You shovel 16 tons and what do you get?

Another day closer to the robot being shipped.

Back in my day, we had to CARRY the crate to the FedEx store, three miles away, in the snow, uphill both ways. You call this bad?

Wouldn't it have been simpler just to build a new crate?

Billfred, you just have to get to school before it starts snowing. Then when you're trapped, there would be nothing to do but have a continuous build marathon, until they manage to dig you out. Be sure to bring adequate supplies of Mountain Dew.

"Dude, quit landing the snow where I'm shoveling!"
"Dude, that's not me doing it to you, it's you doing it to me and yourself! Quit trying to blame me!"
"Yeah, right! You're the one trying to blame me!"

Distant mentor voice: "You two quit that arguing and shovel faster, or you'll be up on the roof clearing that off after you're done! And if you argue about that, you'll be breaking up all the ice on Lake Ontario!"

This is where their past robots have been cryogenically frozen, only to be cannibalized in future seasons.
