I’ll belive it, I ran a skip loader when I was 9 loading sand into my fathers trucks.

He started teaching me to use power tools when i was 4. When I was 8 I taught myself to weld and channeled a 32 5 wiondow coupe and built a 3/8 3/8 flathead for it for the 16 year old numb nuts kid across the street.

Drove a flathead rail at Santa Ana when i was 12.

Kids today are not only lazy but idiots with no work ethic.

My thinking is that I have no problem with this, except for the operator not being able to wear a seat belt. One false move and he will be pitched to the ground, possibly in the path of one of the wheels. But there’s probably a lot of kids that would like to have that job.
