Man, what a cool job....not today

#1 Post by Adam Wright »

I hear that a lot from guys when they see what I do. Today was not one of those days where it was fun.
Truck arrived in 20 degree weather (don't let the sunshine fool you), his hydraulic lines were frozen and he managed to wreck one of the cars when loading it. After some crazy maneuvers involving borrowed forklifts, plywood, and two winches we got the cars off, but it was a miserable day.

So as much as I love my job, and it is normally very cool, today it was about as ugly as a box of frogs.

Imagine the looks that truck got enroute to your place. I'm sure many pics were taken.

So where did these come from? I think you mentioned Georgia?
