These are familiar sights in the Pacific NW. I once worked a layup line in a plywood mill for a few months. It's too much like work. My wife was a raiman operator for 10 years in a plywood mill (a raiman is a machine that punches out defects in veneer and replaces with those little football shaped plugs.)

Nice piccies, Big Mike.

Great pics Mike.... I work in an office these days and consequently my job is too boring to be of interest

Great pics, Mike, thanks for taking us along to your workplace.

Not nearly as exciting... but my 2AM days are mostly in the past now! (I'm retired from that career and into my second one now. Still have to eat... and buy kilts... and motorcycles... sigh...)

Sometimes it amazes me they actually PAY me to do this stuff...

And of course, I know this picture actually belongs on the "Kilt DON'Ts" page...

Wow, I thought I had a hard job. I change and repair semi truck, dump truck and tractor tires. I do auto tires too, rarely. I drive a big service truck equipped with a boom arm for changing huge tires when I'm not in the shop.

I retired as an instrument tech in a big chemical plant. My main job when I retired was calibrating, and maintaining pollution control analyzers on waste water streams leaving the plant. I also maintained control control valves, worked on Fisher/Rosemount PROVOX control systems as well as just about every kind of transmitter from old Foxboro pneumatic DP cells up to nuclear levels and density meters.

Kilt or Camera...hmmm. not a hard decision! I work on bank equipment. Can't wear a kilt in America, but anywhere else in the world, My company says Sure. Too distracting in America. What would the ladies think when I had to climb a ladder?
