I used to plow at Lambert and Boeing. Boeing is zero tolerance. We would have salt trucks on site non-stop for weeks at a time if it was below freezing. Also, I've been in the ready mix business for 17 years, and I've less than a handfull of contractors treat their guys the way you do. Most of them talk down and yell and scream all the time. They also treat drivers like second class citizens, so its refreshing to see you interact with people the way you do.
Dang, I can only imagine. I used to stripe the lots and roads at Boeing years ago when I worked for Flyers Striping. Never understood why so many concrete guys are like that. It's already a tough job. Why make it harder. Thank you! 😊
Possibly Tom Green, Miwest Landscape at the time?..He was at Boeing when I was there..The amount of equip is amazing. You can see the rows of loaders and pushers from the highway....Best, Steve@@digging_in_the_parks2238
I had express script as a snow account 10 years ago, they were 0 tolerance too. Spent many a nights sitting and checking sidewalks for days on end. Miles of sidewalks and acres of concrete to keep clear. You have one hell of a crew rick. Mondays drive into work was interesting to say the least.. Keep up the awesome work guys. Congrats on over 50k subs.
Is it ironic that concrete guys have to salt the concrete? Do you use salt that’s safe for the concrete? I’ve ruined my driveway using salt in past. But I used rock salt 😢. Like a dummy. Love your videos dude. Your real no BS fake stuff. This channel will keep growing.
Feel sorry for every frame, body panel and brake line fitting in the Salt Belt, I'm in NW Washington, the rain belt, but we have 30yo trucks that have never seen a garage in their life with the biggest rust spot the size of a thumb tack head, your used vehicle inspections should require a acid dip but then just a seatbelt and a stereo knob would come outta the tank, my brother in law came from Minnesota in his low mile 2011 Tundra, religiously " maintened " by the dealership. While I helped him a rear brake job last year I put a 99¢ big flat head right thru the boxed frame with no hammer, just jabbing at 3" scale chunks hanging

I work for Boeing. They are "zero tolerance" because they want their employees to drive in that shit. But hey...at least the parking lots are done.
@jrgrant84 who did you work for at Lambert? I was with snow away back in the day

@digging_in_the_parks2238 Midwest Landscape had the contract, but I worked for Keyes Landscaping for like 5 or 6 winters.

We use calcium chloride to treat these properties. It does reduce the risk of damage like other chemicals cause.
Thanks, brotha! 😁🤘
Awesome Video and Much Love as Always!!

I always think about how nice that would be
I love ice… unless I have to drive on it. The best part about being a Minnesota finisher was the ice fishing.
I wanna go ice fishing. I've never tried that before
I’m from Minnesota. We haven’t had no major snow events. It’s been dry and mild temperatures. I miss the snow.
It's gonna be in the 50's next week 👍
God this video makes me wanna go salt some parking lots in florida!
😂😂🤘
Seems like your a great Boss and have some good employees
Thanks! These guys are awesome 🤘
👍Nice work
Thanks!
LETS GO BABYYY!!!!!!
🤘🤘🤘
Why the dig at victory? That was pretty funny ‘I don’t have to start the trucks every morning’
Definitely not a "dig" at victory 👍
I like my western spreaders. Don’t have to worry about all that. Just turn it on from inside the truck and throw all the salt you need
I've never used one before. I've only used the gas spreaders. But I have been told they are nice 🤘
They are great when it’s cold! I never used the gas ones just been around some people who have.
What’s up from ofallon il! Stay safe
What up 🤘 Thanks! You too
Was to cold to wash truck but at least it was already salted
💯🤘
It looks like you have nice properties to clean
Definitely! We love these properties. Close to home and in a great area
Hell ya Rick
😁🤘
Love all the videos regardless, Concrete or not
Awesome! Thank you!
I live in Florida so I dont know. Do you ever use or is sand mixed in the salt? Just wondering how effective it would be on sidewalks or parking lots.
I never have, but some areas do use it
@@RickThomasConcrete Appreciate it, hopefully you get a bunch of snow and we get a awesome plow time lapse... 🌴
Hey Rick do you ever watch Victory Outdoor Services on CZcams?????
I do every once in a while
Omg where did you get that dope ass grey Carhartt jacket with the hoodie, please let me know!
I've had it for a couple of years. Nicole bought it for me, I'll ask her if she remembers. 🤘
Thank you brother, stay safe out there 🙏
@okchief420 Nicole said she thinks it came from Bass Pro
You and Nicole are a god send, I'm on way to Bass pros!
It's always good to record what you do for insurance purposervices and disabled your ass maybe in youtube.....JJ......😊
💯🤘
