Life on the farm

Construction contractors, much like every other contractor usually leave a mess behind.
Pipeline people will pickup the rocks and leave a road like they found it. Unless you ask them to leave them.

They did for the last pipeline here. They cut our fiber cable and admitted they f'd up. That was a first. Then they gave me and my splicer a team of Mexicans and a 330 cat to dig it up and fix it. One of the contractors told me they were expecting a $50,000 bill. The most the accountant could pad was about $6500 since it was just the two of us. The pockets were deep in that one.

I trust they are paying you well for all this.

I wouldn't say well, but yes, they did pay to mess up the farm. But, so far think they are doing a pretty good job on their method.
