An employee that works for a construction firm or general contractor that prices projects and tries to make the company as much
money as possible. This requires lots of lying to subcontractors and giving away other numbers in order to have them lower their costs so you can screw them in the ass while you make your company more
money. The
job also requires you to count every nail, doorknob, electrical outlet and tampon despenser (also known as a Sanitary Napkin Despenser) in a building. Throughout the day you will degrade architects left and right becuase they don'
t even know how to wipe their own asses. You will go
home and fall aspleep with numbers flying around in your head and you will wake up and write down notes like "Remember to include damproofing in the elevator pit" in your
sleep. Most people can't handle the
job and either end up suicidal or fired. Those that stick around end up making decent
money and look foward to rediculing architects.
Example 1-
Architect: "
Derp, I think I forgot to include the second floor of the building in my drawings...I was too busy getting my Chevy Volt to run on plant by product. Looks like I'
ll have to issue an adendum and make everyone work all night since the bid is due tomorrow,
derp."
Estimator: "Well, you also forgot to include the roof drawings and the roof specifications you fucking
tard...did you actually go to school or did you become brain damaged after you graduated."
Example 2:
The estimator twisted and turned in his
sleep while visions of floor base and steel grating spun around in his head. "Was the foundation big enough to fit the grating?" he thought in his
sleep then woke up sweating and wrote down some notes.
