    I don't think anyone likes it. I did one load of it about a year ago, huge hassle.

    What's worse than having to redo your own work? Having to redo someone else's. For free. I'm glad I paid $12 for a shower this morning, just great.

    Drywall itself is not the issue, the issue is these guys have a team of people yet can't do the job correctly. Maybe I should not do anything next time and just supervise.

    I'm told the guys at the place I picked up from lost their contract and will be all losing their jobs. I guess that explains it.

    From what I've been told the guy who owned it died and it was auctioned off. The guy had bought this one along with many other things from Allis Chalmers when they went out of business. There were about 10 buildings on this farm just filled with old AC tractors and parts.

    There are quite a few places where the AC orange is worn off and the Steiger green is showing through though.

    Might have been their first time loading with all the straps under the tarps just because I mentioned I'd prefer it. So it's possible they just get away with not knowing how to properly secure tarps with bungies because the straps take care of it.

    Would this have come from a farm in Iowa. Maybe this one?
