Let me begin by saying if the boss happens to get wind of this thread then it is all a lie.
The morning began by waking my son up so he could go to work with me. It was his first "real" day of the rest of his life. Work starts today and continues for the next 40 or maybe 50 years. That was an up.
Then the boss called early and told me to put the mower on the tractor and pick up the chipper up the coast. Cool, no problemo. Mission accomplished with time to spare. Another up.
Then Javier fueled his saw with bar oil, a minor mistake anyone can make. Then the boss was mowing with the Seppi mower and broke a pair of mounting lugs off the drum. I had to meet him at the mechanic's shop so the lugs could be welded back on. That cost money. Then I was filling my piggyback can with Stihl Bio Plus but put it in the mix side with mix already in it. At over $20.00/gallon I wasted ten dollars of the boss's money. Then the biggie, I left the pintle hook on the chipper by mistake in the morning and someone stole it. That was a $120.00 mistake that is all my fault. I have already ordered a replacement shank but I'll see what kind of pintle hook we want. Dang stupid of me. Lots of downs.
