Professionals Share Things About Their Jobs Obvious To Them, But News To Everyone Else
I worked for a general contractor for years, and if there’s one thing I can tell you with 100% certainty, it’s this: you don’t want to cheap out on hiring a GC. You truly get what you pay for. What looks simple on the surface almost never is, and cutting corners usually comes back to bite you later, often in more expensive ways.
Every profession has those kinds of truths. The stuff that’s obvious if you’re in it every day, but completely invisible to everyone else.
That’s what makes this Reddit thread so interesting. It’s full of those behind-the-scenes realities people only learn the hard way.
