So a little about me...

I'm Jeff and I'm from Western Canada...the good part, Northern BC and Alberta. I'm just normal oilfield trash that got interested in blogging. Can't say I am the most prolific or timely, but if I have something to say I usually will...So anyway this is just a look through my eyes once in a while...I don't claim to be right, but I'll never be left.

Me I'm stupid,
It's all I ever wanted to be,

Shock me again and I'll say,
Anything you want me to"

Working , just plain working


So I am back working in BC, operating equipment. Went out to a job near Stewart Lake. Huge site (For me anyway), its 240m x 140m with at least a 15m fill on one end. Got 3 627 cat scrapers 2 D8s and 2 155 Komatsu's, I was running a 155, but now I am filling in for the foreman who went on vacation. The 155, what to tell? Well it was rough. Was stuck in a hard rock borrow pit and all I can say is that I felt really beat up at the end of the day. Leaving at 4:30am and walking back in the door around 8:00pm doesn't leave much time for socializing or rest.
