This video captures the raw emotion and pure exhaustion of a stressful concrete pour, shorthanded on a hot day. Every concrete guy has been there and it’s not fun. Share your stories down in the comments. I’m sure there are a ton on them.
The day we poured concrete started off like every other day. Until I got the exact text message that I didn’t want, which set everyone including myself in a very bad mood. Tempers were flying and exhaustion set in quick. It was one of those days where you just can’t drink enough water even if you try. We were all cramping up but we survived. As I state in the video, every concrete season is a war, every concrete pour is a battle. Unfortunately one of my workers lost his job today.

If I weren’t all the way in NYC, I’d love to be your paralegal once I graduate from Kingsborough Community. Sad that mans flaked on ya, especially given how sweet, understanding and accommodating you are. But sometimes you have to put your foot down, and I get it. If I’m not already subbed, ya got a new one from me.
Was doing a deck in the heat the on day the pump blew and it went all over the customer house
Stumbled across this channel on tik tok and became very interested. Love the content
110 on the roof in NC last week. Even your disclaimer doesn't stop the fact thinking 85 is hot is crazy lol
You know if you say that or in a text . You know they can get under Plymouth. He should say im let you go . Then not say that because know he will be still get pay .
Its been fun watching some of these older videos from the beginning of your YouTube venture! Your dedication to your grind is incredible and inspiring. I started my own business a year ago this wk and watching your videos has inspired me to keep grinding! Gooooood work!
Need that LMNT.
12:34
I remember a joke as I was coming up as a sparky, what do you call an old concrete guy… boss
Showing up early is on time, that's how tradesman do it
85 anywhere with high humidity is miserable no matter location.
1ft pins. Would change your life
Still watching this june 2025
I don't know if it's just me, but I like the old videos more.
How thick was this driveway
I wonder if Marcel watches this and thinks about 1 Million people watched him get fired lol I feel it was a great lesson for him.
“Now I’m just madâ€
Mad cause you probably had to actually work for a while customer didn’t even mention you just your team 🤣
You need to lose the charity driver positions, your breaking your real workers while guy just does the strike help wrong and you fall for it and shoo away some one you are paying that minute and multipling hours for stand around
The good ole days, long before the shed, the lot, Big ray, Francisco, eric. I've been watching since the beginning and this was a great memory. The short videos but had multiple days.
This dude smh the way u just be talking to people :/ just wack
Concrete it’s not a spectator sport.
I’m not joking. If you guys worked in North Dakota I would come out to help you guys. I’m only 15 but I have poured about 17 driveways in 5 years which is a lot because I can only work during the summer for my grandpa
I think it’s ridiculous for people not showing up and doing a whole bunch of no call no shows Because they don’t wanna work that’s a good way to lose a job
If I moved to the states from the UK would you employ me? I'm serious I'm 29 I have trowel skills, can work hard as he'll breaking out out concrete… I'm a wizard with a shovel… if I got out there, could you help me out getting on my feet? It'll be an investment. I see alot of similarities with myself and Eric. Hardworking, punctual and a good ear for listening. Give me a shot please.
You guys know nothing about heat try working at Arizona
i dont see you lifting your steel mesh, do you? If not, its a waste, there's no structural benefit added.
Good ole Marcel 😅
That underwear comment was pretty good..
85 Fahrenheit is 29 in Ontario and framing in 29 degrees Celsius is a nice day for us, love what you do but that’s a light day with us during summer time
I’ve been a residential framer for nearly 10 years, we come across loads of problems starting with foundation all the way up, you guys crush what ever you can in the time you have, much respect (from Canada)
I love watching this might be weird but I do the exact same with concrete for a living and I enjoy it but 85 degrees ain’t to bad we do it in 100 degrees in Arkansas
2024?!?
I like the drama, it's like the real house wives but construction workers
