Getting paid to do fuck all.
Flew into work to start my first 12hr shift on Wednesday, 62 hours on site so far. In the time I've done three lifts, all under 500kg, and all of those were yesterday.
Who else has some stories? I'm glad I started in taxi hire but fuck me this is easy money

Munka work boots any good?
Specifically the Angus Wide.
They sound alright but they're on the cheaper side and that makes me kinda suspect if they're actually gonna last. Tbf I'm a crane operator though so they're not gonna have the hardest life haha.

Hard hats for giant heads
The standard ones sit on top of my head sort of like those little jew hats and falls off really easily.
I'm looking for something at least 66cm, the only one's I've been able to find say they fit up to 66cm which is bullshit because like I said they just don't sit right. Annoying af
Surely I'm not the only meat head with this problem?
