Merry Christmas, Shitter's Full
We live on a farm. There is no sewer system out here. Hell, we can't even get cable because the cable companies said it costs too much money to run lines. (Good for Directv's business). We have a septic tank. (Insert your own version of "Git R Dun" in here) Anyway, our septic tank needed to be emptied yesterday. What is normally a (tops) two hour job, turned into an all day event from 8am to 3pm.
As the Roto Rooter guys showed up, the driver decided to back into the yard (which has become swamp-like due to the 60 degree temperatures melting the tons of snow we had on Valentine's Day). Everything is muddy. He got the truck stuck- sideways in the driveway.
The truck got stuck, and when the bossman showed up, he thought he could pull the tanker truck out with his pickup.
The result?
A tanker truck lodged in mud with a broken axle, and everyone standing around staring at it. While the bossman ran around trying to figure out what to do, the guys got to work. Six guys total, three of them were Mexican workers on their first day of work.
Mark used to do this exact job with his grandfather when he was in high school. I did as a good photojournalist would do- I taped it. In the horrid conditions, I stood outside with my neighbor and taped some of their handy work. This is a video of me talking to Mark on the phone. Watch how the workers taunt me. As always (and thankfully this time) the quality is crap. HA! I'm so funny. Bon appétit!
Eventually a HUGE tow truck came to remove the crap truck from my driveway, and life as we know continues.
