    If that's plain old conduit with nothing more expensive contained within, the person who came up with shipping it like that needs to cut back on their drug consumption.

    No, just the opposite. More work for trucks like that.

    Alright, here's the scoop. They are electrical conduit. They bury them and then encase them in concrete. It's for a new Facebook (govt) server farm in Missouri.

    I know. However, the width just made them awkward. So instead of sitting flat on the deck where I could run my chain around a spool or two, they sat all wonky on the spools and my chain had to go under. It was just a crap design, that's all.

    When I was there, one of the other guys that I loaded with was taking them all back up with him to get his next load. Most of those guys are dedicated. They just had me cover for a guy that was out, I guess. They do 3 a day of those. Guy offered me more, but I couldn't. Paid good and weight was like 8k.
