How to totally
undermine any semblance of a peer relationship that you might have tried to develop with the framers on your site: bring soup to the worksite.
I knew I'd crossed the line
the moment I emerged from the truck with the steaming pot of soup I'd heated up at my neighbour's house. It was a freezing cold day - minus fifteen - and we were still just
framing up the exterior… no windows in yet, and definitely no hydro or heat. We built a bonfire outside, and that worked to keep everyone's hands flexible, but when I got the
bright idea that I would miraculously appear with steaming hot soup to warm everyone's insides…. well…the shame, the shame.
