My forearms are getting the majority of the burn.

Im lucky there is a crew of 4 of us and I guess this many 5/8 sheets isn’t ordered too often in 1 day.

I rarely spec that much. Usually all ceilings are 5/8s and walls are 1/2.

The larger estates the we do are all 5/8s walls and ceilings. My drywall guys aren’t usually too happy about that during the install though.

That’s what it’s been so far, we were stocking an office building.

It's crazy that extra 1/8" adds so much weight.

I would’ve been fine if it was just 1/2 inch lol
 
Couldnt quite get the last 150 sheets delivered, the truck blew an airline trying to do a 3 point turn (then the engine started acting odd). Had to get it towed Image1551224979.178510.jpg

Luckily we drive separate, the towing service was backed up a few hours due to this weather!

Stocking 450 sheets of 5/8 drywall today... not fun

The boom will get it close to the door, then we have to stock it wherever they want it in the building by hand.[/QUOTE]

Sorry man, that had to suck.

I don't think we've ever used 1/2"... 5/8" Fire-X for everything. Shit is heavy... especially when its 10 or 12'

If you do that for long you will be able to get rid of your floor jack and just pick your Jeep up by hand

Been pulling in wire for the ac units on the building I’m at. Size 4/0. It’s nice because the lift does all the work haha there was only 2 pulls I did by hand but not bad.

My uncle was a meter reader for ComEd in the inner city of Chicago for years before moving up. He said the entire time he never had an issue with a dog and the only thing that ever attacked him was a big mean Turkey lol

These things are very territorial. Everytime I go to this house they challenge me to a face off. The male started mating the female in front of my drivers door, as if to show me he was in charge. I was totally intimidated. hahaha

Now that's funny, visions of a turkey staring you down screaming who's your daddy while he's nailing his girlfriend, priceless..
