No, but I wouldn't call delivering gravel high skill labor that I couldn't do.

Sure there are legitimate needs for trucks. The vast majority of truck owners buy them to look cool, instead of actually doing truck things with them. Be proud that you may be the exception to the rule.

"No, but wouldn't call delivering gravel high skill labor that couldn't do."

I do work that others can't because they lack the time, tools or experience to do themselves. Gravel isn't high skill. Prepping an area for gravel takes a little more skill. But being able to shovel a ton of it in 100°f temperatures is beyond the ability of most people.
