    Hi bbeach, not too bad as a bulker to be honest. Takes about 15 min to rig in. Wait 1/2 hour to 40 min for product to push out (depending on quantity) and another 15 min to rig out. I'm just learning this process for now (baby steps). Have to get behind the wheel yet.

    I really liked doing bin hauls; usually a nice easy bonus. Have you been out on a full job yet?

    If you mean a full job as driving from base to lease and rigging in/out and back...yes. In all honesty I will like this job a lot better when it warms up...lol

    Bin fills are great most of the time, until you over fill them. Rigging in the iron in the spring is so much fun, I almost wanted to volunteer my time.

    It's when you stand there running the bins on a 150 ton job for a couple hours with no relief on -30 days, you find out if your boots are warm enough or not :) My toes got a little cool my never really painfully cold.
