Definately part of the SOLUTION!
I'll bet it is. I could never do that job...I don't think I have that kind of patience or that kind of compassion. Kudos to you:)

It has it days. The worst things are something that you know is going to be bad! Like if you drop something. One time I was loading a box of dynamite on to a flat bed truck and a buddy was loading a long box on as well, I had set it down and walked to the front of the truck, he didn't see the box I had just set down and pushed it right off the other side. I happened to look back and see it falling and grabbed it before it hit the ground, after we took it down to be looked at it was found to be in a hazardous condition and would have blown up if it hit the ground. Now with 11 sticks of dynamite, and the truck setting in front of a storage building packed full of bombs, and I’m not talking about small stuff like C4 or TNT but bombs that we drop on bad guys. The doors on these buildings are so big and thick and heave that it takes two guys to open them; it would have blown the two doors and the truck, or what’s left of the truck, 3 miles across the bay. That’s when you stop and check you pants
:nervous:

GSE mechanic for Delta airlines. Repair jetways, baggage systems, ground power, and yes all those little bag tugs and such! Very unrewarding work but benefits are good (used to be better).

Self Employed I.T. Consultant and day trader when I'm between contracts. Nothing like being your own boss. My ideal job when I make enough money at what I'm doing now (Is that possible?) is to play classical guitar at the local coffee shop.
