I'm not sure you're talking to me, but actually it involves about ten hours a day of sitting in an office fielding calls from people most of which have a bug up their butt about something. In between that, I supervise the office staff, put together material lists, and order materials. We've done over 150 projects this year, all of which have come through my desk. Most of the time its pretty fast paced, and most people who've seen what I do tell me that they wouldn't like the stress of my job. I spent over 20 years working on construction sites, usually 60 hours a week. Lots of days, I find this tougher, but unfortunately I'm not healthy enough to go back to working like that any more, so, I guess the answer is no, there's not much time to stand around.
But again, my big issue with my co-worker is that he is using his position to cherry pick the construction projects that he wants for his crew for which he gets paid the full pay schedule for. I think that he makes pretty good money from that crew considering that some of his equipment is company owned and he doesn't pay much out for wages compared to what we're paying him. But, he's also collecting a full salary from our company for a job that he's not really doing. So he's making two pay cheques. Of course, maybe I'm just jealous because I didn't think of it first.
