With me firing the kid last week and the tractor guy on vacation I have been wide open all day, I worked on mowers to help keep things rolling while the mower guy worked on a Gator rewire job. The boss is impressed with me getting out there and helping. I can see it's going to be a long 2 weeks while the tractor mechanic is on vacation.

So who is doing tractors? Though the guy you vired was the lawnmower guy.

I thought I had all the lumber for the shed/shop. I still got about 200 boards to cut. No logs , plentt of tres down from the clearing we did. Got to put pillow blocks under the flatbed. With 640# had an occasional tire rub.
Payday yea all day shopping

The good mower guy I have can work on tractors and he does to some extent. The kid I hired was going to be the main mower repair person and then the good mower guy was going to work on tractors more since it pays better. Not a ton of tractor work right now, good thing since the main tech is on vacation.

Yay we get paid for living another month!!

got me some new tires mounted on some wheels ive had for a while. mmmmm they look good. Also got an extension exhaust pipe, so I can dump the exhaust under the truck bed, and not the passanger seat. I dont like texas inspection laws. I liked GA stuff better, at least there they just ran a test.
