    Those axles are supposed to be rolled to where the toe-in is correct as part of a dealer PDI. That rarely gets done.

    Got fiber ran today along with some underground welding from the hoe operator. Had to call in for a splice.

    After a couple calls the installer is supposed to be here Thursday to install the equipment.

    Guess I'll have to find something to do till then.

    Now there is a productive day!

    Couldn't be the operators fault. Its always the locators fault.

    It was the locators fault. But he was a young college kid working as a apprentice for the operator.

    Seeing how I was neither one I can honestly say it wasn't MY fault.

    They were all real nice people and did a good job. I even learned how to splice fiber. I've worked with it alot but never spliced it. Pretty simple really.

    Learn something new every day. Should mention that to those goofballs running down the highway with their trailer wheels at about 25° negative camber like they're in Fast & Furious. Amazing that little cotter pin keeps the wheel nut from spinning off running like that.
