Distractions are Easy, Work is Hard

Propensity to gossip and chat and get distracted rather then be task oriented – or maybe some people are entertaining, but it was tough to do wood chips steadily with the four of us because of the chattiness. We did work hard. There was an interesting moment on our third or fourth time shoveling when one person had to move places several times until she could find an angle she could shovel in, and we joked that she was inefficient since she could only do things one way. I wonder if or what I should suggest to help them think of that for themselves.
