I have been working for my city part time for a couple months. I just hired on as a full time employee.. Monday was the first day. I am in Waste water management, maintainance division. On Day 1, I get 8 hours/ month sick pay, 8 hours/month personal time, 13 paid holidays, free health ins. (Me only), they open a 401k and put in 4 % even if I dont contribute, Boot money, I got 5 new pairs of Carhart pants today, a free "City Nurse" to go to for routine issues,, and the freedom to be 'Myself' with NO-ONE breathing down my neck. an hour for breakfast, and an hour for lunch. In my 8 and a half hour day, I may work up to 3 hours.. What The Hell????? I have never had this.. 24 years in trucking and truck repair, working my A$$ off every day, at the least 8 hours of hard labor. I have my own "Tooled up" service truck and a city credit card to buy up to $999.00 worth of stuff, as needed.. I dont make a lot per hour, but I have almost no stress, or responsibilities.. Oh yeah, and the 11 guy's I work with are all good guys to work with.... Where the Hell am I ????

Popular Post Joey Mack Posted November 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2022 One thing I dont miss is truck owners that think I am supposed to keep my rate's low because Biden Diesel hit 6 bucks a gallon.. and I'm supposed to fix the truck as good as if it was at the dealership, at $60/hr. Meanwhile I run a diesel svc. truck, and have insurance, tool cost, shop supplies, sometimes an employee, and well you know the rest..... jojo 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/69424-shop-talk/page/44/#findComment-515391 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Mack Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Thanks Paul... Here in the states, getting a good health care program is difficult and expensive. We also have 401-k retirement plans as well.. I really feel good about my decision, no B.S. !! I can still do truck work on the side, but to be honest, I have enjoyed the break from heavy duty truck work.. I have said before, that I would rather just build engines, and MACK transmissions in my shop for side money.. and lately i have re-built Engine harness's.. That is a needed repair now aday's. Folk's can ship me the harness and any spare harness's, for parts, and I can inspect them, repair them and OHM them out to check for 'shorts'.. Then, ship 'em back.. You may have seen my post about one that I finished last week.. My heart is always with trucks and truckers, and truck mechanic's.. Take care Mr. Paul...

Joey Mack Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Thanks Bob... Did you read my posts about the benefits that start on 'Day 1'? I had no idea this sh!t existed.. anyway, i feel good and blessed.. My wife says I am a different person, since I dont deal with all the B.S. from my truck service business..

tjc transport Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 the google security certificate expired saturday night. and without the google security bs, no websites work. even websites that have been around 12 years longer than google has been around because it is all about the almighty dollar, and google owns the interwebs. 2 Quote when you are up to your armpits in alligators, it is hard to remember you only came in to drain the swamp..

Joey Mack Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Yes Paul, it is expensive here, unless you are living on welfare (gov. Money), or just to sorry to work. Then it's free. And if you walk in to our country illegally, you will get free healthcare, and transportation to a free place to live. Paid for by tax dollars... Any way,. How's Mrs. Mack doin?
