What happens here

The narrator explains that 'open-ups' are typically 'easy money' because they only involve driving with the blade down, not constant raising and lowering. However, he recounts a difficult experience at a location called 'Crackhead Square' where people would intentionally park behind the plow truck, making it dangerous to back up and requiring constant vigilance. Driving with the blade consistently down on the ground also causes rapid wear on the plow's metal edge.

Goal: Understand the efficiencies and risks associated with 'open-up' plowing.
