    Just got a sweet gig from an existing customer. That big estate on Cumberland Foreside.

    There's an old "Beach House" sitting above the rocky shoreline. It had an addition added sometime in the 70's. The addition was on the back and would be the equivalent of the vertical section of a capital T. The top of the T facing the water.

    They're having that section demolished to return the footprint to the original. Only a demo permit required.

    My job for 3 days is to be on-site to watch/observe/supervise the demolition. It's being done by hand as getting heavy equipment down there is nearly impossible. They can get a Dumpster within 50'. And they have to sheath the back to prep for planned renovations this summer.

    Why would you want to load that bike in the bed of your truck anyway?
    Way too many sketchy scenarios no matter how good you are.

    I was unloading that pallet of 20 hydraulic cylinders, due to another pallet we already unloaded these ones were too far back for the forks to reach. Used the backhoe with a strap to drag it to the end of the bed.
