For some reason every dream i have there is a concrete pump in it. I had a dream about tornadoes and before the next round of them came thru we had to hurry up and rebuild the concrete structures via concrete pumps. heck it can be a dream about anything but a pump is always there---go figure!? I might of have ingested too much concrete and hyd fluid into myself and am going crazy? There is nothing like pulling a 20 hr shift and the cpl hrs you sleep you are still working. Just curious if this happens to others.

Yep, guilty of dreaming of pumps myself.
Even though I haven't been pumping for almost a year I still do. And I still hear the sound of the first pump I worked on in my head, a CIFA.

Hydraulic oil and concrete is a funny mix...

i think that any of us that are passionate about this line of work dream about it. i am like the turnernator the only reason i know that i dream about it constantly is my wife waking me up about my "pumpdreams". im sure bri is havin clutch dreams right now though right bri?

I dream a lot about milk pumps. They're a pleasure to prime.
