Which plow did it best.

What happens here

A worker performs a 'knuckle test' by pushing his hand into the snow to estimate its depth, reporting approximately four inches of snow. The crew then discusses the scope of the operation, noting they have 36 schools to clear. Challenges such as equipment breakdowns (being 'down three pieces of equipment') and the late hour (Saturday night, 11:30 PM) are also mentioned, setting the context for the demanding work ahead.

Goal: Snow depth is assessed using a 'knuckle test' to determine the amount of snowfall, and the crew discusses the number of locations to be plowed and current equipment status.

Not bad for November. >> And it's our second time. Second time going out. >> Yeah, >> might be a good winner. How many schools are we doing now? >> 36. >> 36. >> And we're down three pieces of equipment.
