How many workers does it take to install cable?

The answer: Five. They arrived in a tiny pickup and went straight to work. Since I live in the boonies cable doesn't make it here so they used a satellite hookup. Thanks to the construction of my place they had to drill several holes and snake the cable through the walls. Work was done in 20 minutes. I went to get them money for a tip and grab a couple of Cokes... because, you know, people have a Coke and a smile. (Unlike deadly Pepsi.) Before I could get it to them they were gone.

A baseball cap with a towel on the head may look stupid but it's the common dress for those who work outside. Minimizing any exposure to the sun is the goal.
