Lip removal seems like steady work for you.

I sure do wish I knew some good plastic surgery jokes, right about now.

Not really a good pic, but lots of equipment loaded up for tomorrow.

Are those Ram 2500's? What engine?

The one in the foreground is a 2022 Ram 2500 with the 6.4L Hemi. It has 85k miles on it and I am considering trading it in for a Tradesman with the diesel.

The one in the background is a 2024 Ram 3500 with the 6.7L High Output Cummins.

First thing was lip removal.

Then we added 2 loads of material to the skinned area.

Then laser graded the skinned area.

I assume the "lip removed" area re-grows as grass over the subsequent weeks, and that only the pure-clay area remains clear?

That is correct. However, the bermuda grass will creep into the clay area fairly quickly, if not maintained on a regular schedule.

Do you deal with the head coach when getting hired, or does the school have somebody in charge of their field that hires you?

Most of the time it is the head coach. Sometimes it will be the school board. It sort of depends on who is paying for it. Sometimes it will be the school itself, sometimes the school board, and sometimes the booster club.
