So, as the title states my superintendent comes off hard to understand exactly what he is trying to tell me. I feel as though if he gives a very general order leaving me in the blank. We had a discussion about how he was disappointed in my performance because I ask questions that I should know by now ( 6 months after I started on his job). He also told me to just grab the bull by the horns and go with it. I tried this approach but it still causes conflicts at times. For example I was supposed to clean this building before final inspection. I did a final sweeping the two weeks before but there was dust, wires, cigarette butts and other small things on the floor again. I proceed to sweep the floor again and he responds with " why are you sweeping the floor again? You already did that. No more sweeping. got it?" Another example is, I would be told to clear out the building pad after wall footings were installed and we are getting ready for precast. Well, the concrete guys have a ton of rebar and wood in this one spot they are still using. I feel like I have no idea what to do with this material because the site outside of the pad is loaded with mud and I don't think that would be the best thing to do. Eventually he ordered to put it over in this one spot but that was only because I was loading stuff up and haven't moved it yet.
Any advice to address this matter would be appreciated.
