PRO TIP

SUCCESS IN THE WORKPLACE:
Time is Money

Ben Franklin, a famous historical figure, once said "time is money". This means that every moment we waste is like losing a little bit of money. Being productive and using your time wisely in the workplace is important. By being productive, you can get more done, be more efficient, and help the contractor make more money. It's important to be professional and use your time wisely in order to show that you value your time and the time of others. This helps the contractor succeed and is a key part of being professional.

 

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

The Scenario:

You are a bricklayer working on a building site where a new apartment complex is being built. Your team is responsible for making the brick walls for one of the buildings. You've been working for a while and are halfway done with the wall when your coworker notices a mistake. Some bricks need to be taken apart and redone.

What would you do in this situation?
Select an answer below to learn more.

The right answer is C) Work with your coworker to quickly fix the mistake and get back on track. Correcting the mistake as soon as possible will save time and money, as more mistakes or issues can make the problem worse and delay the job. As Ben Franklin said, "time is money," so every minute spent fixing a mistake is a loss of money for the contractor and a negative reflection on the union's reputation.
