A red excavator right in front of my living room window

And it won't move today or tomorrow either. Monday? There is hope.

I understand the need for renovation. I'm not complaining about that. But there would've been enough space to move it 10 meters to the right, park it properly.

This is my main window.

Oh I'm just right now in a project working for the software department for Yanmar, I think that is the first time I see their machines in the wild outside of Japan.

Well. It's not their fault. Nice coincidence though.

Fun fact: there’s a stadium in Almere, The Netherlands that has their name, as they’re the main sponsor

They're very common as marine motors, too. I think those are repurposed tractor designs.

Oh yeah, I thought I had seen that brand before. Big marine shop on my way to work, some years ago.

Very reliable, but they're not designed to be serviced in a tight space. So much boat yoga.

That type of equipment commonly use standard keys across the model line.

I don't have any experience with Yanmar, but that's how it is with Kubota excavators.

My experience is with John Deere and it's like that with their tractors.

I agree, but only because I'm jealous they've discovered prosperity without it being a labour death-march like America.

Yeah exactly, this year we've been working with the agriculture and heavy machinery division, the plan it to extend our work to the rest of the divisions over time.

A lot of times the operator will leave the keys in the cab somewhere. You might be able to just move it yourself.
