Lol! I’ve been enjoying 3 Day weekends for 18yrs, love the 4 10’s I wish more outfits would go to that schedule. You would have happy Peeps!!

 

Good Morning All

More yard work today before I go to work.
Not working this weekend.
Yesterday got new garage door openner, LP tank was filled, went to grocery store, tires came and made appointment for mounting and got doctor bill.

 

Thanks I’ve read some of that before but will have to sit and read through the whole thing. I love reading these kinds of builds. I couldn’t ever afford it but still neat to read about it

 

Morning all

Slid back a little yesterday, feel crappy again.

Too much dust.

The engineering in the bell cantilever is pretty impressive. 18" of travel on a 10" shock!

 

Stuff like that isn't uncommon down here. It boils down to how much money it takes in relation to how fast you want to drive in the desert. Some shops build them to show their work and the latest and greatest stuff you can order...pretty much a rolling display.

 

Good morning.

So very sadly true.

When I first got here on active duty civilians were on 4 10’s; every other weekend is a 3 day’r now...I wish we could get back 4 10’s.

Sorry Andy, hope you feel better again soon.

 

It's true in theory. I have a 4/10 schedule but I've been doing 5's and 6's for the last 4+ years. But I wouldn't do it if I didn't like my job plus all the OT is going to make retirement a little easier. Now, if we ever go through a management fiasco like some of you guys, I'm going to be a strict 4/10 mf'er and they can pound sand.

 

It’s an impressive truck all around. Hell I don’t even understand some of this stuff. Sorry your feeling bad again this cold we have is still hanging on as well

 

This morning's sunrise.

 

Good morning. Made it to another day on this side of the dirt.

Perfect Jimi! I always felt if I had a job where I could 4 10's I'd take it in a heartbeat over anything else out there. Leading up to the rollout next weekend been running ~5 12's and a few more on the weekends including tomorrow morning. And next week will be a few 24 and carry on. But once the dust settles should be back to "normal" 45 hours or so a week. And the pay is the same LOL. But it is good money so no complaints. Well sure I can, like I use to tell my men a bitching man is a happy man, so guess it is time to carry my ass back to work

Well that sucks Andy, just in time for the weekend of course. Hope you feel better soon.

 

So that's how they do that

 

The tank has 2 sections. One for "service" and the otherside for ballast. In wet country a good flood will float the entire thing right out of the hole. We don't worry about that here.

 

I'll get a shot of the tank and mastic on the next one.

 

Good morning everyone.working 18:00-6:00 Fri,Sat,Sun.i guess thats.a 3 day weekend. have a good day.had kitchen counters replaced yesterday. they installed the wrong sink. Momma not happy at all. Will have to go buy some yard plants to relieve situation
