I did have the gritted teeth experience of watching our "trained" chainsaw operator catch the asphalt with the point of the bar, while attempting to trim the butt of a tree for Christmas. 

While the idiot chargehand waved and gesticulated, "cut it there", with his unprotected fingers.

Which blunting then necessitated a round trip to the local Stihl dealer, because none of them could sharpen the chain, nor even have the wit to keep a spare, etc etc etc.

And no Council vehicle could apparently go anywhere unless at least carrying a co-pilot.

Also watched another idiot attempting a deepish cut, but round in a circle with a masonary saw.

And he could NOT  comprehend why the saw was fighting him!

 

Sorry but we have to come to terms,, that the country can't manage with out them sort of people ?? There is a lot of people out there in all fields of work that get paid good money to do a job they can't Do ,,,

They are the sort of dudes that would try " bump starting " a saw 😁

Well the idiot chargehand sagely agreed with the cunning-as-a-fox digger driver, when in answer to the question of disposing of the dug out subsoil from a play area construction job said,

"Simple, we will dig a hole and bury it"

Doh!
