Title: What do you see outside your work area?
Post by: KDX on November 28, 2012, 04:52:04 AM
I borrowed this idea from another forum I belong to. Post a pic of what you see outside your immediate work area. For those of us who haven't traveled much, it can be an interesting thread.

No worries, I love the cold!  The only part that bugs me is my bald head.  But I have a healthy supply of stocking caps for that. 

I drive a frozen foods truck, and my route is in remote areas on the western side of the state where it's usually around 0 to 10 degrees this time of year, and I am constantly in and out of a freezer(the truck) that is -25 to -30 degrees F.  Makes even -9 feel warm. 

What kind of hours do you work Grant?

That looks cool.  I'm sure you don't agree, being around it all the time must make it boring!

I'm preparing to start my 3rd day down here, I should be done and home by about 11pm.  So that's another 12.5 hours of work left, 3 days without seeing the fam.  Next week it's 5 in a row away from home.

There are no regs here. I give the boys in heavy equipment the right of way. My Jeep is tough but not that tough. Fortunately around here it's considered quick and agile, while in regular traffic it's seen as a lumbering beast.

I drive in ports almost every day and you get used to it.

I only go on ships when they are securely tied to the dock.  While it might be interesting to go somewhere with these ships once or twice, I imagine it would get old fast.

I spent a night on one once. It was a bulk carrier and they gave me a guest cabin with two bunk beds (I was the only one using it) and its own private head. It wasn't bad at all, but again it was tied to something solid!

I have elk, deer, and turkeys on my route too.  No bobcats, but I've seen Mountain lion tracks and I see huge bighorn sheep all the time.  They stand in the middle of the road and don't move.  At all.  I've gotten out of my truck and waved and yelled but they just kind of look at me.  You almost have to bump them with your bumper to move them.

N_N_R, love your view, reminds me of here.

If I looked outside, I'd be sad. Because I'd be looking at a beautiful mountain about 20 miles away, that right now has snow so pure it glitters above the tree line. And a lovely forest of mostly pine, spruce, ash and birch from the base. Sometimes that tip is in the clouds, which often look like they are carved from grey stone, and put my mind to Olympus or Asgard or Ama. And right now it reflects the sunset and turns into a beautiful fairyscape of pinks and oranges for a few minutes every day, and is a gleaming beacon under the full moon and against a black sky filled with stars. And that between me and it are farms and forest and a couple of decent ponds and rivers and I really would much rather be out there, any day of the week.

Then I turn around and look out the other window at the parking lot we share with the old folks home and I see my little toy truck that the bank still owns. And has an alumni sticker on it for my ala mater.

And if I go outside, and walk around the building, I can see the satellite campus of my old college. The college that axed my degree as being too generic and replaced it with watered down material in two degrees that have higher completion levels and thus bring in more money while turning out kids who can't do what I can and they can't get jobs either without moving away. The college that raised tuition over 30% one year and 15% the next because it was buying that satellite campus.

So I don't go around the building. Or look out the window.

Whole Hungary is buried under snow. Though it's only 15+ centimeters (~7 inches for you imperial style folks), the road maintenance service simply cannot keep up. I live about 20 kilometers from my workplace, and it took me two hours. On highway. :facepalm: And the same happens every damn time when some snow decides to fall...

I'll bet the multitools came in handy in the aftermath of hurricane sandy.

Do you work in different ports?

I'm a private contractor specializing in cargo surveying.  I go to all the different ports and train yards, warehouses, shipyards, and pretty well anywhere cargo changes hands or falls down....

Nope, I review the condition of the cargo, not the contents.  :D

St. Joseph, Michigan is located in my sales territory.  I often drive by the shores of Lake Michigan so take in the sights.   On a typical day the north pier looks like this

Lately we've had a lot of high winds and frigid temperatures which resulted in the smaller light house getting covered in ice.

And and all of the above!

I have a mixed problem right now.  I'm in the office at the moment and there's only one small window I can see from my desk, and it's almost completely obscured by a stairwell just outside so I really can't see anything through it.

Of course, since all there is to see outside is a bleak parking lot covered in snow and ice I think not being able to see isn't such a bad thing.

It's certainly not the prettiest part of the river but it is the fastest flowing and gets really busy in the summer.
