I know you guys have loads of stories. Whats the funniest job story you have had? We had a job at a nudist colony pumping a slab one morning. It was called White Tail Park. We sent the operator out there and didn't tell him it was a nudist colony. We got a phone call about 1 hour after he was on the job and he was rolling laughing. He knew something was up when a guy walked by with nothing but a tool belt on. He was the maintenance man. Then there was a woman that came up to him and the guys with glasses of lemonade asking them if they wanted any lemonade. Let's just say the carpets didn't match the drapes.

its terrible when you need sun screen on your dick 

I bet the concrete burns would really suck as well!! LOL!

I bet your boom was a hit.

A while back when doing some house walls north of Toronto a women asked what I was doing and what was that thingy in the air I said the thingy was a mobile docking station for the Good Year Blimp and when I am not being a moble dock for the blimp I flip a switch and I can pump concrete it just so happens I was in the area and said I can make some extra money while the blimp is touring around. The lady waited till I pumped 3 walls and asked when the blimp was comming back I said they want me to go and set up the dock in Toronto instead of waiting for it here....

Her reply was ...... I waited all afternoon to see the blimp in my neighbourhood. I said I am sorry and I have to go now.....lol

 I have one more I had a hose hugger who liked to hug the hose and ride it from wall to wall not far maybe 15 feet between walls at best and it would piss me off so one day I was close to a stream so I swung the boom over the stream about 3 feet in the air and shut off the pump and waited and sure enough he let go. The moral was he was soaked and never and I mean never hugged the hose again.

Once had a DIY'er call and schedule a saturday line pump on a hectic friday! When the operator got there there was a dumpster in the front yard,and a pile of broken up concrete in the back yard..." When the operator tried to explain,the customer said he thought that when it was hard it was concrete, and when it was wet it was cement! And we did say" concrete pumping", didn't we??

so when my old boss didnt  have any pump work he would throw me on a mixer  (this didnt happen too often) so i take this load, 10 yds out to this DIYer and i get there and i see a little piece of sidewalk and some driveway formed up and ready to go, so DIY guy walks up and says hey hows everything look? i say looks good where do you want to start, he says i dunno wheres the smoothers at, i say huh, he says yeah you know the guys who smooth it out,didnt they come with you? doesnt the supplier supply the smoothers?

I delt with alot of crews paid by the day. Anyone that worked around Cocoa Beach  knew this crew. Was on a pour when an arguement broke out about the days wage. They wanted 150 each the super said 120. After alot of arguing they shut up and kept pumping. 300 yards into a 400 yard pour, the crew walked off the job. Had plummers office people rebar guys, anyone the super could get to help pour. 30 min later the crew returned, continued pouring and started finishing.

Asked if they got it settled, was told yes but getting 200 each now.

a diy'er ordered 10cyds of mudd on a fri morning,10:30 driver knocks on door, mans wife told him to pour it on the concrete driveway and her hubby would put it where he wanted when he gets home at 5:30. did not. 

On the job at residential foundation with the homeowner (husband and wife) onsite to observe the pump and concrete placement.  When the wall was finished, I pulled the boom down to suck a ball back in the day when I would lay the hose down, unclamp and flip the reducer up to stuff the ball in.  Flipped the reducer up, stuffed the ball in and began sucking the ball slowly but forgot to put the pump in reverse.  'Pooooooff!' and the ball goes across the street.

And I walk after it like "I meant to do that."
