    Still get excited

    I had a haul off job yesterday. It was for a commercial paint co that I rent my shop from. They had a big weekend job at a car dealership. Hauled a dumptruck load of plastic for them. I knew there were some metal paint buckets in there. I texted my helper this morning to get them out until I got there. About a full pickup load. Not much weight, but I keep them for scrap nuts and bolts etc then when I get to the yard, I just throw the whole bucket. By the way, these are 5 gallon buckets. Oil paint has to be in metal buckets. My point is, even if I would have been sitting on 10 tons, a pickup load of free metal( or metal that I'm paid to haul off) still gets me excited.
