I think last post on here for me was owner operator of a bobcat mini excavating company,well ended up getting bored and tired of chasing work and being under cut by hobby owners just looking for something too do so went running feller bunched for3 years but was to off and on.I then got offered a position being a utility operator which means now I run everything from skid steer to grader and everything in-between,i love it never on the same machine for more than a week and lots of times on on a job with 3or4 machines by my self,the owner really appreciates my abilities and treats ,pays and respects my opinion.plus most work is within half an hour from home,lovin it

I farm, do custom seeding/spraying/haying and combining, work at my friends ranch part time and in the winter I run a steam truck on a service rig. Family time and a full nights sleep are things of the past now lol. Hopefully will be buying the steam truck business after this winter
