Well, I know that many would say 1and a half days, but we all know that you can't dig a half a hole, so I quess I would have to say it would take the man 3 days to dig a hole. Then again how big is the hole!! Then again how fast does this person want to work and what size shovel, what kind of dirt/material are they digging in? This sounds like I am beginning to make a price quote to do a job. So if I was paying for these men to dig these whole, holes then I would give them a very big shovel so the job would be done very quickly!!!
