action
The construction workers Kalle, Jochen and Kümmel work for their boss Gerda Wiesenkamp on a construction site. Since the three of them always have other things on their minds than work, conflicts with their boss are inevitable. They don't take building regulations too seriously, according to the motto What doesn't fit is made to fit . They are joined by Oppa Funke, who has long since retired, but is constantly looking for a job himself. The men also receive regular visits from Jochen's daughter Martina, who turns the men's heads.
Characters
Karl-Heinz 'Kalle' Langmann
Kalle is a construction worker with body and soul. As a choleric , he is constantly mixing up the construction site and his colleagues. With his boundless self-confidence, he even throws himself at his boss Gerda.
Jochen Kowalski
Jochen is the foreman on the construction site and is therefore responsible for the team. His ability to not make decisions inevitably creates problems. Further problems arise from the fact that his daughter "Engelchen" Martina has meanwhile grown up. Not easy for a single father.
Mehmet 'Caraway' Izlut
In contrast to Kalle and Jochen, Mehmet is a calm and level-headed contemporary. As a “second” generation Turk, he has both cultures in his blood. Mehmet is the troop's magazine. His activity is limited to a half-full tool case and the jackhammer.
Hans-Wilhelm 'Oppa' Funke
Oppa is completely hard of hearing, which means that they only hear what they want to hear. He has long since retired, but that doesn't stop him from making the construction site unsafe.
Gerda Wiesenkamp
Gerda is the boss of the construction crew and also keeps the boys pretty busy.
Martina Kowalski
Jochen's daughter Martina is a pretty blonde who knows exactly how to wrap men around her finger. That works for her father too.
