You can see from the lack of forethought of the machine exit, and the state of the machine itself, especially the counterweight, what type of outfit they are.

He got it out of the gate well enough,but to be fair its nothing more than any half decent driver could do.The difference being that most experienced operators wouldnt get thereselves into that situation in the first place.Also i must agree with Tommy,in my experience nearly all the operators ive worked take a pride in looking after there machine and wear it as a kind of badge of there skills to keep there machine in good nick.
