It is cool when I meet the occasional white people irl who are chill, I may end up in construction work and it seems the people I’ve meet who worked there are ok. A lot of it is just familiarity most likely and even the ones that don’t fully know Spanish aren’t annoyed when they hear it. I know that a low bar but I’ll take it
I worked construction my first summer out of high school. A lot of misogyny, sexism, and homophobia, but surprisingly little (if any) racism. I think people felt like we were “in the shit” together and everyone was capable at their jobs.
Although looking back, I’m pretty sure we had one group of contractors connected to organized crime who were doing no show jobs lmao
It was a pain in the ass dealing with them because we’d need to do something but only after they finished. Or they’d damage something that was just built and it would need to be fixed. They’d take like 4 hour lunches or fall asleep somewhere on the site. The rest of us were like “How the fuck did you guys even get hired, let alone form an entire company of this one type of guy?”
