This is kind of a tag along to Ron G's thread, "What do you like to run?" Let us know what equipment you prefer not to run and why.
The job I least liked was running a vibratory roller compacting road base. We were building a road for a subdivision and I had to run a tricycle style roller, with a big drum up front and two rubber tires in the back.
I think it was a Rayco if I remember right, bright green. It had a 3/71 Detroit that had to run at full throttle. Between the drone of the engine and the heat of the day, it was tough to stay awake on the machine!
I think that was the most boring job I remember.
