This week,. 4-10th september 2023, was a busy week for me. Running out 70h, spread over 6 days. Total salary for me ends up with salary of canadian dollars 3 595,20. From norwegian (playdoh) currency. We have 100% overtime from 1530 to 7, of the hour we pump, 50% after 1530 on hours we dont bills the customers, repairs and such in the yard. We run addition on hoses, fixed extra equals to 1,5h after 12h of work, and about 1/5th of the hour pay in addition of hourly pay when pumping concrete. When doing an estimate, a yearly salary in norway will be around 134K cad.

Hi, I want to say I really enjoy your channel. I am a old pioneer in concrete pumping. I started with something you may have never heard of the Thompsen 640 lattice booms we had to put these together in the morning and break it down to travel home. I love your content on your channel how you take a person from the yard to the job site setting up doing the pour and going through the cleanup. You remind me of myself as I had a love for concrete pumping as well. At the time I gave it up I had around 25 years into it. My reason that I wanted to touch base with you is as much as I loved concrete pumping, I had to give it up because work was always very spotty very seldom could you have a full week of work. This was in San Diego back in 80s I had to give it up as my dad was always telling me you need to get a real job. But I would not listen because I loved it so much, I wish I could have made a good living at it, things would have been different as I left pumping and joined the carpenters where I then started to work steadier. I moved to the pacific northwest and tried pumping here and work was even slower I just shake my head and wish I could have worked with the economy of today. When I say pioneering, I mean that as when we would pull up on a job no one knew anything about pump designed concrete mixes. At the end of a pour after getting plugged 10 to 15 times I could not back the pump up as the pile of concrete was so high that you could not back the pump up. the last rigs that I ran was the Thompsen 2001 Whitman and finally the Schwing 42 meter. 28 and 36m Still to this day I still like to see the big machines pump It has come a long way from the 35 yard an hour pumps at best, when I started You are one of the best pump men, I have ever seen Now at 73 years of age I still follow pumping and have a 28m 36m 42m model pumps just like a kid. Keep up the great content and I have learned a lot but probably will never use it in this lifetime. I still get the concrete Pumping and Placing magazine thanks again John May Yes it was almost starving to death trying to do this for a living. OH, one more thing, every pump contractor were thieves. I had Dwain Perin of American Concrete Pumping tell me that if he could screw every operator out of his overtime, he could make a payment on one of his pumps at the end of the month. Every company would not pay you to work on the equipment they said it is your responsibility and that way you would work. Dwain said as I told him once that I did not even get a thank you for rebuilding the boom pipe and staying up all night for a 600-yard pour He said he has over 30 Fing machines going out of the yard every say and do you think I have the time to shake every man's hand? One thing that does kind of scar me is seeing one operator on these big pumps. What happens if something goes wrong? We were always supplied with as oiler.

That’s an amazing history and past!!! My father and uncle first got into concrete like back in the 70’s with some of the very early Thompson equipment also. I could not agree with you more in terms of having two operators on the bigger machines. There’s just so much going on with these things, especially now with what is required for a safe setup. I truly believe that we will need to start implementing a second operator on these big-booms, or no one is going to want to operate them (a situation which we are already seeing in our market here). Really appreciate you sharing your story here with us 🙏🙏🙏

I’ve heard Florida is one of the lowest paying states and not so coincidentally has some of the lowest pump rental rates. I’m assuming that the basic cost of living there must be accordingly low? Please keep in mind that we here are working with Canadian dollars and as such you can add basically 30% to the cost of everything…. except for housing, here in the Vancouver market, add 400% for that.

Also some places dont have many shop hours or any, but our guys do oil changes and repairs like hopper rebuilds vs mechanics doing the work and taking hours from the operator's.

The problem I have with the pumping market is being able to adjust pay directly to skill of an operator. I have zero issue paying for quality, but far to often I see the average or "10 year rookie" getting premium pay. In my area it's more of a company to company problem. But agitating to see.
@piotres7358 Жыл бұрын
Because it's hard work. 11 years working in the industry 5 as a driver 6 as an operator. And as a concrete truck driver, you are not interested in the conditions at the construction site, you only reverse and unload the goods, etc. And as an operator, you have to set the equipment safely, and usually the space is limited, and you are often the link between the construction site and the company, which means you have a whole pie on your head, not to mention that there are always situations like the pump is too short and you have to use hoses or improvise. Most drivers are lazy, so there are few who want to prove themselves as a pump operator. From experience, I will say that after 3 months, 90% of adepts throw the controller and prefer to turn the steering wheel.
@jessesloan9636 Жыл бұрын
@piotres7358 that's comparing pay between jobs, I'm meaning strictly the same job. Yes of course the more demanded of an individual the more the reward should be. But going strictly off seniority or years put in doesnt always mean experience and quality, and that's what the businesses and contractors want, someone competent that's motivated to do right by standards and turn profit.
@canadianconcretepumper1979 Жыл бұрын
This could not be more true. I’ve seen 10 year operators who weren’t worth $15 an hour and 5 year guys whom were worth $50. And the double-whammy of it all is that the more competent you are as an operator, the greasier the jobs you get because the no-minds are just simply incapable of doing them.

In the Netherlands we have union-negotiated wages for pumpers (and mixer drivers), 18 - 20 eu per hour, 3200-3400 per month; OT isn't paid out, but you can take it as time off whenever you want to. Social security, medical & pension are paid for by the company on top of your wages, but this goes for every worker here. Phone & CDL costs are also covered by company. CDL renewal is every 5 years, this includes 35 hours of mandatory training(EU rules) and medical check up.

Numbers out west here have been creeping up over the past couple of years, but we’re still behind where you guys are at. Not only in terms of wages, but also pump rental rates, which has always baffled me considering that Vancouver and Toronto share very similar costs of living and presumably costs of operating a business. West Coast is a bit of a funny/strange market. I think much of it has to do with the fact that we have easy access to equipment from our location. It will be interesting to see how the mandatory operator certification affects things once implemented in the new year here.

There’s pros and cons to working anywhere. There’s much to be said for enjoying going to work everyday, making enough to pay your bills, and having some leftover to put in the bank. I’ve seen many guys bounce around year after year chasing an extra buck or two an hour. I’d recommend to anyone just to find ling where you’re happy and is a good fit. Vancouver traffic absolutely SUCKS!!!! Thank god for automatic transmissions in some of these newer rigs. I would only ever recommend someone to go out on their own in this business if they are ready to put in the time not only pumping concrete, but also chasing bills and also doing repairs. It’s definitely not a case of missing out on easy money, no such thing here. Concrete pumping can be a gruelling business.

Quite honestly, most every pumping company I know of is hiring. Speaking personally: the most important thing we look for on a resume is references (previous bosses, high-school sports coaches, etc… the most important trait for success in this business is character. Nothing speaks to a persons character like strong references. List your references rated than the usual “references available upon request”. Anyone who’s confident on their last work:volunteer experience will be eager to share their references. If/when you get hired on: ask questions and be proactive rather than hanging back and waiting to be told what’s next. I can usually tell working the first day or two if someone is cutout for this business, it’s 95% attitude. If you can keep off your phone you’ll already be light years ahead of most the rest if todays available labour pool.

But here’s a ballpark answer: if you can keep it busy (which in our market means roughly $400K per year in gross revenue), you can expect to keep the roughly $120K which you’d otherwise be paying an operator to run it for you, plus 10% of the 400K gross number. So, $120K + $40K= 160K. This is just me calculating things based on what I know of our market. Other feel free to chime in here with real world numbers.

Our cost of living (especially here in Vancouver) is outrageous. Even at these wages, most of us are living paycheck to paycheck.

Wages look great on the surface, until you get out here and see what taxation rate, as well as overall cost of living are like.

Jesus loves you man ❤ Philippians 2:5-12 (NIV) In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death- even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. if you got any questions, feel free to ask about anything (even prayers)
