Yeah Mitsui Osk Line (europe). Although i dont actually work for MOL we were main contractors and they wanted our uniforms and trucks in their livery. We are not their main contractor now and surprisingly,they use a Maersk owned haulier mainly.I wonder what MOL Japan would say if they knew,lol. -Andy :uj:

But hey at least you have 440 HP and 25(+) tons of steel to handle. :thumbsup:
That was my dream job as a kid. First "car" I ever drove was my father's merc 914 back in 1990.
I could barely touch the pedals but that truck was my first drive ever. :cheers:

I have a small drywall taping company (play in the mud). We're a decent little crew, 3-5 guys normally. I like doing apartment buildings but its bin mainly high end homes these days, looking forward to starting a new building next week. No complaints in amount of work, LOTS of work around, the building never stops :thumbsup: .
Oh, I also spend all my days on stilts, have for years. Working with my hands above my head sure keeps the watch goin.

Been a car mechanic for most of my life, but been working in the parts department shipping and selling parts for BMW`s for the last two years. Pretty sweet really, I get to fondle the new BMW`s, watch the car mechanics work their ass off and drink alot of coffee :grin: Although for much lesser pay than what I used to earn being a mechanic :banghead:
