Yea we need some good law changes to allow cheaper worker permits. I just want them to be fingerprinted and background checked first. No felony? Ok then charge 30-40 bucks for a year worker permit.

Right now it takes about 4000+ to get a worker permit.

I understand the laws and think its good or else we might have another 9/11. I don't want that. None of those people deserved that. However, I agree the law should be tweaked a bit. I don't know how, but what you said sounded good.

These guys knew they were in here illegal and knew the consequences. The immigration was just doing their job. I have no problem with that. I just need guys who do this type of work and do it good. These guys I lost were awesome. Always there when they said they would be there and never changed their price. I have dealt with people who say, "I'll do it for this much, but when they start working on it, they say, well, I have to ask for more now because blah, blah, blah." That's when I say, read this signed contract with your signature on it.

I agree to a certain degree SBC Girl. I really do because I have family out there (Mexico) and they only want to better their lives. It hurts when I hear how they struggle.

However, we can't just let everyone in the U.S. There has to be some regulations.

Sorry to say but some of these laws SUX!

They see a Mexican and right away they call Immigration...
What about all those ugly MOFO's that work at USAA. Those are the ones that we need to send back where they came from...Maybe that way we would have more jobs In the United States.

What ugly MOFO's that work at USAA? I see ugly MOFO's, myself included, work all over San Antonio.

Or were you referring to the workers from India or other parts of the world? And with USAA, I would think they are here legally and if they are then more power to them. There are thousands of jobs for those who really want to work. Just open the help wanted ads.

I recently lost two guys because of deportation. I buy houses, fix them up, and sell them. The guy who installed carpet and the tile was deported like two weeks ago. The guy who installed the sheet rock was also deported yesterday. These guys were the best, but apparently didn't have papers. I had suspected, but never asked.

Neither of the two were working on my houses when the raid went down. I feel bad for them because they were really hard working and knew their stuff. I have to find guys who do this type of work and do it good.

Do any of you know of anyone that does this type of work and does it good?

I know a guy who lays tile... he does incredible work. Gorgeous, high quality, and he's fast.
He did the sun mosaic in the lobby of the community college in Corpus and he did the kitchen, patio and guesthouse at Tommy Lee Jone's house.
He has over 20+ yrs experiance.
PM me anbd I'll give you his name & phone #

I don't have a problem with that. My sister-in-law was just in the hospital due to kidney failure and my brother was more than happy that all her doctor's were from India because they were awesome.

I even told my wife that if I get admitted to the hospital don't hesitate to ask for a Doctor with a foreign last name because they know their stuff.

My parents doctors are from India and they love them.

But I can understand your frustration.

Drive downtown to that place .. you know... /wink (where all the migrant workers hang out). (jk*.. but ).

Try to go to Mexico and take a job there.....

And go without papers... See how they treat you without a visa....

A hell of a lot worse than we treat Mexican citizens that come over without doing the proper paperwork.

T Park

11-01-2005, 03:57 PM

I have legal mexican workers who we get through a broker in Mexico who does all the paperwork, and gets them temporary work visas from the US and Mexican GOVT, and takes a minimal fee for it.

They are the best workers Ive ever had, most reliable, BUT, I would never hire illegal workers.

The white trash that is down at the Salvation Army though is more worthless and totally drug riddled.

If you can't find a tile contractor in San Antonio, you haven't walked outside. :lol

Seriously, there are a lot of skilled tilesetters in SA. Go to the big tile distributors and ask for recommendations.

True dat. However, the guy I had did a great job and fast. He was there when he said he would be there and never asked for anything extra. In the beginning I hired a couple of guys who were recommended and they did a good job.

However, they would arrive at the house like at 10 when they said they would be there like @7:30. The others would throw extra fees that were crazy.

Well, yes and no. I was blessed that my house was $20,000. I invested just over $15,000 and flipped it. I had a good chunk on that house. It took awhile, but it was well worth it. I went from there and never looked back.

It was time consuming and labor intensive.

Maybe not, but I have other things to do during the day. When the going has gotten tough, I have had to put up sheet rock, paint, do landscaping, and etc. I don't think I'll try laying tile.

Flooring to a house is very important and a huge key when trying to sell the house.

This is in reference to SBCgirl's comment.

Doesn't matter where you train, you still have to pass the U.S. medical boards. Just like a U.S physician has to pass a state's medical boards to work in that state (unless you work for the government, then you don't have to licenced in the state you're working, just have a valid U.S. license).
