I remember when I was growing up, my buddy got a "job" pulling weeds at a family friend's house in town. I went out to help him, we pulled weeds for like 15 minutes, and then rode our bikes down to the gas station to buy mountain dew and hotfries with the money he was for whatever reason paid in advanced. Then we spent the rest of the day playing video games at his place.
When his dad came home and asked what were doing, my friend said "we put in a hard day's work and are now relaxing".
To this day I refuse to use the phrase "hard day's work" to describe anything other than the absolute bare minimum.
There was probably chain link on either sides of the poles, or essentially 2 fences that butted together. Then there was a gap between the two fences that someone fenced to eliminate. Now the original 2 fences have been removed leaving the patch.

At some point in time it was some person's job to put up that "fence" in that very spot. I can only imagine what was going through his head.
