Work nightmare

20 hours overtime in an economy where jobs are really tough to find and you're mad?

No ****. I've put in PLENTY of 60 hour weeks. This was when I was working for Motorola, installing E911 upgrades, and radio / telco gear on mountaintops.

Sun, rain, wind, snow, sleet, bugs, mosquitos the size of of a P-47 Thunderbolt. Stuck in mud, sand, snow, ice. Put on chains in same. Winch? Are you SHITTING me? Hell, we didn't even get a come - a - long, unless I brought my OWN

Just so we know where I'm coming from, before my days with Motorola, I spent some 12 years or so doing HVAC / R service, maintenance and installs.

This was my second service truck, bought used. I built the vise mount, the ladder rack, and most of the work on the bulkhead separator. The vise unplugs, "hitch receiver style" and you can put a pipe vise on there instead. I carried "a lot of crap" in that truck. I scrapped out a car, and added all the leafs to the rear springs.
