Construction often ends up with the worst sorts of people. I have multiple friends and family who have worked in the business and they’ve dealt with people who would regularly no-show (not even call in sick), show up drunk, high on meth, and do all kinds of dangerous / stupid stuff including throwing heavy tools down from upper floors, walking around without paying attention (and falling off scaffolding etc).

My uncle also had to deal with mafia guys involved with construction unions.

    The ones on meth are some of the best workers though. Get them on a task and it goes by fast.

    If they’ve got ADHD. Then the meth is literally self-medicating them and allowing them to function. Non-ADHD people on meth are a different story.

    I completely agree. Ive worked with both types but i dont think the problematic ones are always non adhd. It has to deal with how much meth you consume, because one meth is fine for anyone. But five meths is to much for anyone.
