and tear down the scaffold. It was my job to make sure that everything was up to
code and safe upon completion of each job. I would also collect payment from
various clients. Working in the scaffolding industry has allowed me to work on
hundreds of construction sites and see the various ways that structures are built
and how the job site is run.
