What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

i just caught up reading lol and i didnt get a chance to camp. i been at work and im training a new kid tomorrow hope this one can last more then 3 hours. im tired of today's people either have no respect in what they are doing or to lazy to move a empty 55 gallon barrel.

 

I think Toyotathon is on so they'll all be back on Tuesday with 3rd Jenns

 

What do you do for work

 

which is why im cranking in the overtime. to avoid the toyotathon lol i dont want the 3rd jen infection

 

I needed a little more towing and a place for my 4wheeler. I like my Toyota pickups/Tacomas. The FJ looks good and capable, but not a good fit for my needs.

 

Which way are these damn things supposed to go?

 

disposal of chemicals. half the stuff i deal with can kill you so we need a air supply mask and suit. most of the stuff we can be ok with a full face mask. but theres some in room B that can be absorbed through the skin. last kid we had stacking barrels and by lunch time he through a hissy fit and left. we had good reason to have him as stacker. last time he was pouring he mixed some acid with something else and we had to evacuate. i cant remember what acid it was right now. but i take my job very serious and theres a time and place to goof off and not.

 

You just gotta stack barrels and move the around, sounds easy...

 

thats half the job but we also have to separate them so we can dispose of properly. but when we get a new person we start you off as stacker. its easy and gives you the chance to see how things are set up look around for exit doors, what barrels go where, ect

 

Im sure it oays decent too.. idk why people have a problem, sounds pretty strait forward to me

 

We hit a deer, and the Tundra brake mod stopped on a dime & gave me 9 cents change! It bent the bumper brackets in and made the driver tire rub.

Here’s a few pics straightening out things...

 

So what happened to the deer??

 

i take it serious im the team leader and i take safety over speed. if we only dispose 20% of our work load and everyone is safe so be it. i been working there for 3 years now and since i became team leader last year i havent had a single accident or injury on my team. but yea, i like to think i do things the smart way. so far the other 2 people i work with think so to, and agree with my methods.

 

nice job, im sure it would of been alot worse with out the upgraded brakes

 

I mean if i was working with stuff that could kill me I would do it the start/safer way too. Idk why anyone would want to do it any other way

 

It rolled 100 ft like a rag-doll tumbling down off an embankment. I hate it but sometimes you loose the meat.

 

The Tundra 4 piston calipers don’t play! You’ll spill your coffee if you stomp the brakes.

 

I would of chased it down and mounted the antlers on the hood, but to each there own i guess lol

 

kids today have no respect for honest work. and dont seem to like it when someone yells at them when they screw up cause they cant follow simple instructions. one kid damn near opened room b "thinking it was the way to the bathroom. theres hazard labels every where on that door. luckily i put in a double lock on it. and only team leaders know the code for the second lock

 

There supposed to go in like the one on the right
