Like they say........truck drivers are born, not made.
That has to be one of the most accurate sayings ever! Im no pro joe blow truck either, but ive seen guys that shouldnt be allowed in a civic, drive super b's. And the truck drivers they hire in the oil patch? Wow, just wow.

Same for equipment operators, you have to wonder how some ever survive.......
No, I shouldnt be allowed in a civic cause im 6'3 235 lbs haha.
I was fortunate that I grew up on a farm, learned how to operate equipment, drive ... well anything with wheels (usually farmer fixed stuff too!) and fix pretty much anything that can break. I have my moments on the road just like everyone else, but I sure have them alot less then most!
Luckily I dont have much experience with other equipment operators. I have a solo business, and usually Im in there digging before any other equipment is around. I cant see their mistakes, and they cant see mine
I had it easy when I was a kid compared to my dad, and he had it easy compared to his dad, and my other grandfather. Those old boys knew how to put in a days work. Im very proud to have picked up work ethics from both of my grandpa's.
My one grandfather was a hell of an interesting guy. He came right from russia and snuck over to Canada. He went through alot of torture, and other horrible crap I dont even know. That made him a hell of a strong, tough man, and he implemented those qualities into his work ethics. He wasnt a large man either, but he took sh17 from no one, and if they didnt back down, he would get his rifle to show them he was serious!
