Try being the trades guy we have dirty porta potties no sanitizer in them. 20 plus people on site. People going to work sick because they dont wanna say anything. Bosses dont care. My boss tried sending 2 guys who just got back from cuba to job sites and they got booted off the site. No one cares in construction. The bosses sit at the desk with no one around them while we go and work in a dangerous place already then throw in dirty bathrooms never cleaned or sanitized then throw the covid 19 in there. Hope the bosses enjoy all that money they making.
