t believe people spend all that money just to live right next to their neighbor. It must be so they’re close to their job, which if it’s in the city and pays well is probably something pointless. What an upside down world.

@@dp1381what an upside down comment

Because it's not a running bond we're working with here,its a 3/4 bond

ahh cool my man! @@1kbconstruction824

Narrow brick, that is the bond that works out. Very common brick size in Ontario

Idiot
