Shoutout to the old guy who bet me I couldn't hang 50 sheets in a day
He said it at the supply yard last month, and I took it as a challenge on a big residential job. We started at 6 AM with a full crew of three, using a lift on the main floor and just stilts upstairs. We finished the last screw at 4:30 PM, and the count was exactly 52 sheets. It wasn't about the money, it was about proving a point on workflow and hustle. Anyone else ever had a bet like that push them to a new personal best?

Ever wonder why old guys at the yard make bets like that?

Yeah, I get what Terry means about breaking up the day. It's probably just a way to stay sharp when you're doing the same thing for years. Makes the time go by a little easier.

Read somewhere it's about making boring work more fun.
