Whelp, separating AL plate from turnings is NOT gonna be my fave job there. Its in my hair, went through my gloves, down my shirt, in my pant cuffs and boots.
Monday, still did my normal scrap run, only (and lets see, its because I got a 9 to 5 I'm thinking because it never ran that late before!) I didn't get home until 4:55 AM after leaving at 8 pm Monday night. Had to go offload and go back to the first part of my run which had stuff out that wasn't there the first drive by at night. Beat the garbage man by 07 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've been coming home and either breaking down or looking for scrap. My new skin color is DIRTY!!!!!
Does anyone know how many mountains of AL it takes to make one bail? Lemme tell ya, I lost count.
I've done everything except separate copper/brass on that machine, another guy does that. I'm now already kinda bopping around where needed, as needed. I'm checking people in/writing tickets, bailing AL and cardboard and cans, helping outside loading the mountains of steel from there for the truck to take away and separating everything that comes in on the scales inside to their respective areas.
Every muscle, bone, tendon, nerve and hair on my body aches but folks....I'M HAVING A BLAST AND LOVING IT!!!!!!!!!!
