  • Today's list of things I get to do:
    We have a gravel driveway build, and I am going to go through the process of how I cost my business, and bid jobs.
    The Eastonmade 22-28 is running slow, so we need to fix that, and I have a pile of logs to move so that I can get back to cutting and splitting firewood.

    When I was bidding pipefitter work I asked a guy to look over my bid and he asked me " is that the time it would take you or someone else" ?
    I had to up the hours 😂

      yes totally. You make an excellent point. When working by the hour, if you are uch better and faster than the standard, then you are actually penalized for being efficient. Great comment!

      Yeah, I should have just pulled from my tank at the shop, but I forgot about it before leaving. You just never know about a lot of these places these days. Too may horror stories. Thanks for watching and commenting!

    Truck says Not for Hire. What does that mean?

    • @DirtAndRocks
      @DirtAndRocks  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      it just means we haul for ourselves and do not act as a "for hire" carrier that transports goods other people own. Thanks!
