    It’s amazing how methodical Chris is when scooping dirt. If I hit the ‘advance 10 seconds’ button on TH-cam right when his scoop moves toward the truck, the next frame shown is him making another scoop. You can do this several times in a row and he’s just scooping over and over again. He is so efficient at moving dirt. It’s no wonder he gets the job done quickly.

    You really are a master at time management. As a young man, I underestimated how much you can get done if you consistently take advantage of every little pocket of time you have. A great example is refueling your equipment at the end of the day and putting the truck bed up so you don't have to dump water when you return. It all adds up. Young people in any field could learn a lot by watching your professionalism.
