Mudslinger comes from something my Dad said when I was loading hoses one time" You dont need to be slinging that mud all over the truck"! Then it was "Be careful,Mudslinger" |

It started with my buddy, we had 1/8 scale r/c gas cars. He'd come over with something bigger/better and ask WANNADRAG? Then with my muscle cars, it carried over ,as in do you WANNADRAG.And finally about 10 years ago I,m on a job and got into a argument with a finisher,and told him "go ahead and hit me so I can drag you like a hose(concrete) WANNADRAG. |

I'm the smallest guy at my shop, and I started out as a mechanic. My buddy Scott came in one day and started yelling for me, so I answered. He couldn't figure out where I was, until I popped one of my arms out the side of the truck frame, because I was crammed down inside there, literally in the middle of the truck. He started laughing and said, "Man thats funny, your trapped in there like a Pump Monkey." The name just stuck with me ever since. |

I guess it would only be fair to tell you mine right? For those of you who don't know (some do) it was from when I worked in Cali and there were two Ricks. I happened to come down off my pump one day and tore the minicus. I went out for surgery (twice) and when I came back I was Knee Rick |

haha, yea I guess thats worth mentioning Mud. Our 58 meter guy is the grandpa of the shop. I think he's been with the company for something like 15 years or so. Anywho, he's one of those guys guys that comes in Monday morning already covered in grease and dirt. A real rugged type of dude. One day he asked me why I was washing my hands after only doing a simple oil change, I told him "so I don't end up looking like you, like a damn Swamp Donkey." He chuckled and the name spread around the shop and everyone thought it was funny as well as true, so now it is his alias, among other nicknames. |

Slinger | 09-29-2008 | reply profile send pm notify |
The company I used to drive gravel truck for was called slinger service. My name was written on the door (not my idea ) so everyone started calling me Jim Slinger then eventually just slinger. I guess the good thing was that they all thought that was my actual last name, so when the weekend came along I was left alone. Couldn't find me in the book. |

I was training on an old Brigadere General, It had no passenger seat the boss followed in his picu-up. When we got to the job he ask why I opened the door every time I stopped? I expained thats the only way I can put the clutch in and not hit the stearing wheel. Problem is, More people know me as "TOOTALL" than my real mane. |

Garneaux is a miss spelling of my families original name before they came to the states back in the 1700s. it should be gardoux I spelled it wrong as a kid and no one corrected me for a couple of years so I just kept using it. if nothing its unique.
