Just finished my 100th vinyl fence install in Boise

I mean, I never really kept count before, but my partner pointed it out when we closed the books on a big subdivision job. It made me think about how much faster I am now compared to my first few, maybe because I finally got a rhythm for setting posts in this rocky soil. Do you guys track your numbers, or is it just me?

Honestly I just track hours, not the exact number of jobs. Like with my route, I know it takes me about 3 hours to do the east side loop now, but I couldn't tell you how many packages that is. Getting a rhythm down is everything. That rocky soil sounds like a real pain, I bet the first few posts took forever.

Tracking hours instead of counting tasks is the smart move. Once you know how long a job takes, you can actually plan your day. For rocky soil, a digging bar is a total game changer to break it up before you use the post hole digger. Did you find any tricks to speed things up after those first few posts?
