two bad shoulders
you will regret the damage you have done to your shoulders. between using a hand-operated post-hole digger, and stacking an average of three to five tons of 60 lb boxes a shift for three years in a munitions plant for the USMC, mine are pretty much shot. it is a constant pain, only alleviated by standing in a hot shower or reclining with a big ice pack. :frown:

I stacked 3000 15-18 pound boxes or more a shift for 2 years. 30-35 pallets. 20-25 boxes a minute. It bothered my wrist more than my shoulders. But we used the momentum of the box coming down the conveyor to toss them onto the pallets. So no real lifting most of the time.

:tumbleweed:mornin campers...alrighty,a day off from work,so time to get to work and deal with chores and such...got the veg terp tea to apply,and cleanup from making it...then a trip to the bike shop,took a wheel in for truing but turns out there's a broken spoke so i need to take some of the matching brass nipples down so they can fix it...
and maybe wash some pots today...there's around 30ish right now,not many...probably not though due to crushing laziness...
