Installation of a Window - Union Style

I needed to install a double window, so I called for a couple of "experts" to help out. After setting up a scaffolding, I was able to remover the old window. Okay, so it's not the correct picture, close enough for union work.


It's easier than it looks to set up the scaffolding.

Look, you even see one of Chris' quilts

In this next picture you can see the project foreman, Jim Bowler, and the project worker's union steward, Shawn Allard, looking over the work site before the installation can begin.

Here, Jim and Shawn are seen negotiating the particulars about the job before the installation begins. Job safety and task responsibility are two examples which have to be ironed out, but most importantly - when are the break times.

After two hours of discussions, the two have finally come to a complete agreement so it's time to start the installation; except it's time for a break.

Job is complete, can't use it though, the Window Operator union is on strike.
