Eddie gives us a challenge for the coming week.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, a steel fabricator speaks! Sam Perossa is the Vice President of Ogeechee Steel and has been in the steel industry for over twenty years.   We believe that he has the ability to educate us on how to operate better in our respective fields. If you're a General Contractor, Architect, Engineer, or even another Steel Fabricator you'll find this conversation extremely helpful. We aim to create a feedback loop through episodes like this so everyone can benefit and get better! Questions include -   - What is the number one RFI you chase?  - What would you tell a structural engineer if you could give advice?

Decisions, decisions, decisions. How do we make the right one? How do we know the direction to go? Is there a right and wrong decision? We sit down and talk with Nathan Clark about choosing technologies that work. We learned about Nathan through LinkedIn where he shared a blog post he wrote about the philosophy behind decision making. We enjoyed reading it so much that we thought we would bring him on the show!

Frustration can eat you alive.  As Dad used to say, “Don’t let ‘em get your goat.”  Eddie shares that he has yet to be killed by any of the countless frustrations that have distracted him at various points over the years.  There’s always a way to figure something out. Very rarely will a single day’s frustration still be here in a couple weeks.  Allow your “That bothers me” threshold to grow as you gain experience.  This too shall pass. So let it pass.

When was the last time you took a step back and looked at the people you're working with or even hiring? 
In short - The mirror effect is when you hire people that remind you of yourself. This unconscious bias causes you to end up with a team that looks and acts exactly like you. Don't believe us? Take a look around at the people you're surrounded by, and who hired them. You'll most likely see a pattern.
