babadono Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Driving into work, thermometer in car said 82 degrees at 7:00am Jeesh! And its muggy. Got some sub tropical moisture coming in from Baja I think. Desert thunderstorms possible later today but probably further east than my area.

richieb Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Helping my friend install new 6ft. tall privacy fence around his auto body business/tow lot. Not sure how many linear feet we are doing but I do know I'm looking at $14K of supplies. I imagine we've put in around 100 yds. so far. 90-95 F is getting harder to deal with for this old man. I used to like working, riding bicycle, etc. in the blazing heat. Made me feel like I was really putting forth some effort. The older I get the less time I can work in heat and I hate that. Really puts things in perspective. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babadono Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 @richieb and all us other old farts remember to stay HYDRATED in the heat. Heat stroke ain't no fun. And NO, beer and martinis don't count. Coffee neither for that matter. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets get something very clear - my work, whether in the heat or cold, is limited to ground level or very near so. These guys here a combining work and Circ de Soliel. Far above my pay grade - no pun intended. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back when I did electrical work I had to climb towers hundreds of feet, but the big difference was we had safety harnesses. That picture is crazy, an accident waiting to happen, they don't pay enough anywhere to do that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
