I bought some new tires

Brent Zappe · Jul 3, 2014

It is not a every day thing to buy a set of new tires for my project. As I sat down for lunch at work I called M.E.Miller tires and place an order with them on a set of four new tires for my skid steer loader. This is the first time I have ever order tires back east. I mostly buy them in my home town and yes I have to educate all the tire sale persons on what a tractor tire is. They useally do not know what the beans there selling (L.O.L). After I called them and yes order my tires every body in the lunch room was not saying much but looking shocked. What we have a custodian who has a skid steer loader? I am a custodain at work and a big gardener on my other time I am off of work. This is a reall treat for me I finally get my tires for my skid steer loader. Happy Fouth of july to me.

Been following your story. Can't wait to see it done!

I will never understand why people think that a custodian should only be able to push a broom, and not be smart enough to do anything else. Heck, today many custodians, or "sanitation engineers" are smarter than the CEOs.

Your loader is looking new. I would bet your lunch mates wouldn't know how to remove the rims and the old tires. Then paint everything like new. I'm the only resident in the area that has a Garden tractor and a Troy Bilt tiller. I had over 30 of those tillers. I bought them when they needed some repair work. I paid $100.00 for this tiller in 2006. I sold the Tecumseh engine for $65.00. Hal

been there done that when i worked for a machinery dealer a corn head foe a chopper came up missing
i told the boss i think it was transferred to another dealer he made some dumb azz remark about the people i working here can"t tell the difference between junk and new stuff.
he had a junker cutting up old junk there at the time.
turned out I was right he finally went to office to go thru his records
lots of times guys doing the grunt work knew about what was happening than management.
then there was the time they sent out with an auger when the farmer bought an elevator .
farmer said how an i going to unload hay bales with that?

I work with some kids that are collage kids. I tell them to not quit keep going. An education is very important. Mostly what woke them up was that I own Equipment and I did buy my income on a custodian salary.
