It's a really valued technique that ensures that when a line is moving as one - they are truly in a mindset where they share the same goal, same vision, same execution.
At the end of the exercise- they go back and look at the lines of snow left behind to see where there was a disruption in the groupthink.
Then, they do it again, and again, until they can have one clear plow - with no snow left behind.
Each person is not only responsible for making sure that their "plow" is clean - but that they aren't adding to the next person's "plow" by slacking off.
At the same time, they are also responsible for catching any excess that is inadvertently left behind by the people to the right and left.
It is extremely difficult to do - because as you can see, when one turns to the left or right - to help those beside them - they cannot help but create more of a burden to the person they turn away from.
It requires trust, and dependability, and responsibility, and I'm completely making all of this up because I have too much time on my hands but thanks for listening.
Yeek, I promise to improve!!! :0D
This is acceptable! LOLOL
I would be mighty pissed if I, as part of the army was called in to sweep half an inch of snow! Lol :OD
This is called shouldering.
