We Finished a Big Job today ,
Many thousand feet of cable run , so far in fact we had to remote out every thing

Remote displays

Traffic lights
Inter com , etc
For the Last 3 days I have been dealing with Electricians to run the conduit and Pull the wire ,
I Hung and Hooked up All this and it Worked !!

4 other guys have been dealing with Moving the truck scale , I haven't been paying Much Attention to what was going on Out side because I had Plenty to deal with as it was ,
They have been Borrowing tools and Jacks , etc,,,

This After noon After I Got every thing Else finished I went out there ,
they were Standing around TALKING about what to do ,
I stood there for a sec then started Looking around , walked back over , my Boss asked Well what do YOU Think ?
I said do you want me to Fix it ??
He said yeah , what can I do to help ??
You and You take Off the cover plates,
You Go get the wrenches ,
you go get the test truck ,
I'll grab the Straps and Jack , Move !!

Every body Moved except ,,,

My boss and another dude were Who i sad go take care of the cover Plates ,
other dude said , now wait a sec Brother , what are you going to do ??

My boss grabbed him by the shoulder spun him around , and said , Shut up and do what he says , You DON'T want to piss him OFF !!

I just stoood there for a sec with a grin on My face .

We Fixed the scale in 2 hrs
