I lost my job in Jan. for no reason other then one person's completely ignorant agenda.(I don't say that out of spite, it is a proven fact and they just fired another good employee with no reason, to back up my point.)

Shortly after being let go I contacted a customer of mine who I had been talking with about building a few tailgates for his rough dump trucks. Long story short he was looking for a full time mechanic and fabricator to keep his stone hauling trucks and rough hauling trucks on the road. Things happen for a reason and me getting let go opened this AWESOME opportunity. The last few weeks have been getting all the lights working so the truck are legal and other odds and ends.

Now that is out of the way I will be repairing any holes in the beds and other fabrication projects. Finally getting to truck related multimedia material!
The top step was destroyed and sandwiched back together at least 3 times and the vertical risers had been aluminum and were broken so the bottom wasn't supported.

 

You only painted one step?

 

 

I only built one step. The lower is galvinized and we only had half a can. Needed to get the metal painted and it will all get another coat or two tomorrow.

 

Kool ... I like ...

 

nothing better than someone enjoying their job.

 

Congrats man, certainly makes work easier when you enjoy what you're doing.

So how many trucks are you gonna be responsible for?

 

13 plus I am looking for an investor for my own. We are the go-to for many of the smaller guys in town. I am rebuilding the bottom of a gate for another company.

 

Good for you man. I know all too well how the economy can suck and how its hard to find a job, especially one that you like.

 

Congrats on the job. I recently left a job I enjoyed pretty well for a $2.00/hr raise and regret it from time to time. A job you enjoy goes a long way.
