Meet Social Media's Most Famous Builder

Posted: Wednesday, June 19th, 2019

In this day and age of skinny oat milk frappamochachino's, 'bespoke' furniture and sourdough everywhere, it's easy to think you have to be posh to be on instagram. 

However, that's not true apparently

This has all been disproved by the account @justaconstructionguy. If you haven't heard of this bloke, he's a guy who rose to insta-fame (a way 'the youth' are describing lots of followers) gaining hundreds of thousands of followers sharing pictures of his outfit, photos of drinking a espressos and taking the mic at the internet.

He soon became a viral sensation. 

It all began when he asked his daughter what an influencer was. After she explained, his response set the precedent for what would become an hilarious venture.

 

 

The tweet, which shows an explanation of why he began this quest. It, was shared by a number of popular meme accounts on Instagram and catapulted into viral territory. He gained nearly 400,000 Instagram followers in a month. 

He hilariously mimics famous influencer poses, such as the classic ‘walking away from someone while holding my hand out’ picture. what a legend. 

We love this, and we don't want to spoil your fun. But, we've gotta be honest with you. 

So, it's a shame to admit that the whole thing was actually just a natty marketing.

As sad as it is a local coffee company dreamed up the idea during a recent brainstorming session.
