RE: TIL : TODAY I LEARNED HOW TO OPERATE A BACKHOE

in #til7 years ago

It's great, isn't it? When I was a kid, I used to hang around the construction site when our ancestral house was being renovated. I used to sift sand, mix cement and balance across the support beams. But, I really gravitated to the backhoe when I set my sights on it. I was about 10 years old at the time, so I couldn't see very clearly but they let me play around with it, while heavily supervised, of course. They didn't want a kid to destroy months of hard work now. I was a bit uncoordinated at the time, but it's a great experience to have. I think everyone should try how to operate heavy machinery at least once in their life. Gives a whole new appreciation for laborers.

I prefer a Gundam :D
