You need to think very seriously about what you choose to do. You may do it the rest of your life. That's at least 8 hours of every day of the week and sometimes on weekends, every month, and every year for years.....rain or shine all day long. When you get into something and get good at it you make more money......a lot of times too much money to start over doing something else (cause you have that house you mentioned to pay for, and a wife and some kids, and car payments) so you're locked in.

There would be a guy in a 5 cubic yard track loader going after it loading us.......my last load was at last light some 12 hours later.

No telling how many hundred buckets of dirt he dug that day just to get up the next day and do it all over again. Gotta get old. At least hauling I had some varaibility....TRAFFIC!!!!!. My 2c. Mark
