Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

Good riddance

 

You okay JD? You've been a little more snappy than usual lately?

 

Took a load of plank to Massachusetts today, way out in the middle of nowhere for some guys house. Boy is he gonna have a heck of a nice view...

 

Just tired of constant stupid crap, people trying to prove how smart they are when they have zero idea what they’re talking about. I’m going to have to expand my ignore list.

 

He said he made a mistake, not that he knows it all. I know that sometimes I don't catch everything in a first read....too often in a hurry.

Just my humble opinion, but in this case I think some grace might be appropriate.

 

Nope, I made a comment to another member, he jumped in having zero idea what he was taking about. I clarified and he kept going. He’s all over the forum spreading his knowledge and I’m not the only one to notice. I’ve been here a long time and put up with a lot of crap at this point I have zero interest in being graceful to him or anyone that doesn’t earn it.

 

1st fabbed steel load


2nd fabbed steel load

<insert picture here if I had not forgotten to take one. oppps>

Then they send me here with a 53' double drop.

had to back into that. not supposed to take pictures i found out later (oppps) sooooooooooo that's the governer's mansion across the street. you can tell it's right downtown. THEN they say, oh no we can't load this machine, we need you to back into the dock. I'm in a double drop that won't work. Yeah, go get a flatbed.

Go measure machine.
Machine is like a little over 10' tall
This isn't going to work, i'm going to be oversize.

So, go get flatbed, back in again. (but now i'm in the system so didn't have to block road for 30 minutes. ) and back into a dock. They load this machine. it weighs a grand total of 700lbs and it's on wheels. Why can't we just wheel it down the ramp and then fork it up onto the double drop? Oh no, too top heavy for that. yeah, whatever

Get it loaded. Get a route from dispatch.

IT'S FIFTEEN FEET 1INCH TALL.
Tall sucks
suck sucks sucks

Get to delivery site. They say back into door:

Guy comes out and says "yeah, that's not going to fit" (No kidding, really???????? i mean that's the picture above. it's OBVIOUS)

And goes and gets his forklift and takes it right off and takes it up his ramp.

FFS

 

Another day on the rock pile.

 

did a bunch of drop and hook piddly stuff cuz dispatch screwed the pooch. "come in early to leave at 6am. get in and hooked and "oh that isn't supposed to leave until 10am" Bah, could have slept in.

Went and got concrete barrier.

Probably close to or over gross there. My tractor is heavy and concrete barrier is always heavy.

went and got concrete stairs.



certainly odd
