    One of our 3 water trucks has electric windows… anyone want to wager a guess which truck you can’t roll up or down the window?

    I had a short day yesterday, 7.5 hours and I ran out the door! I had time to go to the metal store to pick up a piece of aluminum for a project I have to do.
    Wow, a work life balance, imagine that.

    4 pm, rolling through Detroit on a Friday. Every liquor store is packed, and every weed store is lined up outside. Pretty sad really, that's all these people work for is to get high and drunk on payday. And they drive like shit around me and I'm hauling heavy.
    Oh well, my day is almost done and I'm not going to think about this job until Monday.

    The other day, while waiting to get into a dock, I thought of my New Year's resolution. In 2024, I think I'll quit working. It may take a couple of months, but I think I can be successful.








    74 working days/114 calendar days, but who's counting?!

    Long day today, really got busy at work all of a sudden. I gotta start an hour early tomorrow so I can leave early. I ordered a machine for my wood shop and it came in so I have to go pick it up at the trucking company. I live on a dead end cul-de-sac and trucking companies won't come here. I said why not? Garbage trucks do! I can see not in a semi but a box truck would be no problem. But whatever, I'll go get it.
