If you are unhygienic (if you do not take a shower every morning and show up wearing clean clothes fresh and ready for work), this position is not a fit for you. (Yes, construction clothes often have some permanent "signs of the trades" like PL, or a little paint, etc, and that's okay. - Your clothes just can't look like they came out of a construction dumpster.)

I work on both both indoor and outdoor residential and commercial projects.
I spend my days doing extremely high quality construction work side by side with the people working on my projects.
