Just a quote I heard today at Southern Cross station (formerly Spencer Street station) by a construction worker talking to another construction worker.
"They say it's gonna be 34 degrees tomorrow... but I reckon it'll push 35."
Oh my god. That's the most daring and risque estimation ever. You reckon it might get close to a single degree higher?!
This is why construction workers are construction workers.

hahah he must have said 45, eventhough it would be more unrealistic it would make a lot more sense.

Nope. Definately said 35. I heard him clear as day.
Most pointless thing I've ever heard.

That's a lot LESS pointless as far as conversations go.

lol so just because they are construction workers they have no money?
wat helped to get to that conclusion? laboring is actually paid pretty well. Much better than your average retail job. If i was earning $25 an hour i wouldnt be complaining

Yeah, I didn't know why his kid was eating dirt for breakfast. I just ignored the comment.
Labouring would be ok, if you were that way inclined. I for one, would never trust myself to build anything that could collapse on me.

Lol.. well the idea of 'building' something generally means that you should do it good enough that it doesnt fall down =D

Generally, yes.
But this is ME I'm talking about.
I'm useless at creating things unless it's something involving words and words alone.
