I've seen every mistake that can be made on a construction site, which is why I rarely make them anymore. Young people today want shortcuts, but quality craftsmanship still requires time and attention to detail.
Physical Condition
Dieter shows significant joint degeneration in his knees and shoulders from decades of physical labor. He often needs assistance with climbing scaffolding and relies more on directing others for physically demanding tasks. Despite this, his experience and knowledge make him invaluable on the job site.
Favorite Place
Dieter's favorite place is the carpenter's workshop at the company headquarters. The smell of fresh-cut wood reminds him of working with his father, who was also a builder. He appreciates the organization of the space, with every tool hanging in its designated spot. During lunch breaks, he often sits at the workbench in the corner, sharing stories with younger workers while maintaining his collection of hand tools that he's accumulated throughout his career.
