I wouldn't fancy being up here, but the views must be fantastic!

Picture showing the dash of the crane operator cab. The display on the clock says 09:12, it was 08:12

The clock in the crane taunts me. It's an hour off due to daylight savings time changes and you can't change it without a day code from Liebherr (the clock is tied to data recordation in the crane's version of a psuedo-blackbox)...

a man is crying and saying `` i 'm tired boss '' in a dark room . Alt: Gif from movie of a character saying "I'm tired boss"

I'm so tired.. I take off for MFF and then as soon as I get back, no easing back into things, immediately back in the shit...

POV view of the operating seat of a Broderson IC-400, 25ton, carry deck crane. Shows a large screen, 2 joysticks, and 3 button panels

Fanciest carry deck I've ever been in... Jeez.

It was super annoying with the transmission and steering mode controls though. Other than that, a really nice operating machine. Shame it's a rental and not in our fleet, oh well

I might not be heavy equipment, but I could still make your day rise 😉

Got my wood split and stacked thanks to help from a friend and the loan of a splitter. Sure is handy to have a crane to move things around! #CraneLife

Staring into the sun for half the day while working...

Saw this sandhill crane looking for lunch in the parking lot. #birds #cranelife

I missed the calling of climbing into trees with a chain saw and tactically dropping massive branches.

Feral tiger Bob wearing a normal hi-vis vest that is too big for him and my hardhat while holding on and hanging from some steel latticework.

Just Hang In There for this Tiger Tuesday. I have to survive on this job for another 2 weeks...

Drawn by the awesome @felisrandomis.bsky.social as similar to those "Hang in there" cat posters! Fitting for today...

Neon line doodle of a feral tiger Bob drawn by Felis. Absolute gremlin energy. It's adorable and I love it

Uhg, yesterday was so busy and sucked. I didn't get home til 9. Actually fell asleep during a Duolingo lesson at 930... I didn't even realize it was Tuesday...

Here's a belated Tiger Tuesday pic, a little one by @felisrandomis.bsky.social that's super cute

Crane Pallet Bins are the ultimate in pallet lifting safety. Start by wrapping the items in steel. Four point lifting keeps it level. Get them in a double bin and fly two pallets at once to cut down on the lift cycles. ASME B30.20 certified.

Rectangle buckets have wide gates for fast and wide flows of concrete or rock. If you are pouring large slabs, why do it with a narrow gate? www.cranegear.net

If you are in safety in construction, you have no doubt watched this. Are you not seeing the known hazards here? Why are we not addressing this as an industry? We have the tools. #EHS #OSHA #constructionsafety #AGC #cranelife #rigginglife #safetyprofessionals #operatingengineers #liuna

Why doesn't OSHA enforce this rule? Bins and boxes that are not rated out number rated devices easily 3:1. It's a weak link. Crane, sling, hoist rope... all irrelevant ratings if that wood pallet fails.

Figures, have to work Saturday, I was hoping to have it off. Oh well.

A little communication, that's all I want. I arrive on site and learn that this is gonna be a super long day with a ton of picks and multiple setups in addition to the 2+ hour drive to and from site. I don't mind the work, but I would like to mentally prepare and make plans

#crane #cranelife #iuoe

I've been on site for almost 4 hours in this rendering plant operating a carrydeck and haven't set the first piece of this catwalk system yet... It's going to be a long day...

Brand new Tadano GT-1200XL-2 crane painted orange and grey

Made it back to Ohio in one piece! Was a nice trip if only just a little stressful trying to make appointment times with bridge monitors and escorts yesterday. That part was exhausting. It's an interesting looking beast but it drives nice

Morning!

It's gonna be a LONG day... I'm starting my morning heading to the port of Baltimore Maryland to get our company's new crane and then begin the trek back to Ohio! Got a playlist of podcasts ready for it though, let's do this.

What is up with my recent job sites and poor cell reception while having to sit and wait!? It's better than the site yesterday, but not by much

#cranelife #crane #operator #iuoe

Uhg, on site running a crane at a Facebook data center and sitting here waiting for site prep so I can set up and trucks to arrive to unload and set vaults. I normally don't mind the sitting and waiting part of my job, but the cell reception sucks out here

#CraneLife #Crane #Operator #IUOE

I thought today was going to be a short day at work and that I'd get to enjoy my weekend for once. Nope. Instead it's a somewhat stressful gig that was also more stuff than I was led to believe. Oh well, that's the crane rental life...

Blue skies and fair winds. I love early winter skies and clouds in Ohio.

#Liebherr #Crane #CraneLife #Ohio

I am worn out. Finally made it back to Ohio and checked into my hotel... The drive from Newark to the OH border was just brutal when you can only go 53mph. #cranelife #IUOE
