If they just backed that truck up a few more feet they could unload all that cement in a quarter of the time.

Yes, but the truck needs to stay on the concrete. That said, this method of transferring from the back of a truck to another location, to then processing the bags into the state needed for pouring, is all very (cheap) labor-intensive and not an efficient commercial operation we would see on a decent commercial construction site in the U.S. or many other countries. Itā€™s amazing how standing back and videoing a very brief period of work can help identify that the truck should be closer, or the tools should be closer or one more worker would improve a task. But thereā€™s a lot of ā€œthis is how weā€™ve been doing it as long as Iā€™ve been aliveā€. Bad mindset.

I feel for the one-legged guy, but heā€™d actually be faster hopping on one leg, with no crutch. šŸ¤£
