pretty sure someone is buying an entire pallet of happy frog today...but that's easy since it will be a job for the forklift and not my forked up back...

I hand watered my vert rooms by hand for 7-8 years. When they were all going it was 35-50 gallons a day for veg and flower. All done with 5 gallon buckets. Hand mixed every day.

:toohot::dance013: that was a day...another bonus today though...and i did have to help load a pallet of coco loco by hand since i'm still not good enough with the forklift to load into a truck...around the lot,sure...
at least there were youngsters to help...but they wanted to nove 2 bags at a time....rotten children 30+ years younger!
I use to run a stand up fork lift. That thing could turn on a dime. But at high speed it would lift the wheels on the left side. The battery was on the right side so it didn't lift on that side.

I shut down the back half of the plant one day when the forklift drivers wouldn't pick up the left over supplies from first shift. I had 40 minutes to get their crap out and move a bunch of machines around. If that was not done in time 20-22 people would be standing around.

The warehouse said I had to give them 2 hours notice and wouldn't pick up the left over supplies. I could not set up the line with that stuff there. So I took it and blocked the main path to the back of the plant shutting down half the plant. They picked it up and the warehouse supervisor called the plant manager. Dumb mistake on his part. After that I had priority given by the plant manager.

This plant had 11 production lines plus 3 additional mixing areas. That supervisor was pissed at me for a long time after getting his ass chewed.

Showed up to work today aftefr a bike ride. Turkey in the oven at 350. 25 lbs of corned beef boiling for 3 more hours. Pretty sure my coworker left it so I could cook myself on my shift instead of morning like he is supposed to. Then the vent over the stove quit working. At least it was only 80 degrees outside and we were slow so I could escape the sauna.

Worse part of cooking is that hot assed kitchen on a hot day.

in two days i think i moved 2 tons of stuff by hand..
You know I give you shit about lifting those bags which are harder than bundles of shingles to me. I am short so when I pick up a bundle I stand down slope from the stack. Most times that puts the bundle just above my knees at the lowest.

So not as bad as a tall person bending all the way down to their calves or ankles to pick up a bag. That would kind of suck. Add to that you are ugly and your life just kind sucks really bad at that point.
