Thats good Marcus, I see alot of ya hoo stuff said. I agree good call ! But if it were me and i read no mention of this, What about offering an alternative. What about drag line, how far was it away from a good area. How bout fixen the road alittle or something. Was there or wasnt there an alternative? If there wasnt, Then good call again!(Real Trucks dont have spark plugs)

The jobsite is about a 40 min drive from where I am located. I will stop by and photo the scene next time I head over to Reno to give a good perspective of what I am talking about. The road looked like a snow and ice covered (unpaved) logging road. The job was a 1/4 mile off the main road. This job should have been put off till April.I do have pictures of a mixer stuck a couple weeks prior to this job in the same neck of the woods and same road conditions. I need to scan them first and then post them. They were photographed with one of the cop in the box throwaway camaras the insurance company has us carry in our vehicles. stay tuned....

Glad to hear that Bob! http://www.pumpoperators.com/brian/ I love to pump concrete. It is in my blood. I will do whatever it takes to do the job right and safely! Almost 20yrs under my belt and still learning.This message was edited by Todd on 2-16-06 @ 1:35 PM
