    I always chain counterweights out of Manitowoc. No one has complained. Straps and pads on the boom.

    We always chain counterweights also speaking of , I was picking a new one up at the komatsu dealer last week and the yard guy comes out and tells me I need to put padding under my chains ( side note our sticker guy went by there three days prior and put our company logo and name on the thing ) I tell him you see the name on this thing also the same name on the door of my truck and same name on my uniform who's going to complain . He turned around and walked away mumbling something I couldn't understand . Btw We are a demolition and wrecking company nothing we have looks new after a week in service

    Trust me I try to stay in the truck as much as possible. Otherwise when I try to help another driver they'll chew me out.

    I had an encounter with a door slammer in Laredo this morning , I guess he thought since he's a BCO that means ya just pull in and double park like ya own the place ..perk of being a BCO lol...then after ya got the place blocked up so nobody can get in or out ya get a tude and complain when I ask you to move ...after all you are a BCO and should be treated like the royalty that you are a lol.
