Pakistanis doing the work that even Mexican refuse to do!
Cheaper than a machine.
Those aren’t 6, 180 pound men.
It’s called getting the job done. Reminded me of the railroad repair crew (all black men) aligning track the old fashioned way, by hand - almost a musical rhythm to it.
Now I know what a "Pakistani piledriver" is.
That’s Thailand. Probably around Bangkok. Buildings sink in the mud.
OSHA would love it..
Good example of the micro economic principle that labor and capital are interchangeable. In places like Pakistan where labor is cheap and the capital to buy a pile driver is very expensive you make do with labor. Besides a dancing workforce is a happy workforce. I wonder if a fat guy could demand higher pay for pile driver work?
Pakistan? Seems more like Thailand or Indonesia.
AWESOME. A testament to human ingenuity.
On a personal note I did a small project in India (Chandigarh not far from the Pakistani border) I needed to lift a heavy item off a truck and move it about 300 yards to the installation area. I talk to the foreman and he says “just wait here a minute and I will take care of it.”
A small army of Indian laborers with bamboo poles and pipes appear out of no where, pick up the pallet, and walk it down where it needs to go. I think he paid total of $20 for about 40 men.
How did we make it so far?
