I watched him for a minute and had to take a break!
I watched him for a minute and had to take a break! That ain't no job for someone without a lot of experience. Put a kid alongside him and he won't load a fraction of the blocks, will break a bunch, and will almost have to be carried to his vehicle to leave. I have watched people like that a bunch of times, made tough jobs look easy.
Reminds me of a big ol' rawboned country boy I met. He was a rotating equipment specialist now but his family was in the pulp wood business. He was about 6'6" and maybe two-fifty or so with no fat. He said when he was younger he used to load an eighteen wheeler load of pulpwood by himself six days a week and think nothing of it. That's about 44000 pounds of short logs plus some have to be tossed pretty high trimming out a load. I looked him dead in the eye, "I wouldn't think much of doing it myself!" He wasn't a quick thinker so I rambled off and let him wrestle with that statement awhile.

I knew a pool player who took a job as a bricklayer and almost made it through one day.
True story.
