Matt posts, "Penguins are in charge in Antarctica, and we have safe distances that we have to remain from them to make sure we don’t disturb them. Sometimes, they take a liking to our equipment, so we have to find something else to do until they decide to move on. This penguin is an Adélie penguin that was hanging around the base and he took a liking to our excavator. We were more than happy to postpone our work to avoid disturbing him." Awwwww! @Wizarddeddas comments, "Sorry boss. Can't work today. Penguins. Sounds like the best excuse ever!

@Sammmiexleigh adds, "I wouldn’t last at that job I would be to busy trying to pet the Penguins." @Tay comments, "This is so sweet! I’m glad they hire the right people that follow these rules." We can't wait to see more of Matt's content. Maybe he'll encounter polar bears next!
