Yeah, I get that, every job has its wrinkle, and it's just another wrinkle on the incorrect impression that many hands on a job have of a crane operator, which is, they think you got it made just sitting in that comfy seat pulling levers while they do the labor. Yes, the seat time is the easy part for the most part, but there are lifts that draw your arse cheeks up so tight you couldn't drive a nail between them with a sledge hammer. And they also don't consider you have to determine where to place the rig for the lift, set it up, level it, all manner of mathematics, geometry, and physics. There's actually a helluva lot of head smarts to set up a crane and make a lift that doesn't end in damage to persons or property.
