CAT- Dig It said: (quoted from post at 14:14:20 09/17/09) One of my instructors at school thinks I should join Local 181 here in Ohio. A union for equipment operators, in case you didn't know.

All the guys appreciated this...we'd seen some of the 'cat drivers' that looked to have been sent from a tavern.
