Dang, you're up early.

;D ;D ;D ;D   Kind of a night owl.

Me too. A night owl with a nest in a jail.

Isn't that your part-time/summer gig?  Or should I be giving you a "hard time" about this?   ;)
I'm close to full time during summer. 3 12s comes to 36 hours a week. They don't want me to work over 40; but sometimes I do. I do transports, too.

Cool!  Beats heck out of my old gig painting barns!

Uff! Guessing that got scary. My worst gig was shoveling up seawead with a ptch fork into a front end loader for a few months. Gets a little rank after being out of water for a few days.

Yep, that would stink!  I spent several summers working for a resort/campground.  Cleaned the big fish cleaning house, public bathrooms & showers.  Some smelly experiences there, too...   especially when some drunk would go #2 in the shower.   ::)

Hey, that sounds like jail!

Cleaning calf pens in the spring as they thaw out. Awful in my book, and I worked I. sewers for w7 years ;D

Calf pens seem  to be a pain all year; but spring must be heck. Frozen pie everywhere. When I was a kid, I alway wanted to be a sewer worker. I knew every inch of S. Mwaukee sewer. Ran around down there all the time. I've since changed my career focus. ;)

Ed Norton, is that you?  ;)

The big cities sewers both sanitary and storm are kind of cool and fun to be in. Lots of history with those and the amount of traveling through them you can do is amazing!

Best way to travel. The tubes we snuck into were so big, we rode our bikes around trying to hold flashlights. Of course, kids never think "hmm, big tube=much water."  Neat to see how the older parts of town had brick and such.

Yes in the storm sewers a quarter inch of rain could equal 3 feet of water at the end point of those tubes.

The city of Minneapolis has a small boat with a trolling motor for the sanitary sewer or just certain areas. Old brick and built by hand. Dug by hand which is amazing.

The river towns have some really old sewer structures. Man the work it took to build them. I know because to rebuild them is terrible ;D

Best way to travel. The tubes we snuck into were so big, we rode our bikes around trying to hold flashlights. Of course, kids never think "hmm, big tube=much water."  Neat to see how the older parts of town had brick and such.

Yes in the storm sewers a quarter inch of rain could equal 3 feet of water at the end point of those tubes.

The city of Minneapolis has a small boat with a trolling motor for the sanitary sewer or just certain areas. Old brick and built by hand. Dug by hand which is amazing.

The river towns have some really old sewer structures. Man the work it took to build them. I know because to rebuild them is terrible ;D

If we ever get a chance to break brew, I'd love to hear where you even start replacing that kind of stuff.
If I agreed with you we'd both be wrong.
