    Prefer site work tools in the van 3.30pm ,job done no looking at jobs working out prices etc, been a bricklayer all my life, from 16 and now i am 62 ,worked overseas as well, worked for the last 2 years now as a bricklaying instructor in a prison😮😅,loved every minute of it.

      crime must pay...
      teaching criminals a trade... probably get out early too, starmer needs to hit his targets..
      having a qualification in bricklaying dont get you on site these days, you have to go through a stage of criminal activity to get that privilege... what a f joke.

      @IzzytheBricky yes I really do, I love the life of a bricklayer and am very enthusiastic still I think this rubs off on the guys I now work with, we learn the basics well, and eventually for those who want it, we do arch's twisted pillars , bulls eyes ,curved brickwork , battering brickwork using a battering plumb rule and spirit level etc etc, most of the lads love it , will they carry it on when released?? , a couple might, we have opened a door of opportunity

    Worked on site as a decorator, also worked for a mate who contracted to local council work, hated every minute of it but did about 3 years, so went back to my own work and ended up working and spraying Formula 1 race trailers, yes wallpapering inside lorries in working areas and debriefing rooms, really enjoyed the technical side of the work and got a few benefits of working for teams in the sport, few freebie tickets and pit passes got issued to me and my mates which was so much better than magnolia paint and council work where skirting boards came with their own carpet stuck to them from the last time they were painted, I was also my own boss again, lot to be said about that because like yourself I took a lot of pride in my work, not having a day off in over 15 years tells you how busy taking pride in your work can be as it sells itself

    I work as a mason in northern germany. I have never been on a site in that sense. Because the people that want the house come to us directly. Same with more industrial things. We are 22 masons and 4 apprentices. 6 People in the office. When someone wants to build a house they come directly to us. No big site with some giant company. Its really nice this way. Same with more industrial work. Concrete etc.

    I was honestly also tired of laying as many bricks as possible and as quickly as possible every day. I had lost the passion. That is why I took evening classes as a residential electrical engineer. I have now been working as an electrician for 7 years. This is also a good thing. A lot of variety and you have to think too. That way the hours go by very quickly. But I have a lot of respect for what you do. And I am also much older than you. I am 51 years old. My back has had a hard time in the past on the construction site.
