Best wishes to Big Ray. I truly hope the job works out well for him this winter, but there is a selfish part of me that hopes he can take the warmer months to return to VOS. He really is a breath of fresh air and a super great guy to have on the team. Anyone that Ryan says he's enjoyed having around is worth their weight in gold.
@@matthew53690 A year after writing this comment, I couldn't agree with you more. Ryan seems to really enjoy having hime around, but I think he'd be far better kept around as a friend of Ryan's vs an employee. I agree with you regarding him costing Ryan big $ and not respecting Ryan's equipment/gear, etc. Not only these things, but he can never take responsibility when he DOES do things wrong, break things, lose things, etc. THAT to me, is as important as being careful with it in the first place!
Can't believe this season is about over. Always looking forward to the next video. Wishing Big Ray the best of luck at his new job. Gonna miss his big smile and positive attitude. Good job on the driveway and approach.
The intro holding the cat, then throwing the trash in the trash can immediately afterward is always a jump scare. lol Love the content keep it coming and enjoy your vacation!
I love the videos of you and the guys! The company and videos are so inspiring! It’s nice to see a boss that cares so much for his employees! Thank you for giving us almost daily uploads! Happy new year to the guys, the fam, and yourself! 🎉
@@tonym8765don’t be mean it’s not nice and you’re not gaining anything from it. Don’t say God and Jesus Name in Vain it’s a sin. God and Jesus Bless and Loves you all in Jesus Christ Holy Mighty and Powerful Name we all Pray Amen🙏❤️
I absolutely hate that I found this channel and then binge watched all of it and now I’m stuck waiting for new uploads! But it’s Friday, which IS my favorite for videos (and Monday and Wednesday!)
I did my patio about 15yrs ago. First concrete job ever but work in the trades. Came out great. Only thing I suggest is have a good broom. Lol. Good luck
Another great start to a Friday. Love the videos, and looking forward to some winter content. So much has happened this season, mainly the land. Ryan you are proof that dreams can come true. Again thank you for taking us along for the ride.
the neighbor, checking the driveway....I suspect he has a camera - perhaps Ring - on his door and saw the truck in his driveway. Thankfully, your trucks don't leak oil and mark their tracks! 🙂 Watching your team work, truly makes "doing concrete" look easy. But I know it isn't. Doing that curbing with a straight flat tool...seems "magic". Truly happy for Big Ray, and the company he's going to is fortunate to get him. I suspect they'll never let him get away. Blessings on your entire group for their winter jobs.
Thanks for giving out some help to the guy at 29:00, you never know what's going on in other peoples life, could be a scam as I'm sure you've doubted him but he could of also been truthful. Thanks for your big heart I hope my viewership somewhat helps into supporting you while you support people in need. Much love from Canada
@@Boomhauer333 Eric has a skill set that Ryan needs. And Eric isn’t a drug addict like a huge chunk of workers in the trades. So he’s a win. Not the best win but a win nonetheless.
@@saljablo2767 Not too long ago on Junior's live someone asked Ryan Jr how Eric was and since Junior is pure class act he responded with "Just watch his channel"
@@tonym8765see all the comments about Eric? They create engagement. Ryan makes money on YT from providing content people enjoy. Eric isn’t just a concrete finisher. He is an entertainment asset. So many people think he’s an idiot. He wouldn’t be where he is without knowing what he’s doing. The video highlights an entire work day, sometimes 2 or 3 days in one video. His mess ups are better content than just watching concrete go down. His crew is perfect.
Congrats on the new job Big Ray, Hopefully he will pop in from time to time on some videos to say Hey, or maybe get his own channel. He has proven himself this year. Took on a new job, and was willing to learn. Sure he made some mistakes, but just as that graphic of different pencils, one being new and sharp says, It is easy to look sharp when you haven't done any work.
@@cookiesxbl700 That is contradictory of what Ryan said in the video! Kind of job that people make a career of, and the way he talked, he might not be back next season. Pretty sure Ryan needs his truck by then.
All the best to Big Ray of Sunshine on his new job. I would love to see him back on the channel/Victory crew but have to respect his decision to do what's best for him and his family. Will definitely miss his smile and positive attitude. He's one of a kind.
Tino has always been a great worker. Never runs from hard work. He’s obviously just fighting addiction of some kind and is pretty unreliable but when he’s there he’s good
He doesn’t have an ego if anything eric is right Ryan gets mad when the guys complain about not eating but it was already 11 in the morning and they start at 630 the latest so they do deserve a break that’s almost 5 hours with no break I would be annoyed myself if anyone has an ego it’s Ryan the way he talks to his guys sometimes he goes a little too far and it doesn’t even notice it
Amazingly, I have been an Office Manager, Operations Director, and IT Manager for most of my 35+ year career, but I find this business, something I have never done, 100% fascinating and something I would love to do, especially for Ryan. Amazing crew and work!!
I could definitely see why the really boiled up Ryan . All Eric does is eat, eat and eat and Eric responded to Ryan by saying : I didn’t eat shi* Ryan .
Hi Ryan you are 100% correct about common sense being more valuable than gold . I have had a lot of friends in my 38 years of life and only about 5 % of friends have a little thing called common sense and I am proud to say I to have common sense
Great season !! I can't believe it is already over. You got a lot accomplished this year, you are great small business owner you seem to always make it work and you take careof your employees. I hope you keep the video's during the winter.
big fella, love the work mate keep on going strong from a fellow concreter across the sea we do it differently here in Australia. I'd love to give it a go victory style if i'm ever that way
Eric is getting too big for his little bridges. I swear I think he is trying to sabotage your business. Little Ray, Big Ray, Carlito, Tito, Francisco, & BIG RYAN LOL HAHA AMAZING JOB .
Ryan, big ray is honestly a great guy hes made some mistakes but hes been a great help this season and eric as well hes a great worker you have a fantastic crew, when i watch your videos it feels like im on the crew with you guys! Its awesome makes me feel like i could go outside and pour my own driveway 🤣 anyways keep up the great work.
I really like when you cut the radius joints that curve with the shape of the driveway....better than just straight joints that sometimes look funky in the end.
What’s going on with Eric ? What right does he have to disrespect Ryan like that, Ryan give him job leads, give him a paycheck every week. Still teaches the kid what to do even though Ericonly knows the basic
I feel like getting ride of Bugs was a bad idea. I feel like he was an amazing role model for the whole crew and without him I feel like everyone is kind of falling apart. but what do I know, I have never worked with concrete a day in my life. As for Ryan I have mad respect for you sir, for you to own a company and you still willing to work is absolutely amazing! Keep up the good work Ryan and best of luck going forward!
@@TakinBumpsNBlownScales I bunch of us who are in the trade would've quit too if we had to deal with Lazy E or we'd of taken him to a after work "drink" and calm that ego down real quick.
@@TakinBumpsNBlownScalesright but he was encouraging him to quit, and to be honest I think a little bit of PTO would have really helped Bugs out (If Ryan could afford it). It is sad to see him go but at the end of the day good people come and go.
Like there’s no other senior experienced guys there anymore. Just young keen guys but the steady hands are missing. It’s just Ryan and his ‘kids’ with Bugs there he almost acted as a foreman while Ryan is the boss boss.

Common sense is the best value you can teach your children at a young age. I got 4 little kids. I believe if you start teaching them common sense at a young age, they will grow up to do better things in life. Ryan definitely teaches his kids common sense.
@MMattesThat's where you're wrong. Intelligence isn't knowledge, which is what you are referring to. Intelligence is the ability to learn, to comprehend things. Basically, what most people refer to as being "smart." And I would also say that common sense falls into the intelligence category which can't be taught or learned. And your explanation of "common sense" is a very loose definition of it since it isn't the outcome most people would agree on, but I would also say that the definition of common sense is subjective and hard to define. The literal definition is "sound judgement in practical matters." But sound judgement can be subjective.
@@cjsc2316 I’m not party to who said what or what transpired all I am saying is there was a definite shift in Ryan’s mood which is out of character for him. He and Erics private conversations are no business of mine. His business is his business.
3x a week my mornings are watching the Victory crew do work. Thanks Ryan for the interesting videos. Man if you have lost Big Ray that's a big deal need another CDL driver big hit!
Fisherman's Friend or Cornhuskers pretty good for hard working hands.. Yes we love Big Ray and that sunshine of his. Hope he can come back.Sounds like Big Ray will be on my prayer with his new job .
Hey Ryan, great season and really proud of Big Ray, as you said yea he made a lot of mistakes but he was alway happy on the job site and one of those employees you hate to loose. you mentioned that you get cracked hands in the colder weather I'm not sure if it's available in the states but up in Canada I like to use O'Keeffe's Working Hands and working feet to keep my hand and feet from cracking and drying out.
29:14 Ryan your a great Guy for that help, Hope he pays it forward 💯💯And for Ray, Mann We all hope he makes a comeback, he’s been a big part of this crew despite the inexperience, Ray we are rooting for you Big Guy 💯❤️
Nice looking project. I have a couple of questions though. 1) Why, on this job did you not plastic off the pre-existing flat work,(garage, sidewalk) and 2) at the bottom of the driveway the "flair out" of the driveway is terminating behind the curb riser. I'm not sure how that is going to work out.
The garage they didn't pour so they were worried about newly poured concrete getting on there cause it was old. That's why he plastic the driveway later on cause it was newly poured at least that's what I understand it as
I was going to say a few shows back that Eric has been giving some jealous glares and looks like he’s going to be a backstabbing employee with his attitude.
I think he got bitter around the time Ryan stopped sending work his way and to his son instead. Work must have slowed down and he has to sell his equipment like his dump truck and his channel isn't doing too well either
telling guys to check jointer marks. 3 guys to fix a form. I can tell it's getting toward end of season. I deal with this on my landscaping crew. it's like everyone forgets what to do when they can see the end of season coming
You have such great luck with the folks at your Kwik Trip. I'm drawing a blank on the lady's name, but there was her and Scott a couple years ago and now you have Miss Z. I love her happy outlook. Such a nice lady! I can only imagine how sore your hands get being in the elements, etc. I have to tell you of a hand cream that is wonderful. It's not scented like blueberries or in a flowery bottle, haha, so many men I know are glad to use it. It's called Udderly Smooth. You can get it anywhere - Walmart, drug stores, etc. There is a non-greasy formula (not that I find any of them overly greasy) which I like. I hate feeling like my hands are coated in grease! Give it a try in your off season and I bet it will help. I agree with you wholeheartedly about how important it is to work on relationships and I tip my hat to you for seeing the value in a weekend getaway with your beautiful wife. I hope you had a fantastic time and a wonderful Christmas with your kiddos. I'm sure Santa came to each of them. Best wishes, Ryan. You and your family are in my prayers and I hope that 2024 (ugh!) is good to you, your family and your business and crew. Best wishes to the subscribers here too from a lady in Alberta, Canada! We'd love to see you come up here sometime! Heather🇨🇦
I liked little Ray but...I can't trust a guy who carries a pizza sideways.🤔😂

Bro right 😂
The work on the curb shows amazing skill - well done. Thank you for all the video's in 2023, looking forward to 2024 - Happy New Year to all!

@ well said friend. Very well said
Seeing Ramon smile throughout the season, makes me have a different perspective on how I walk around.
I love how you transition from holding Annie to dropping the trash in the can. Makes me laugh every time.
This gets me everytime
Me too.
first time i seen him do that i thought he spiked her down lol
always seems like he's thowing the cat in the trash, i laugh everytime lol
i was about to comment the same thing lol, one time he's got to slam a cat plushie into the trash to really mess with our heads
Can't believe this season is about over. Always looking forward to the next video. Wishing Big Ray the best of luck at his new job. Gonna miss his big smile and positive attitude. Good job on the driveway and approach.
You treat Eric very well. Not sure what you pay your team. However, bugs always seemed to be busy. Eric is no bugs.
And nobody made that comparison yet here you are

What a caring guy Ryan is, to give a stranger money for gas! God bless you Ryan

Remember when we only had a few hundred subs and now it’s almost half a million. Great job Ryan. Outstanding.
Concretes ordered!! After watching Ryan’s videos for about a year now I’m going to attempt to do my own small patio next summer
Better call an expert
Best way to learn is on your own
Seems pretty easy I’m sure I can do it no problem

I've been going back and watching all the videos I never watched before I found your channel. I watch them in the meantime until a new video comes out
You should think about getting a small doorway to the right of the shed as you walk in, that way you can keep the big door closed keeping it warm.
Keeping the guys off of the curing concrete on this pour was like trying to keep a stray dog off of freshly poured crete lol
I didn’t notice anything between them. I wish I could watch Ryan put him in his place lol. Ryan is a class act

Good job big ray, you seem like a great guy👍 hope that job goes good
Impeccable concrete work guys. I was in awe watching you do the curb
Next year is going to be the (mexican crew with bad moods.)😂 every morning just barely dragging in
In the time I been watching probably since your first video. I think you have the best crew yet for what we can see from here. Hope no one leaves!
Nice to watch someone else working while I'm on my Xmas holiday here in Auckland, New Zealand ...
Your patience Ryan is unbelievable. Good Work!
17:06 True Statement.
My work place we can’t eat until noon. It’s part of the job. We don’t even have breakfast.

As always, a great show. And it’s Friday, your favorite day. Tomorrow is my favorite day. And have a happy new year🎉
3x a week my mornings are watching the Victory crew do work. Thanks Ryan for the interesting videos. Man if you have lost Big Ray that's a big deal need another CDL driver big hit!
Fisherman's Friend or Cornhuskers pretty good for hard working hands.. Yes we love Big Ray and that sunshine of his. Hope he can come back.Sounds like Big Ray will be on my prayer with his new job .
I love sitting around watching Ryan do everything, I feel like I’m part of his crew just need a shovel to lean on.
Get one a lean on it
Good one🤣🤣🤣
I have to admit, when you yelled "no suit today?" to the neighbour, a little part of me hoped to hear him reply "not today!"
Finally Ryan sees it !
Been watching your videos for a little over a week now… love your content and you’re a great boss. Keep you the hard work. New subscriber here
Ryan handing out money to the guy at the gas station was awesome!
Some Victory to start the 3 day weekend off right! God blesss you Ryan and family, hope you had an amazing christmas.
Hey Ryan, great season and really proud of Big Ray, as you said yea he made a lot of mistakes but he was alway happy on the job site and one of those employees you hate to loose. you mentioned that you get cracked hands in the colder weather I'm not sure if it's available in the states but up in Canada I like to use O'Keeffe's Working Hands and working feet to keep my hand and feet from cracking and drying out.
29:14 Ryan your a great Guy for that help, Hope he pays it forward 💯💯And for Ray, Mann We all hope he makes a comeback, he’s been a big part of this crew despite the inexperience, Ray we are rooting for you Big Guy 💯❤️
Nice looking project. I have a couple of questions though. 1) Why, on this job did you not plastic off the pre-existing flat work,(garage, sidewalk) and 2) at the bottom of the driveway the "flair out" of the driveway is terminating behind the curb riser. I'm not sure how that is going to work out.
The garage they didn't pour so they were worried about newly poured concrete getting on there cause it was old. That's why he plastic the driveway later on cause it was newly poured at least that's what I understand it as
Been here from the very begging! Love your stuff man!
I was going to say a few shows back that Eric has been giving some jealous glares and looks like he’s going to be a backstabbing employee with his attitude.
I think he got bitter around the time Ryan stopped sending work his way and to his son instead.
Work must have slowed down and he has to sell his equipment like his dump truck and his channel isn't doing too well either
When you got your grandfather the amg. I cried lol. Best vlog to Date
telling guys to check jointer marks. 3 guys to fix a form. I can tell it's getting toward end of season. I deal with this on my landscaping crew. it's like everyone forgets what to do when they can see the end of season coming
You have such great luck with the folks at your Kwik Trip. I'm drawing a blank on the lady's name, but there was her and Scott a couple years ago and now you have Miss Z. I love her happy outlook. Such a nice lady!
I can only imagine how sore your hands get being in the elements, etc. I have to tell you of a hand cream that is wonderful. It's not scented like blueberries or in a flowery bottle, haha, so many men I know are glad to use it. It's called Udderly Smooth. You can get it anywhere - Walmart, drug stores, etc. There is a non-greasy formula (not that I find any of them overly greasy) which I like. I hate feeling like my hands are coated in grease! Give it a try in your off season and I bet it will help.
I agree with you wholeheartedly about how important it is to work on relationships and I tip my hat to you for seeing the value in a weekend getaway with your beautiful wife. I hope you had a fantastic time and a wonderful Christmas with your kiddos. I'm sure Santa came to each of them.
Best wishes, Ryan. You and your family are in my prayers and I hope that 2024 (ugh!) is good to you, your family and your business and crew. Best wishes to the subscribers here too from a lady in Alberta, Canada! We'd love to see you come up here sometime!
