We got one more smile out of him for the photo here, then he fell right back to sleep, no kidding."

Perkins Roofing Corp from Florida writes, "Definition of the word ‘perspective’: a particular attitude toward or way of regarding something; a point of view. It’s always best to get a different perspective. This includes on roofs we inspect (hello, drone shots 🛸), customer’s point of view and the importance of educating them about their roof, and your own perspective toward roofers around the world who complete tough work we sometimes take for granted. Everyone can use a little refreshing of perspective once in a while. Challenge: next time you see a roofer, look up to them! @rooferscoffeeshop.” #RoofersCoffeeShop #RoofingContractors #RoofersForum #RoofingRespect
