So, last week the company truck mechanic stopped by where I was working on a paving machine in their yard. He told me that he had another employment opportunity and wondered what I would think. After telling me what he was looking at, the pay, the time, the travel........I told him if he didn't take it he was stupid.
Well, he took it and quit last Friday. During this conversation he asked me what I thought of TNH. I told him that since he had been hired I had only seen him twice at the yard, and that was at quitting time. He said that didn't surprise him. He said that several times he had gone to a job and saw TNH sitting in his truck at the job..........not doing anything but waiting on something to break down. Hell, no wonder I never see him. He then told me that one of the job supers had helped him get those pads off that dozer rail, and that from what he saw, the super did most of the work. HNC has been gone for over a week with Covid, or so he says. In the meantime, nothing at the yard is getting done.............same ol same ol!!!! Its rather disgusting but I'm doing my best to ignore it for now. Yes, its driving me insane
