    Everyone is so critical of Parker. Did he make mistakes in how he dealt with people? Yes....but he was just young and inexperienced. It takes many years to learn what his grandfather knew. Yes, its easy to say that he should have just listened to his grandfathers advice....and that is true....but also easier said than done. It just takes years of overseeing people to learn the skill and ability in how to effectively communicate and ultimately earn the respect of those you lead. At 26 years old I was put in a position of overseeing my first construction project. It was many years before I was able to oversee in a way that was effective.

      @Floyd1504 ....see that a lot in the comment section. Ive been where parker is. Today, in my late 40s and having managed hundreds of people....sometimes 100s at any given time....he just seems to be making his way through the nearly inevitable learning curve. Watch him today compared to two years ago and one can already begin to see his growth. Its tough to run a business. It seems easy for most on the outside looking in (this includes employees), but there are pressures that will never be understood until being the one holding such responsibilities. I left the corporate, project management, world many years ago. Since then I started a business and am continuing to progress. I cant imagine having the responsibility at parkers age. I made enough mistakes at a very early age just simply attempting to manage people...but add business owner on top of that is a pressure most cannot handle

    Hard to see rick and Parker part ways. With Ricks operating mindset and Parker’s leadership they mined more gold than the entire fleet. Parker is the boss and needs to continue what he’s doing whether it hurts his workers feelings or not. If you were paying people thousands of dollars and they kept slacking, breaking, and not listening to you wouldn’t you be pissed as a boss? People gotta grow some thick skin and soak it up and continue working. It’s not easy getting everything you want. you gotta work for it people. Best wishes for rick ness as a new mine boss for this fleet this upcoming season. Let’s go!

    Parker has a nose for being cocky and sarcastic and being to "bossy" sometimes. u can clearly see in later seasons that he is a little "powersick" sometimes. be the Boss u wanted to work for.
    he also have a tendency blaming others and even not listen to others opinions, thats not the Boss be, i bet deep down he know.
    treat people with respect and u will get it back, no riddle there.

    Sometime being an a**h is a good thing especially in Parker’s shoes..people take advantage kindness for weakness and nothing good will come out of it. Grandpa’s right in all the ways of respect but in order to become success in a Business you have to be Parker.. Look at him in 2020 worth $8 million more than him and his grandpa expect from the beginning.

    Parker still lacks experience leading a crew.

      He's getting there, though. He's improved over the years already.
