gridloreBecause I now have tomorrow off. In fact, I'll be in the bunker until about 0800 Friday when the trucks head out. :)
Today's run to the back of nowhere went well. I listened to Judas Priest's Angel of Retribution on the trip down, and since I was heading south, I only had to deal with a little traffic. Finding the right entry to this place was a pain, and I met some cows, but eventually found the house.
Note to customer: You are having not one but two trucks massing about 13 tons loaded roll onto your brand-new driveway. While there, we are going to lower your five-ton containers using our wheeled three-ton hydraulic lifts. A few things are going to happen.
1. We are going to leave black marks all over the place. Can't be helped.
2. Because of the layout you designed, we are going to have to roll into your landscaping to drop the pods, reload Podzilla, and get out. Sorry about the four inch deep ruts.
3. Podzilla is loud. Deal. I'm not the one who decided to have the entire family over at the same time as two PODS drivers and a moving truck! Loudness will happen with multiple back-up alarms, our 20HP engines roaring, and movers shouting at each other.
*sigh*
Ah well, he got the pods, and I had an easy day. Tomorrow, I think I'll start laying out my future history.
