What did you do at work today?

Wow. Quite a production! How many thousands of dollars is it going to end up costing these guys to raise the scale by a half a foot? And wouldn't it have been a lot cheaper for them to just excavate around the scale and lower the surrounding ground level, thus making it appear that the scale is higher? Could they have done that?

I can't figure out why they would want to raise the scale, but if you put 6" blooms on the approaches, don't you still have to pour new concrete on the approaches to the approaches?

I was wondering about that, maybe a water issue or they're pouring concrete and paving the whole area?
