 A:    Alright, ladies and gentlemen. We’ve been hired
       to build a deck on this here house, and turn this
        boring and drab lawn into a backyard oasis¹. There
        is one catch, though. We’ve only got one day to
       finish  this,  so  I’m  gonna  need  everyone  to  give
       one hundred and ten percent today.  It’s going to
        be  tough,  but  we’ve  got  a  great  team  here,  and
        I  know  that  together  we  can  tackle  this  project.
       That being said, let’s get to work!

 B:    That’s right. Now, remember, we’ve been over the
        plans, but we really need to make sure that every-
       thing is up to code. The home inspectors² here are
        pretty thorough,  so please make sure you follow
       the plans exactly.  And remember the carpenter’s
        rule of thumb: measure twice and cut once.

 A:    Okay, guys. Let’s  get  at  it. Bob! Pass  me  that
        hammer!  The nails won’t go in;  the wood is too
        hard. I think I’m gonna need the nail gun. That
       did it!
 C:     Do  me a favor and  help me  cut this  two-by-four,
       will ya?  Pass me the circular saw, and grab hold
       of the end of the board. Now help me drill some
        holes in it so we can place the bolts.

 B:     I think  you should  sand  the edges.  Look  at
       all these splinters, someone  could get hurt.
       Geez...you gotta take pride in your work!

 C:    Yeah,  you’re  right.  Pass  me  the  sander  and  I’ll
       take care of it.

 A:    Julia! Get over here with the level, measuring tape
       and that box of screws!

 C:    Oh, no! Look out below!
