Great video! very informative. In NYC I've seen many superintendents out of their role. You have trades people and their supervisors expecting the Super to snap chalk lines and do layouts, lol. This unfortunately happens today especially when the GC/developer goes with the cheapest bid. Another thing, safety is paramount and when there's a safety manager on-site the super wants nothing to do with safety even when they are told of safety concerns. I could go on and on but its dog eat dog and people throwing co-workers under the bus. There's even supers driving telehandlers and forklifts, lol.

I just ordered all three books of Jason’s. They arrive tomorrow and I can’t wait to program myself with this useful data. I’m a construction superintendent now. New to the role. I started out as a structural welder in NYC. Then I went to Hostos Community College and City College for my bach. Degree in Civil Engineering and then University Of Maryland for my Construction Management. Being a welder to start, I’m still learning as a superintendent, not to do the work for my tradesmen. I’m a hardworker and my thing is “get the job done by any means necessary”. So when I see the guys lacking in a certain area and there’s a deadline we have to beat, I always find myself getting my hands dirty. I guess I do this to show the guys that we are all in this together and I don’t mind stepping down once in the blue to do the dirty work with them. To me, it’s being a great leader. And the guys love and respect that. I mean, it works for me, but I definitely understand what Jason is saying here and I definitely want to find away to get more production out of my guys without me having to step down showing that I’m in this with them. I’m learning so much from Jason. Great guy.

I find your videos great and educational. I'm going to be heading into a superintendent position in the near future. I'm a bit nervous. Would it be possible for you to create playlists based on the different managerial positions? Thanks for making these videos! They have helped me so much.

Yeah, same here (carpenter) I've run small jobs with help (project manager did most of the paperwork last job) I'm way out of my element. I'll get the hang of it, and so will you. This video did a good break down of do's and don'ts

@marke4576 9 месяцев назад

I got hired as a super last year. The company had no structure or training. They put me on 4 jobs that had started but were never planned out and were already failing due to years of bad management and lack of planning. All ive been doing for 8 months is running around putting out fires started years ago. Its crazy stressful and Im actually really good at putting out fires. And i have helped save multiple projects. So to say supers shouldn't be putting out fires is kinda crazy. Who should be fixing the crap that others created? Or am i doing a completely different job than a super.

@jasonwilliamschroeder 9 месяцев назад

There is nothing wrong with fixing a fire with pausing, stability, and prevention. I had to do that until I told the company I would not anymore. I set a boundary so I would not become a part of masking the root cause and perpetuating the problem. My comment is directed more toward fire fighter arsonists. The fact is that most supers that fight fires only like to fight fires. And that’s why they start them themselves-because they get a feeling of significance from it. I am assuming you are a stabilizer not a firefighter arsonist.
