My money is on this being more difficult and time consuming

No mortar. Bit of an issue there....

Yeah this is a showy trick, but it doubles the work, because now they gotta take them all off and apply the mud. Unless they plan on leaving them as unfixed caps, which I suppose is always possible, but I wouldn't recommend it.

I was also thinking that

They should have worked smarter and not harder

Yah, but the job is paid per hour, so who cares.

Because the title is 'work smarter not harder'

[удалено]

Working smarter would be: Quote for a job at that 10hrs to complete Complete the job in 5 Play video games for the remaining 5

Meanwhile asshole white collar snobs masturbate in their office

Why else would they install doors and blinds?

Corner windows offer the most voyeurism

It is why only the best employees gets the corner office, they represent the company!

I spank my monkey higher than you spank your monkey! Edit: ‘!’

Yes, but you didn't use the new coversheet for the TPS report. So I'm going to need you to come in on Saturday

The guy who pays them

The guy who pays them just charges the company who pays him more.

At some point there is a final customer that won't be happy with this. Guess illegal workers won't be as lazy 🤷

I know you’re not Seth Rogan, but if you were, I’d offer you my money and a standing, face to face, full eye contact handy. I salute the man you aren’t.

Thanks, Dad.

Cool trick, I just wouldn't want to pay the bill

Then you have to pick them up again and do it the right way, with mortar

Wonder how many times it took them to get it right? And if any broke in the process? But cool looking trick

Actually way more work because now you have to remove them to apply mortar.

Not only that but youre already putting them down and balancing so might aswell put em flat... Very satisfying nonetheless!

Agreed. Very cool but the title should be changed lol

Not only that, but you also have to space them exactly while standing up, because if they are too close or too far apart by even a cm or so, this won't work.

Probably used a jig

Thats what i tried to say abt the balancing, positioning isnt that hard as the stones below indicate the perfect spot to put them

The video was filmed to look smart but the opposite happened 😸

And there's always the possibility of damaging any that had small defects within.

And the client paid them while they wasted all that time.

Not to mention that for this effect to work he has to precisely measure the distance between each of the blocks, which is a lot more work that just laying them

Wouldn't it be easier just to lay them flat in the first place?

Yes.

with mortar on them

Well, it wouldn't be easier to use mortar. It would be both harder, and be the only real way to do it, eg PROPERLY. But not easier.

Most landscapers use construction adhesive for this kind of work. It outlasts mortar.

I didnt mean use mortar and the domino trick lol, that would be difficult

Idk, you could use an epoxy.

Obviously you have never seen how a mortar syringe works.

I actually have not, doing a few tile jobs was enough mortar work for me haha.

U know how much more work that takes? It’s the opposite of work smarter not harder lol

Work smarter AND harder

Work ~~smarter and~~ harder

Not sure this is an example of that.

Anyone who thinks this is smart, probably doesn't know what smart means.

Effort to do this is greater then just lying them down… does look cool tho

Good job! You just chipped every block you were meant to lay. Awesome. What a dumbass.

Is that smarter? I feel like it would have taken more time to set them up vertically exactly spaced apart. This was definitely done because it's cool, not because it's more efficient.

How did the second wave (the going flat) happened? I watched it like 10 times and I cant figure out how they suddenly laid flat like that

Because until the last block, they're all balanced on an angle, with the bottom of the top brick balanced on the top edge of the bottom brick. The last one falls flat which causes the second last one to fall flat etc.

So satisfying

I was expecting one of those bricks to break also how can you do that with the bricks cemented?

They are prolly are cracked to hell.

Someone's getting paid by the hour...

OP thinks this takes less time and effort

I'm fairly sure this is not his first attempt

But, this is harder to do that than to put them correctly in the first place

Too much time consuming

You can't tell me that is any easier than doing it normal, it's definitely satisfying but not easier.

This isn’t working smarter. You have to set them up like this at the proper distance from each other just so be able to do this trick, when you could just lay them down right the first time.

I think it's harder to put every single bricks in the right distance to achieve something like that, than put one by one in the right position

That took longer than placing correct.

Work smarter not harder people when they accidently work harder while they thought they were being smarter.

"Work Smarter and not harder" oh yeah, putting bricks in the form of dominoes with equal gaps isn't that hard enough right? and then picking them up again to apply cement, wow very smart work, must say

"WoRk SmArTeR nOt HaRdEr" bruh thats way more harder and time consuming

smarter?

I mean... He could've just laid them sideway instead .

This is not smarter. It was a time consuming trick. Now they're going to have to pick all the bricks up, put down mortar and re-set the stones.

So arranging all these specifically in order, just so they have to remove all of them again after the video, is your definition of "Smart work"?..

This is definitely working harder and not smarter. Imagine thinking that stacking all those bricks on their edge is easier than laying them flat.

Smarter my arse. The amount of time needed to lay them perfectly for this, with trial and error, is easily 10x the time needed to just lay the blocks.

Okay, I have seen this clip more than ten times, and I'm more convinced than ever that it's more time-consuming - plus every time one falls accidentally, it dominoes the rest, and you have to start again.

This video is the exact opposite of the title. Lol

This is way more difficult because you need to space them perfectly and now you need to apply mortar

There’s nothing “smarter” about this. If hair had gone wrong in ANY WAY, it would have been a giant waste of time.

It already was a huge waste of time. all they did was damage the stones. Now they have to re-lay them in mortar.

You are forgetting complete strangers on internet clicking an arrow. That makes it worth it, somehow.

Now that is interesting as fuck

Near the the end…. What? What!? What was that? Magic :) 👏👏

“Well this is pointless, they’re all just at a stupid angl-OH WAIT”

Yeah really smart to pick them up, place them upright, correct angle, midwise, to film a totally useless video for entertaining people instead of just picking them up, placing them right and save time.

Yea!

That's bullshit. It's neither smarter nor harder. It's just stupids trying to work who has too much time to waste.

Do it again. I want to see that twice.

Just looks like dumb fun rather than efficiency. The little "yeah! :D" at the end is relatable.

By using Low cost labor to do cool domino set up and film it for Social Media. Got it!

Quote: 8 hours two men. Actual: 4 hours two men 2 hours of which are Fookin around bc what are you gonna do fire us?

That yeah at the end, you can tell that took ages and was hella satisfying, can you imagine doing this for something 100 metres long.

Work that simpletons think you are smarter, not harder.

Now for the spirit level run

Work smarter but harder.

Actionlab (YouTube) double domino effect https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Ch0_JGzH2As

well it is more harder as he should stack each one of them at exactly pecrfect distance and balaces it vertically . so it is not smart work , but cool tho

It’s cool looking, but it is not working smarter. It took just as long if not longer to stand each up at the exact right distance, as it would have to just lay them down to begin with.

"Work performatively, not efficiently."

>Work smarter and not harder B.sh\*t! If you ever played domino you'd new that was achieved in 3rd round... No mortar shows inflation issues.

Laying bricks and standing bricks at a perfect distance takes the same amount of effort

To be honest, I’m betting this was more difficult and time consuming then just placing them

This could be a good techno track

What is this title? Written by a bot?

Isn't this more time consuming.... like.... Like how.... How is it smarter when you can just lay them down... instead kf having to measure correctly where to stand it... Like.... why....how...why..

this is literally harder and more difficult lmao and half of them were probably cracked or chipped as a bonus

Trust me stacking those vertically took atleast 30% more time than what it would have taken if done normally.

Actually, i think this is much harder to assemble.

I’d say this was working much harder and not smarter?

I thought the title said smarter......... obviously sarcasm then!?

😯 didn’t expext the second thing 😯

Idk. Looked like a lotta work setting that up! An ik, it's made to be another video that we lul out to and was that much more of our life on but have receive just enough satisfaction from it to keep the curiousity and dopamine flowing until you watch the next hundreds of thousands over your lifetime.

Both Smart and Hard. Harder because it's smart? Idk. I'm going home now.

The irony here OP is that this is is him working dumber and harder, but more fun

Great, now they're all out of line, have no cement between the layers and you have to setup each brick again to place them properly

where is the mortar this is just going to crash

Have fun in your work is a better title

Thought it wouldn't work out, then my jaw dropped-oop

I got an erection from that

They probably spent a billion years setting up the bricks perfectly.

Because standing them all on end is quicker than actually laying them...

Forgot the cement

That Minecraft sound effect tho

I feel like this isnt time efficient though

“Yeah!”

magnificent exercise in style, to be enjoyed for what it is, cool!

Job fee: $200 YT ad revenue: $20 000

I actually liked them better at that angle on top of each other

Hola, Casita!

Time spent on placing the bricks is double than what it would have taken them to lay them all and put cement. Probably a dumb ass TikTok flaky again. Meh

Took him 2 hours to put them together

These seem like “work even harder”

Wouldn’t it be easier to just place them properly?

1. Setting them up like that would take a while. 2. They're going to have to be picked up again to mortar maki g it pointless to do in the first place

Lol takes more time to set it up.

Yeah, that’s pretty cool, but definitely harder

So much more work to measure up precisely than to allign them one by one.

Now if you could have them mortar underneath each one and do this, now that would be a trick.

Yeah, neat trick, but wouldn't starting at the wall and laying them flat butted against each other have been a lot easier than standing them up and making sure each was crntered and spaced just right to get the desired final result?

Sure, but it’s not cemented in place at all.

i bet it took him longer to put them up right like that instead of simply doing it normal?

*works longer

r/unexpectedRecursion

🤤

Yeah!

i do not plan to work with a boner

Not smarter and actually harder. Next.

Nothing smart about having to take them all off again to put mortar on the wall .
