Saw a WOMAC (well oiled machine) at buddy's home construction site

Something I've never seen before. Buddy is having an outdoor covered patio added on. Not a particularly complex project but it did encompass some pretty extensive demo and adding new roof lines to tie in with existing structure. They did an outstanding job making it appear as if it were part of the original design. Thes guys cam in early and worked late with a fairly large crew and they didn't slow down A BIT. completed in less than three days and it turned out beautiful.

What I had never seen before is they set up their own "kitchen" complete with a microwave and gas burner cooktop. Nobody left the site to go to lunch...they ate and cooked in shifts so the construction was continuous without the usual 1 1/2 hour lunch breaks away from the site. They were serious about getting the job done in short order.
