Busy site made me rethink my mortar mixing habit

My old boss always said hand mixing lets you judge the texture just right. Last week, the crew brought in a mixer to beat the deadline. It saved a ton of time, but the mix seemed off to me. Some guys argue time is money, while my gut says stick with hands. What's your vote on this?

After @foster.mary's cement soup story, I'm voting for the mixer. Your gut might like hands, but my money's on not flooding the site.

My hand-mixing skills are so bad I once made cement soup.

Was the soup at least better than your brick laying?
