Sometimes we forget just how special we are...
Not to long back, I met a nice lady... who was amazed at how often I would come home for lunch, or finish early. My explanations that I was simply making use of my work schedule -which was often determined by the customer, or the nature of the work- was not truly understood.
Fast forward to today, where I have been working all sorts of hours in the past week. Long days. Early starts. Late finishes. Weekends. Evening service calls.
Only now is this lady beginning to understand what it means to be a contractor! Or, for that matter, the nature of construction!
