There seem to be a lot of colorful tower people.

When I had my company and got a large tower erection contract, i hired
two new guys ....one of them had worked on towers 10 years and was
very knowledgeable.
Few first tower builds , nada, no problems. One of the crews is
working in Uvalde, Texas. Get a call from foreman...this guy in his
30s is trying to pick up high school girls , the high school guys call
him a pervert, he gets angry and tries to fight several kids...
foreman yanks him into the van....calls me...i told Mario , take him
to hotel, have him pack up, buy him a bus ticket and give him $20.00
for food. Send me his hours and i will have check ready for him.
he goes all pissed off ...
Next day he goes by to pick up check...he is cussing at secretary...my
son happened to be there shipping some stuff to us and asks him to
leave....he tells my son that he is going to kick my ass when he sees
me...my son laughs at him...he comes toward my son...son kicked him in
shin, dropped him and threw him out.
The guy is outside yelling calling my son out...he went out....guy
walked away talking shit.
Never saw him or heard about him again.
He was making more money than he had ever made...great tower guy,
lousy attitude.

He had worked for about 3 months. Learned his job quickly. High
performer. But he started acting like a boss, chewing coworkers
ass etc. Damaged a vehicle and acted like it was no big deal.
Got a write up. Started having absentee issues.
Today his supervisor tried to administer some corrective action.
They guy said two things: “every one of these guys is a total
idiot” and when asked what things he could do to improve:
“nothing, can’t think of a single thing”. Copped an attitude for
about the 5th time. So the supervisor said he was done, someone
would give him a ride at the end of the shift. He started
throwing around the his lawyer was going to contacting us. He was
going to sue the company, sue the supervisor etc.
Then he came back to the supervisor and told him it was a racial
issue. I have no clue what race this guy is. Hair and beard is
black. If I had to guess, he was Italian. Most of my crew has
some shade of brown. I actually prefer that.
He was one of those guys that worked an average of 9 months at the
last 5 jobs he worked.
Dang, he could have been one of the good ones. Toxic employee
though. I value the lack of drama more than almost anything else.
