fox_racin4 Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Fox what trucks are more reliable?IMO peterbilts and kenworths have less issuesVolvos and freightlines have alot of electrical issues when its wet, they like to blow fuses randomly too. But if they were maintaned properly there would be much less issues. All the trucks are "fleet trucks" an have 1M+ miles on them ( ive seen a handfull with 4M miles ) It all comes down t maintnence really 1998 gmc extd cab 12 crossfire C710s 4 SAZ-4500s 3 Singer 400A altsbuncha mids/highs Team Asshole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omg_spoon Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Work a at plastic fab shop, mostly packaging and shipping parts. Lot of time cycling machines and junk. Pretty interesting, have access to all the plastic I could ever want. Hate it alot of the time cause half the employees are old russians who are lazy as fuck. 98 Mustang GTSinger 3202 12" Incriminator Death Penalties1 SAZ-2500dv22 D3100,1 D34002 Crescendo CZ-65SAX-100.2Door panels by Diablo Kustomz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emmet Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Work in a metal fabricators outside of school hours. It's fun, using cnc plasma cutters and hot forging. Hands on work is probably the best job I could have gone for now. Looking at books for quite a lot of the week, it's nice to get into a workshop. People can be dumb as shit sometimes though, come in with a scribble on a napkin and ask us to make it. Then they get mad when you politely ask them what the fuck is the scribble meant to be. Don't care how it's made or the problems involved they just want it done. i shook this one kids hand and it just folded in mine. long story short i fucked his girlfriendso.. yeah.. You want this to happen to you? Give decent handshakes people. I was gifted with an innate ability to distribute wholesale ass beatings in a timely and orderly fashion.

DubNDodge Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 I work at a Canoe livery. Unload canoes, launch the customers onto the river, load the canoes at the landing(best spot to be, get to see all the drunks) We send out canoes 90lbs, kyaks 50lbs, rafts 130lb, and tubes 5lb. I've worked there for 3 years now. This next summer will be my 4th. Get promoted to driver now, since I'm 18. So I'll drive the trailers back with all the canoes loaded. In my area, this is the job to have as a teenage guy. Pros: The work is outside(get tan and not confined inside) Keeps me in shape, build/keep muscle Girls in bikinis, drunk girls in bikinis. Not severely monitered Get beer as a tip, I don't take it though because I can't stand the taste. Down time whenever there aren't any customers. There is a cookout every sunday as a reward for working hard on the weekend. (we can serve up to 5000+ people in a day) Time and a half on saturdays, due to the huge amount of people coming through (means we have to work harder) Company trips My boss is a freaking beast, easily the best boss I'll ever have in my life. As long as you we do work he's cool. If work isn't getting done... well.... Pro and con: Can get 50+ hour weeks. That wears on me real quick though. Cons: Understaffed badly sometimes Tears up your body, shoulder issues, back issues There is no set time for breaks, eat whenever you have time. Haven't gotten to eat lunch until 4 once, but is not usually a problem on weekdays. No set end time. I've worked a 13.5 hour day, which is really long when doing a lot of lifting. Freaking moronic customers, indians, chinese, amish, people with no damn common sense It is a seasonal job Lazy ass co-workers, ignorant new co-workers that don't follow seniority.

RickyFriery97 Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 I work at a family owned company. one of the biggest Pipe bending and fabrication shops in the US Company is called Bendco if anyone is interested in some of our work ( www. Bendco.com ) its been open for 30 years, so I've literally been around it my whole life (I'm 20 going on 21) most of the guys there have been there for as long as I can remember and also have two of my best friends working in the shop, so its a very laid back work environment. I do a lil bit of everything, hot shot truck runs, loading and unloading trucks, operating machines, fab, computer stuff, wherever im needed ill be there. My grandpa started the company, and my dad is now the CEO, so im next in line for the boss man seat. I have a lot to learn. im going to go to some school for business and some induction classes also. Here's a coil used as a heat exchanger where finishing up this week That's about half of one of our bays, we have three the same size. on about 10 acres of land. Another thing I plan on doing is getting my CDL, we have a peterbilt 18 wheeler that needs some use. if I can add a shipping cost using my own truck ill hop in there and drive wherever it needs to go. 2014 Chevy Silverado Crewcab 1994 Chevy Full Size blazer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
