In the late 80s me & the lads from Uni, who were no longer at Uni, rented an ex-council house in Thornton Heath. There was a pub up the road I’d go to with my girlfriend, The Bricklayers Arms (now flats ofc), that had an awesome jukebox and we’d always play ‘Emma’. It was the year of ‘Fast Car’

As 30 year old, imagine the burden of having to get to 80 in employment before you had any hope of owning your own home and having peace of mind? Bricklayers, roofers, bakers, surgeons, nurses, IT workers anyone is going to go slightly mad with that burden - even if those jobs still exist.

Another beautiful big bill (sic).

But don’t worry: there are no bricklayers.

5. Frederick Taylor (1911) was obsessed with efficiency and experiments like "what height should scaffold be so that bricklayers work faster?" He called it "scientific management" but it was more of an engineering. Taylorism is still used today in places like McDonalds.

Bricklayers' Pride
November 8, 2025 at 3:50 PM
Building a city is not the same as it being a city of immigrants. How about suggesting that the greatness of NYC is the rich history AND the contributions of blacks who helped build it, overcame slavery and joined the multitudes of immigrants who strengthen it. Blacks were more than bricklayers.
Immigrants didn't build NYC. Uncredited, enslaved Africans, and their descendants (Black people) did, not immigrants.

There is nothing "metaphorical" about that misrepresentation. The key distinction in being an immigrant is the voluntary nature.

Revisionist history.

This is an issue I’m a-ok with “let the market decide”. Aesthetics are subjective and there are lots of SFHs which aren’t subject to such regulations.

Or, import Iranian bricklayers.

Yep- friend of mine is an engineer and says that the rest of the world has zero hope of advancing electronics manufacturing to a level anywhere near China. Let alone have the skilled workforce. Australia is flatstrap training bricklayers let alone high tech tooling

Yeah, that makeup goes on with a bricklayers tool. Gross!

Not the point of the quoted thread, but I'd like to hear from more working-class voters like this please:
“A member of the bricklayers’ union lamented Walker’s cuts to public services: ’If we can’t help each other,’ he said, ’what are we, a pack of wolves—we eat the weakest one? It’s shameful.’”
Anyway Third Way tried to actually talk to voters once and it was a shit show (for them). www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Unless state built housing can use different bricklayers, electricians and water pipes than the private housing it’s the same thing.

In the end, a petition with more than 2,500 signatures, countless people attending city council and work sessions, offers from the bricklayers union to help restore & preserve them, and calls from our country commissioner state rep & state senator to collaborate & save them were not enough.

I know roofers, bricklayers, and carpenters whose bodies were just ruined by age 40.
“Humans can just go get manual labor jobs if desk jobs are repaired with AI” is both not going to suffice to provide enough jobs and is also going to result in massive societal anger because manual labor jobs often *are terrible*, which is why people have worked hard to avoid them for generations.
Even if society provided the food/shelter level needs for everyone, humans also need to perform useful work just for basic fulfillment. The vast majority of people cannot sit around all day letting AI and robots do everything.

(The definition of “useful work” here is malleable but still essential)
