Put four boilermakers on the same job and one thing is guaranteed: the work will get done, but not before everyone shares four different opinions on the best way to do it.
These guys work together so often that they have developed their own communication system, consisting mostly of pointing, nodding, grunting, and saying, “You know what I mean.”
One brings the tools, one brings the experience, one brings the backup plan, and the fourth brings the story about how they did the exact same job in 1998—only harder, faster, and in worse weather.
Four boilermakers, one crew, countless opinions, and somehow, the equipment still ends up looking better than when they found it.
