Only you guys could appreciate this...

As some of you know, I started a new job this week. Back to working construction jobsites. Loving the new gig.
Found myself on a job last week that had four of us, and all of us are loaded heavily with our own tools (I have an arsenal of DeWalt stuff - and so did the other guys).
Anybody that has worked on a jobsite knows, when you need a specific tool and there is one laying there, you grab it - whether it's yours or not - if something needs done immediately (We had about 1600#'s of steel 12' up, and 3 guys holding it).
So, seeing as I just re-tooled on things like batteries (almost $100 each x5) I figured I needed to mark MY stuff.
So, today while drinking beer I did this...

Oh, and the last pic is one of the projects I was working hanging doors - for reference, the guy in the pic is 6' tall - these things were MASSIVE!

Kinda the same concept as how the eyes got painted on my boat, only on a smaller scale.

congrats on the gig. I know that has to be nice to get the monkey off your back and get your head right.
Well...... it might take more than that to get your head right :sifone: LOL

Thanks!!
The new gig is awesome.
I'm not making a huge amount, but I'm still living well. And, after 7-8 years working corporate, I feel like a MAN again, and I feel back in my element.
Phuck the money, it's about being happy in what you're doing. And I'm coming home sore everyday and looking forward to a rub-down of Icy-Hot, but I'm feeling satisfaction again for the first time in almost 10 years.

As far as the tools...
There are some items I just sprayed with the Lime-green, but if it was large enough it got the eyes.

Todays project was a stair rail.
Had to send a few sections back to fabrication for re-work.

Congrats, Tim!

Guy's... You ain't gonna believe this chit...

After three weeks "in training" and riding with another guy, they sent me on my own for three days, and then...

I got a promotion to installation Mgr.:sifone: I still have a chithouse full of tools in the Avalanche, but should only need to use them rarely.
Most of my day is now spent behind a computer and on the phone in the A/C during this Arizona summer that is starting to hit.
This ROCKS!

Congrats again Tim!

You are getting a bit old (not Sean old) to be outside in the heat !:cheers2:

 

[tomcei]

They must recognize talent when they see it

 

[Bobcat]

I can only vouch for KW, but when people get somebody honest and hard working they almost sh*t themselves with glee. Now if he'd just quit smoking !:sifone:

 

[JAIME]
