Construction foreman
A construction foreman is the worker or tradesman who is in charge of a construction crew. This role is generally assumed by a senior worker.
Duties and functions
Normally the foreman is a construction worker with many years of experience in a particular trade who is charged with organizing the overall construction of a particular project for a particular contractor. Typically the foreman is a person with specialist knowledge of a given trade who has moved into the position and is now focused on an overall management of his trade on the job site. He or she is responsible for providing proper documentation to his workers so they can proceed with tasks. Not to be confused with a Project Manager, Project Supervisor, Superintendent, General Foreman, or a "Firstman".
A good foreman is said by many engineers to be the keystone of their projects.
Specifically, a foreman may train employees under his or her supervision, ensure appropriate use of equipment by employees, communicate progress on the project to a supervisor and maintain the employee schedule. Foremen may also arrange for materials to be at the construction site and evaluate plans for each construction job.

Plot: Harvard educated lawyer Lucy Kelson, following in the footsteps of her lawyer parents, uses her career for social activism. She hides any sense of femininity behind her work. George Wade is the suave public face of the Manhattan-based Wade Corporation, a development firm that Lucy routinely opposes and whose true head is George's profit-oriented brother, Howard Wade. George, who has a reputation as a lady's man, has had as his legal counsel a series of beautiful female lawyers with questionable credentials, they who have more primarily acted as his casual sex partners. Needing a real lawyer, he offers Lucy the job of his legal counsel on a chance meeting. Despite warnings from her parents in working for the "enemy", Lucy, who has no intention of being the latest in his bed partners, accepts the job as she feels she can do more good from the inside, and as George, as part of the job offer, promises not to demolish a community center in a heritage building as part of a development project near her childhood Coney Island home where her parents still live. Although Lucy is able to effect the type of change she wanted from this position, she finds she cannot deal with George's expectations of her, namely being his primary confidante and advisor at all hours of the day and night, mostly about issues she considers frivolous. As such, she gives her two weeks notice, although she promises to help George find her replacement. As Lucy begins to review resumes, George himself unilaterally decides to hire June Carver, a fellow Harvardite, but who seems to have her sights set on George as both a boss and personal partner. As June begins to replace Lucy in seemingly all aspects of George's life, Lucy begins to realize that she herself has fallen for George. However, Lucy's feelings for George and her attempts to re-ingratiate herself into George's life are placed into jeopardy when she learns of a Wade Corporation decision against her basic sensibilities.

Quotes:
Howard Wade: You need someone who can write a brief instead of removing yours.George Wade: [talking about Lucy's mother] Yes, she is terrifying. I thought she was going to kill me and feed me to the poor.
George Wade: I need your advice on one last thing, then I promise you will never hear from me again. You see, I've just delivered the first speech I've written entirely by myself since we met, and I think I may have blown it. I want to ask your thoughts. Okay? Then I will read it to you. I'd like to welcome everyone on this special day. Island Towers will bring glamour and prestige to the neighborhood and become part of Brooklyn's renaissance. And I'm very pleased and proud to be here. Unfortunately, there is one fly in the ointment. You see, I gave my word to someone that we wouldn't knock down this building behind me. And normally, and those of you who know me or were married to me can attest to this, my word wouldn't mean very much. So why does it this time? Well, partly because this building is an architectural gem and deserves to be landmarked and partly because people really do need a place to do senior's water ballet and CPR. Preferably not together. But mainly because this person, despite being unusually stubborn and unwilling to compromise and a very poor dresser, is... she's rather like the building she loves so much. A little rough around the edges but, when you look closely, absolutely beautiful. And the only one of her kind. And even though I've said cruel things and driven her away, she's become the voice in my head. And I can't seem to drown her out. And I don't want to drown her out. So, we are going to keep the community center. Because I gave my word to her and because we gave our word to the community. And I didn't sleep with June. That's not in the speech, that's just me letting you know that important fact. What do you think?::Lucy Kelson: I have to get back to work.::George Wade: Right. Right, yes. Sorry to disturb you. Congratulations, again, Polly. [leaves]::Lucy Kelson: Aside from the split infinitive that was somewhere in the middle, that speech was actually quite perfect, wasn't it?::Polly St. Clair: Yeah. I don't know what the hell you're still doing sitting here. And I don't even like him.::Lucy Kelson: [runs after George]
[talking about a leather belt]::George Wade: What do you think of this? Too ornate? Or do you think it's... beltacular.
George Wade: I own the hotel, and I live there. My life is very much like Monopoly.
June Carter: Do you know what I like even more than chess?::George Wade: Pokémon?
George Wade: I'm now poor. When I say I'm poor, I mean we may have to share a helicopter with another family.
Meryl Brooks: Come on, I've known you since Brownies, and the only time I ever saw you cry was when Bush won.::Lucy Kelson: Which one?::Meryl Brooks: Well, both of them.
George Wade: Before you came into my life I could make all kinds of decisions now I'm addicted I have to know what you think. What do you think?::[holds up cufflinks]::Lucy Kelson: I think your the most selfish human being on the planet.::George Wade: Well that's just silly. Have you met everybody on the planet?
Lucy Kelson: Please don't tell me you called me out of a wedding to pick out a suit.
