While the experience of pouring is something I do lack, I have instead opted to go the academic route to learn these trades. While the time there I’ve gain a lot of respect for the labor intensive work that is put into concrete and pouring a slab that one can be proud of. It takes real skill to finish concrete to the desired outcome and that is not something I will pretend I have, but I do have the ability to set forms and lay down aggregate before hand to help the pouring crew get along quicker. In my book of tips I constantly hear, I wrote that time is money and the best way to make money is by taking time with your work and craftsmanship, the work will speak for itself. I’ve also hear that calm is smooth and smooth is fast so I try to take that into account along with the time rule.
