Slow isnt it......I havent done any side jobs for a while but that was by choice now that I want some there is none......Im suprised Im still working right now, Im a construction manager (superintendent) for Standard Pacific Homes and were building just very slow and Im one of the last handful of people left so my job is always on thin ice!!! this economy sucks if all these fawkbags didn't over inflate the price of homes and make it so every tom dick and harry oh sorry I mean jin jose and kamaljit could get a mortage they couldnt afford this shit wouldnt have had happened homes are not stocks people need to not treat them like a short term investment it only fucks the economy in the long run.

Good luck on the job tilton like I said Im down to do some side jobs together so If I get any I could use some good help, and I'll just split things with you for good measure so you'll make good money if I can round some up

dont believe everything you hear were building a shit load compared to everyone else,not like were building a lot but its a 5 house release about every month.... I just finished the Remington project in Rocklin and they let another guy go at Caspian Run and I took over there.

We got a 700million dollar investment from Matlin Patterson and now there majority stockholder so we have money to fall back on, the bankrupcy scare thing was over a year ago now and even then I doubt we would have went under

Re: whos hiring - Posted By bkizzle (bkizzle) on 4th Mar 09 at 5:48pm
 
bk... do you have you license?


negative but I have enough experience to get it just need to spend the money and take the test... I do tons of work but its gotta be from cool people, do you have a trade licence for you cab stuff? and I have a guy I may be able to write stuff under his licence. I have never had a problem but I usually only do business off word of mouth and all the people know that up front

Goodby dug one of the pools out here I think for the JMC guy that bought a home from us........

Re: whos hiring - Posted By bkizzle (bkizzle) on 4th Mar 09 at 6:51pm
The only reason Im starting to worry about stardard pacific is what just happened with john laing they just closed the doors and the company that owns them are just like Matlin Patterson a very wealthy company and they closed the doors even though they had the money theres just no profit to little right now because the cost of building is super high from all this inflation and land still cost bookoo dollars but you cant sell the house for shit when your done, I trip because I can see Mattlin Patterson shutting the doors fro a while until we can return to profitability, were selling in the mid 400's to mid 500's at my project and these homes should be selling for high 600's so were kinda giving them away just to move inventory and keep the ball rolling, like I said were doing better than most I just hope we keep rolling thru this down cycle, theres been talk of us buying a few of the smaller in trouble companys not to take over there operations but just to aquire land they own for pennys on the dollar so we can actually make a profit, all the land were building on now was purchased back in 03-04 so it cost big$$$$$ idk were almost 4 years into this down turn with no light at the end of the end of the tunnel still, so Im just happy that I still have a job!!!! things died overnight back in fall of 05' it was really weird we went from waiting list to standing inventory in weeks!!!! I hope it gets better soon I just started fire tech and emt school as a back up in case things do continue to go south for new home construction

Yeah he did the pool deck, for the one of the head framers for JMC, we sub our pool digging out and just haul the dirt, since we don't have a bobcat. We have a contract with John Laing and are still doing work for them, haven't heard of them closing shop. Same with Richmond American we just started doing more for them. But Our big dogs are JMC and Pulte Homes the two of them are going way strong!! Especially Pulte since they do the Del Webb communities which are all 55+ communities not hit as hard by the economy :thumbsup:

Re: whos hiring - Posted By bkizzle (bkizzle) on 4th Mar 09 at 7:32pm
thats him!!! I let goodby store some rock on my empty lot right next to my trailer cause I guess the people that dug the pool over dug it and it had to be filled in!!!

Re: whos hiring - Posted By T-CARP (admin) on 4th Mar 09 at 7:46pm
yup I hauled that there {Wink}

Re: whos hiring - Posted By BEAR (bear) on 4th Mar 09 at 8:51pm

the john laing thing is in the news and ther paper and talked about all over the place they filed for bankrupcy, whether or not they close down anytime soon is to be seen but it looks like the plan, the investment companys that own the corparation are wealthy but its its own enity so there just trying to bail out what they can and move on...I know pulte is doing ok Im suprised to hear about JMC ive heard some bad things about him I know people that work for a title company that does all there escrow crap....I worked for them for about 3 months back in 01' begenning of 02' right before I started my business and worked at line x bedliners, John M is a cheap bastard but hey if hes paying your bills who cares right!

Re: whos hiring - Posted By GOODBY (goodby) on 4th Mar 09 at 9:49pm
I didn't knoiw you wheeled. But John Laing closed there nor cal office and are trying to run without paying of course. But JMC just had 9 more releases, so I guess only time will tell. We all just need to network and keep eachother a float. I have my General B along with specialties in concrete, landscape, and excavation.

Re: whos hiring - Posted By jeremyhengl (jeremyhengl) on 4th Mar 09 at 10:23pm
well god damit some one needs some concrete moved use fucken Associated , our prices are so low rite now , just to let you guys know you can get a 28 meter boom for the same price as a line pump , and the smallest we own is a 32 meter so thats what they'll send {Wink} cough cough (Goodby) or any one else in the construction industry , i need more than two days aweek {Cry}

Get with me and I'll help spread the word I have tons of people asking about landscaping at work....need some cards of yours and stuff

Yeah I got addicted to wheeling when my Dad and I went in his criuser to the con 20 years ago grew up wanting one, my parents divorced pop sold the rig and didnt get to wheel again until I finally got my own toy a few years back then I started building and gathering parts for it and then had a bun in the oven so I sold it to Cole with all the parts he built it wheeled it smashed it and threw it away after a few seasons and then last year I finally put the money together to build a rig again, its cool cause my son digs it hes about to be 3 now and hes gonna be raised in the sport!!! I didnt know you wheeled either until you had a rig behind you on a trailer one day when you were doing the job for the JMC framer guy behind my job trailer....and then I seen you on here

Re: whos hiring - Posted By GOODBY (goodby) on 5th Mar 09 at 8:39am
That's crazy, just another example of how small the world really is. I had a my old rig built in 03 and I just got a new one done last month or so. My Dad has a TJ that he wheels when he's not to busy fishing. I will grab so cards and cruize over. What job are you at know. I will be at Ryland homes on Lone tree blvd. in Rocklin for the next couple of weeks.

Re: whos hiring - Posted By bkizzle (bkizzle) on 5th Mar 09 at 9:02am
same one trailer is next to that JMC framers house you did! its Caspian Run, we only have a few phases left out here.....

Re: whos hiring - Posted By k5chevyblazer (k5chevyblazer) on 5th Mar 09 at 9:12am
I like this local network idea. I do electric/automatic gates, and my family has a fence company. but it is damn hard to do fence in Sacto, labor is way too cheap. But I am very competitive on the automated side.

Re: whos hiring - Posted By bkizzle (bkizzle) on 5th Mar 09 at 9:32am
The Zombie Construction Network......hell the way things are going we need to look out for our local peeps to keep surviving thru all these crap ass economic times

Re: whos hiring - Posted By k5chevyblazer (k5chevyblazer) on 5th Mar 09 at 9:36am

Re: whos hiring - Posted By bkizzle (bkizzle) on 5th Mar 09 at 9:59am

Re: whos hiring - Posted By T-CARP (admin) on 5th Mar 09 at 12:37pm

Re: whos hiring - Posted By bkizzle (bkizzle) on 5th Mar 09 at 12:48pm
I like the sub title for the board travis true shit too, if you told obama he'd charge a per post tax and then give tax relief to people who dont even make money or pay taxes.......lol

Re: whos hiring - Posted By bkizzle (bkizzle) on 5th Mar 09 at 2:20pm

Re: whos hiring - Posted By bkizzle (bkizzle) on 6th Mar 09 at 11:14am

Associated use to when Telesis Const. did our slabs I think blackhawk may have used them also on my old job but CVC has there own pump, and they took over 2 phases ago

Re: whos hiring - Posted By jeremyhengl (jeremyhengl) on 6th Mar 09 at 11:29am

Re: whos hiring - Posted By BigRob (bigrob) on 6th Mar 09 at 10:38pm
Do you know Joe the old timer from Blackhawk? Thats my new future grandfather in-law {Cool} one cool dude!!

Re: whos hiring - Posted By bkizzle (bkizzle) on 7th Mar 09 at 9:47am
Yeah I know Joe he is one cool old dude, he's one of the only cool people at Blackhawk, the service guy Dave is a little girl, I forget the owners name but everytime something was wrong he would just try to butter you up take you to dinner, kings games, bar, etc etc, there not a bad contractor but I wouldnt call them my best.

Any laid off mechanics want to help me with a TPI install on my 350? let me know your rate.

Re: whos hiring - Posted By HOGAN (hogan) on 15th Sep 09 at 4:04pm

SD

Re: whos hiring - Posted By HOGAN (hogan) on 15th Sep 09 at 10:08pm
All the plugs from the harness will only plug into the proper sensor. Pretty straight forward, I have a guy that can tune it for you as well if needed. He's done several other board members tunes.

Re: whos hiring - Posted By k5chevyblazer (k5chevyblazer) on 15th Sep 09 at 10:24pm
I have never installed even an intake. i really just need someone to point what sensors go where. too bad I cant find a nice map of what goes where on the net. Never been an engine guy {Sad}

Re: whos hiring - Posted By Hogan (Hogan) on 16th Sep 09 at 11:24pm
get the manifold on and it's only a few sensors.
