Jua kali workers

Jua kali means 'hot sun' and these are the fellows, usually with little or no formal training who work out in the open on casual jobs. We are having our contractor make a standard mold for the base slabs of composting toilets. It will save time and effort and standardize the measurements for the rest of the structure.
Work is basically on hold in the schools as we wait for the end of the teachers' srike, so this is a good time to catch up on filing, prep. sorting etc. I love that (not!)

  1. There is always work to be done when you're helping people. It is great to streamline and standardize things as much as possible in the building of things.
