After reading a few of your guys mower threads, I thought you might get a chuckle outta seeing my lawn mower.
Haven't mowed the grass in over a year, but it needed trimmed after the long rainy season we had this year.
Dodong got busy with a pair of scissors..
(He does want a bigger pair for next year)
Almost done now but looks like it will take him about a week total time. 150 peso a day X 6 days will be about $21 bucks..
I think I will do it again in about 6 months as it got too tall in some spots and it browns out in those spots after cutting.

Why not buy the guy one of these and become business partners?
Split the proceeds of whatever he mows 50-50.

Dayum, those look like office scissors. Btw, for the folks that don't know, the definition of a back hoe here is often ten guys and one shovel. Also, the other day, there was a section of the road being dug up in town. There was a big square hole with one guy using a pick axe. Crazy stuff man.

This was like a week off for Dodong.. easy work for him from what he is use too.
At 58 years old this man is a machine, and will do the work of a backhoe all day long! :seasix:
(but a bit slower)
Not to mention one hell of a.... "Tanduay Soldier" :D :datawiz:

Hardest worker I ever saw was a Filipino dude that worked at the family Hardware store. He knew everything and didn't stop working with no complaints. He was the highest paid employee for 2 years.
Then he mysteriously disappeared. :bilmem:
Got a call from the cops asking for Romeo(his name) and told them I haven't seen him for years. Cops came to the store and told us they were looking for him.
Apparently he would settle down somewhere with a broad for a couple years, leave her either pregnant or with child and leave with all her money.
He had kids all over the U.S and in Canada.
He was a cool dude.

I laugh because some of these fellas...and ladies are professional hustlers. If there's a scam, they know 'em all inside and out. As an example, there's many right now that are getting money sent to them by "friends" they've made online. :rofl::rofl::lol::lol:
