Learned how to weld on stick, then transitioned to mig and flux, finished with stick and oxy/plasma cutting. Although I didn't care for cutting
Message permalink: 704871869349625967
I struggle with mig lol, stick is what I learned on. Keep trying to feed the mig gun into my welds.

Seriously, guy didn't wanna drive the truck he was assigned. Popped the clutch in 1st with the parking break set. 3 ujoints, 2 yokes, snapped input. Dude still has a job.

I had a guy break the seal on a frozen load in South Cali, end up late for a multi stop load, shifted the load himself and the reefer broke down. Oh yeah, and all this happened while he turned his phone off and refused to contact me. After he got to the yard in CO, the company fired him and he ran up to WY. The truck then sat for 3 days in a random lot in the middle of denver
