I love ur vids man. Thank you for all this content. Im 21 and just started a job as a project engineer in a GC here in Cal. I work with RFis and submittals etc. You know the drill. Ur videos have helped me learn about all there is to being a contractor. Literally every video of yours is of relevance to me. I'm learning so much and that makes my job easier and I love the fact that I understand a lot of things of what Im doing and now have a much broader view of my job.
