Obviously he thought the Costco job was a full time job not 3 hr shifts for a couple months...
It shouldn't be hard for you to get some sort of summer work. As mentioned before just leave diplomas and maybe even construction management position off resume when applying.
Or if it is a seasonal position you are applying on make it clear you are looking for summer work because you are going back to school(can do this by word of mouth when dropping off resume or by putting it in an objective statement at the top of your resume). Many companies do like to help summer students out so that can help you find work.
Instead of looking on places like indeed or professional agencies etc where you would find the more professional positions look on places like kijiji. Word of mouth is huge too for these kinds of jobs and many places don't even advertise. I never applied on a job until I got into engineering, I always found my positions through people I knew showed up had a quick chat with owner/manager showed them my resume and walked out with a job. Things were perhaps a bit easier back then but I know lots of those smaller companies are still the same way if they could use help.
