Rules of Supervision
During Phase 1 we learned of two rules of supervision (Civs; you may or may not have been party to this information, if not, it’s your lucky day).
I forget the order, but they are:
- “It doesn’t matter what you say, people will do whatever the f**k they want.” Phil Moffitt, 2016
- “Good to trust, better to check.” Fisho Fisher, 2016
Recently I was reminded of these valuable lessons.
Me: “Lads, I’ve got some tarpaulins for the dampers, can you take them up and see if you can fit them please? The eastbound damper will probably need tying down? Do you have any rope?”
Nacho the Labourer: “Yes, I think we have rope.”
Me: “OK good, do you have enough? Let me know if you need more and I’ll find some”.
Later I asked Nacho if he had completed the task. He said “Yes. And I am confident I got the right place”. Can’t argue.

Rule 3. Never trust anyone who’s parents named their child Nacho 😂😂😂
I think the general labourers were the worst on site for this kind of thing. Especially if there was a H&S check or some kind of permit involved, they would do anything to not carry out the task properly.
A labourer that listens and does a good job is worth their weight in gold – if you find one, keep them near!
That bloke needs to get his kit dirty!
Sorry Brad, not a lot of opportunity to get muddy when you are sat in a design office all day.
I think you know what I would call him.
