A Day With Melbourne Earthmover Jimmy Starbuck

- Jimmy Starbuck went to university for three months to study political science but quickly dropped out to make soap. Yes, soap.
After a fight with the boss's son, he quit to give driving "diggers," as the Australians say, a shot.
He bought his first machine three weeks later, a 2.5-tonne mini-excavator. How'd he afford it? With a car loan…
Fast-forward fifteen years, and Jimmy's company, Starbuck Excavation, has a large fleet of earthmoving machines and runs over 100 trucks daily around Melbourne.
I spent the day with him, driving around to various projects to get a feel for his glamorous lifestyle. We also visited his office and new yard.

I'm not very patriotic as an Australian but this was 100% Australia. If someone is giving you shit it means they like you.
You're the only Australian I've ever heard of that's not patriotic!
Probably an import.@@td42williams77
A miserable ‘Yes’ voter spotted
@@deezelkane I only learnt last night was the yes/no vote was all about. I give zero fucks what happens.
@@sidestep183 you’re a leftist cuck, just admit it.. considering no one knows what the yes vote actually means, I’d say you’re full of garbage
