general hello

Post #1 by zng109 » Fri Sep 30, 2011 10:55 am

Right I do not own any plant, its all lease from JCB, so as a tool hire supervisor I have micros, 1.5 ton machines high lift thwaites dumpers and the newsons.
It never ceases to amaze me the knocks and scratches and bits "that just fell off" that my clients repot.
or the idiot that parked on top of a pile of agrigate and undermined the vehical which ended up on its side :shock:
so I am not a driver or owner just a greese monkey, and probably not the best one at that :)
so its just a general hello and who I am
why buy when you can hire?

yep and to top it, I have just had an 8014 dump its coolant on someones drive :cry:
however the operator wants to go fishing this end as opposed to digging footings, so I will exchange on monday, have a look at it and if necessary call the jcb boys
