Working Smarter Instead of Harder Worked for These People

Brother with a Plan

My brother-in-law spent a whole summer trying to figure out how to fix his sagging deck at the lake, which he wanted to crawl under and jack up. It would have been a tunneling project.

It’s a 60 by 60 area, all with long two by six boards. It was completely massive. I sat there long enough with enough drinks in me to come up with the idea of just cutting a square out of the sagging area, jacking it up, then re-screwing down the boards.

He paints the thing every spring with a roller anyhow, so it’s not like the square cut shows up. He thought I was a genius, but I was just lazy. Story Credit: Reddit/Bbbbbbbbbb99
