      Hahaha, I like your "Dig on" comment... Mr. Frank should put out some "swag" (hats & tees) with that wording and a logo...

    Nice dig Frank, always fun to have to dig pool shallow to to deep but then add rock !!!

    That is a tough hole to get right Frank, but if the customer is happy with your work, happy days !!!! Can't do much with the rock, think I would have been tempted to leave that one in place on the side.
    Could tell you were pleased to get this one finished with sir 👍💪💰

    That looks like Texas digging! I don't miss it a bit. As weird as it was at first, I love talking into the camera while I'm working. It makes it feel like I'm not by myself in the cab. Great hole by the way. I can't believe how neat it is even with all the rock. You are a fantastic operator.

    Is not hart to dig for a pool if you got the right machine to do it ! Other than that good job with the backhoe, I have been around too many backhoe operators and you the only one I have seeing running a backhoe properly 👍🏿

      I wondered if people bid on the job or charge by the hour. I saw a crew dig for new water line and they had to jack hammer all the way. And a guy that lives up by me bided on a hundred mile of fiber wore out every piece of equipment he had. He said it cost him his company and now it’s just him starting over but I thought he will probably b better off by his self instead of trying to be a big wig

    Strive for perfection, do as well as can! Failure is only a concept of your standards. If others find your work as unacceptable, and you did your best! It is not a failure. It is only their concept as to what they want. If you are not given the conditions to meet their standers, and they fail to see. Do not blame yourself. Just cash the check and move on!

    By the way have you ever gone to other job sites and looked at some of the stuff(work) they are doing lately.! Im not an operator but
    It isnt even in the same class. Im sure if anyone could put dirt back in a wall of a pool it'd be you tryin. Ha ha.
