    Nasty. Why don't they expose the life of a golfcourse's maintenance worker? Most superintendents don't do shit other than boss around and "supervise." Amazing to see some of them actually do some work.

      Superintendents pay their dues. They start from the bottom and work their way up. I give credit to my employees for busting their tails. A Superintendent is only as good as his employees.

      Someone's bitter. How about work hard and work your way up. Your one of those complaining workers when you see job board probably be fired multiple times because of attitude
