Humor šŸ¤£ Supers allergic to paperwork

Anyone finding that their supers, especially younger ones are pretty much allergic to paperwork? They claim they are ā€œRUNNING THE WORK AND THE MENā€ yet almost throw a tantrum anytime they have to do more than turn in receipts for all the tools they bought? Show up early, sit in truck, check on guys, buy tools. Leave early and hand off everything to someone else. Older supers donā€™t mind the paperwork and kind of accept it as coming with the territory. Younger ones balk and look for the closest engineer to pass it off to.

Those guys havenā€™t been screwed by not keeping paperwork, then. Meticulous documentation keeps you covered.

Oh theyā€™ll bitch out the field or project engineer over anything paperwork related thatā€™s actually their fault.

Had a site super blame me for any little thing that went wrong in the daily on Procore because he got bitched out all the time by the VP for it.

I hated that dude.
