	Description:	All the traditional myths and misconceptions regarding construction workers are exploited to the Nth degree in this film for Clark Michigan tractor dozers. It basically revolves around two construction workers, their foreman and their contractor as they all sit in a diner drinking beer and talking shop. The following are but a few of the shots and scenes enlisted... 0' to 100'..........MS of a youngish waitress in a fluffy blue dress and a flimsy, sleeveless, low-cut yellow top. She cleans tables until an ornery older man in gray coveralls enters, sits @ a diner table and orders a beer. A fellow construction worker, younger but also wearing gray coveralls, enters, sits w/ other man, orders beer. They spout sentiments like "honey" and "doll" to the waitress inbetween glances and hard looks at her butt. CU's of them as they discuss tractor dozers and verbally dismantle the foreman when lo and behold the very man enters! He is a bald, older, portly man with an enormous behind (I'm not kidding, it's huge) and a stogie in his mouth. He joins them and they talk about work, management and the workers' viewpoints. 110' to 200'......montage of Clark Michigan tractor dozers in a variety of working situations as the foreman VO's each models' advantages and benefits.... the contractor joins them. He is a man in his thirties and is awfully dubbed (he hardly moves his lips yet somehow he has a grand radio announcer voice)... dark shots of dozers at work. 200' to 300'...... more tractors, more advantages, more descriptions... MS's of men in gray coveralls drinking beer and listening to the bosses. 300' to 400'.......more dozer shots on sunny days in various conditions... more MS's of men drinking beer 400' to 500'.......dozers working in muddy, sloppy, flat, wattery area 500' to 600'.......bladegrading and pushloading 600' to End.......more of same... the bosses depart, leaving the workers to drink and talk; the foreman gets up first and says, "I've got to get home to that child-bride of mine." (!).
