A piece of metal heats up in both.
One melts, the other activates an electromagnet disconnecting the line, like the melted metal.
Material wise, they both have the same parts, one just has more.

Gotta suspend some reality though. I get walking simulators are a thing, but to do a quest you would need to travel a couple full days by horse? And filling in that content too.

That’s… one designed around being able to travel in a car…

Just bring some ducttape and tape the beer to it.

Just use a random number and pretend you’re a listed company.

Covered car parks usually have some allowances, but as seen, it’ll still rust from the humidity regardless.

You kinda still need to protect them from the elements, they’re supposed to be covered to prevent water and dust egress.

ends up with exactly this kind of “six guys staring at a hole in the ground while one guy works” dynamic - because corporate only delegated one shovel for six people, to save money.
Nope.
Each one has their role, and can’t start till the one before is done. But it’s too difficult to coordinate and people don’t like sitting around at home not being paid. So they just pay everyone to stand around.
It’s why union jobs cost 10x as much as private, and do the exact same job.

Right, but they handle the full shift of their duties in that time, and get their REST after. They get no breaks.
Thank you, that’s a union job, makes my point quite well, other tradesman would be canned for doing that. They can go a full shift without breaks.

I think it’s unreasonable to call it “wasted”. Like telling a pro-athlete “if you’re not running the ball continuously for every minute of the game you’re wasting your potential”.
Marathon runners take no breaks. If you’re requireing constant breaks due to mental fatigue, like any other muscle training and work it.
How do you think tradesman handle working 8 hour shifts with only a 30 minute break? They’re constantly on their feet, being physical, they are also doing calculations, looking around at their surroundings in case something is wrong or going to happen.
So yes, it is in fact wasted.

It’s not a joke, there’s be studies done that prove it. Its closer to 50/50 iirc though.

I’ve seen unions in plants reinstate workers and remove machines because it reduced labor.

Your friend can be driving the vehicle, they know the vehicle sped, but not who was actually driving. So demerits aren’t issued.

The only one making a big deal out of anything is you.
You already had your answer from other comments at the point I replied
And yet you felt the need to open your mouth? Why? All you’ve done is make a fool of yourself.

Time isn’t the only factor, water may not be available, if it’s a colder place, you need to keep it heated all day while you work. Dry bonded concrete works, if you’re replacing all the posts, it doesn’t sound like it’s only because a few failed, because you would just replace those ones.
- Comment on She is a "working girl" after all 2 months ago:
For us it’s water access, and not every farmers fence needs concrete either.
- Comment on She is a "working girl" after all 2 months ago:
As someone who’s done the same, eh, you have the machine anyways, and maybe you live in a drier place? Because they more or less come out in a single chunk, or if not, soft enough that the auger won’t shirk at it.
We have pretty clay forward soil, so you can even just back fill and tamp it with the dirt you took out. Frost fucks with everything anyways.

If it takes less than an hour you’re doing pretty good for an hourly rate.

10 years of my life summed up in a phrase. We didn’t only do concrete, but my crew was the best at it so we had any of the jobs that came up.

You don’t pour concrete, you place it.

No, that would be a North American or Canadian. You always covered this yourself.

The whole world used that term, since the other countries are covered by other terms, or other encompassing terms like I explained already.
