Obviously a lot of satisfaction goes along with the work for someone like BigV, though. Efficient? Maybe it is for him, what with the enjoyment factored into it. I couldn't say for sure, since I'd only be about a 1.2 on the scale.

I'd rather work overtime to pay someone to do it. Then if the wife isn't happy with the finished product, it isn't my fault.

I got a great deal of satisfaction ripping off the old roof and putting down a new one. But anyone who's done a roof, no matter how much satisfaction, doesn't look forward to doing it again... unless they're a sadist.

Roofing is not fun. Why do you think roofers will lie, cheat and kill, to get a job in the Union Hall?
