    2/3rds of our "front of the house" staff is usually drunk or high (or both) while they're on the clock. You get what you get.....

    Good help is hard to find, the downside to a good economy.

    Leaf blower with PVC pipe extension, then a 90 and a 45 elbow, blow out gutters from the ground. Old ass doesn't bounce off the ground as well as it did when I was young.

    Yeah I have seen a few setups and thought well if I ever had to do it I would set one up ... LOL Sadly I don't own but a quasi leaf blower ie the removable motor from the big shop vac. It Is capable I have used it to blow out the garage ands such. Not really keen on climbing ladders my knees and ankle have a thing about that lol . The bounce is what bothers me lol it will be more of a dull thud and groan then an accounting of what might be broken lol. On the upside it is a single story ranch so what is that 15 ish feet ... :}

    The old saying,”you get what you pay for”. Our company struggles with the concept.

    Good morning, all! Sorry I haven't been around posting a lot lately, but I had to run down to the dealership to get my new aortic valve installed. :dancingbacon:

    It was a little more intense of an experience than I had initially expected, but the medical folks say I'm recovering from it well. :thumbsup:

    How are you all doin'?
