    One year anniversary.

    Job is going good, I transferred to a different plant. A suburb of Minneapolis instead of downtown.

    It’s half the commute and we are just as busy as the mpls plant. A lot more windshield time now.

    We’re hiring if anyone in the metro area wants a job hit me up.

    Kw w900 or t800

    They haul between 10-12 yards. We got these stupid long ones for road restrictions in the spring with 7 axles. They ride nice though.

    Yeah, we’re the only company that runs them here I think.

    Nice, that’s not a bad job seems pretty chill.

    Today I watched someone huff a can of dust off then hop in their car and casually crash through a fence and almost crash into a wall we were pouring.

    Well, done with readymix on the 20th lol.

    Going to a paving company, better pay and winters off and they are willing to train on equipment.

    I’ve been trying to get in the operators union forever. Now once I’m vested in the teamsters (NOT central states pension, mine is good) I’ll be switching to the operators union.

    This was my first job with a huge company and the work was good but the company sucked. They are getting cameras and I’m not sticking around for that and they just don’t treat drivers well.

    Now I’ll be working for a mom n pop paving company dump trucking and running a skid steer to start, then they’ll slowly train me in on everything else. Super nice family, they are well known around here to be awesome to work for.

    Should be pretty sweet, the owner is really cool and seems excited to have a younger guy in there trying to get on some big iron.

    Trucks are old Petes and new western stars. I’ll be in a quad axle Pete.
