  1. Big storm on the way

    For those of you getting snow down south that normally don't there is some work to be found. Concrete companies have forms made and concrete ready to be pumped, but they are full of snow. If it does not melt fast enough you can melt the snow with the steam or how water. I know this because I have spent a night or two doing this from a late snow fall. Its not the best work as you are having to watch you step and it can get boring. Just another way to make some winter $$.
  2. I have one customer that I am allowed to use their water, but for every other customer I bring water to site. Every contractor that I know carries water with them to site and fills up at the city bulk water fills. The one customer that I do take water from I only do if I run out, or they are in a hurry and I don't have time to fill before I get there. Having a water tank means you can work anytime any where. When the temperature drops up here, outside taps don't exactly work any more. Although in warmer climates I am sure you don't have to worry about that too much. Just my 2 cents Benjamin
