And out looking for a new job!

Up by me a few years ago a very looooooooong steel beam was being transported to the new 7/8 mile long bridge site. It was the last beams of many but for reasons hard to fathom the driver put this last beam and trailer in the culvert on the road side. Everybody made it but him and I heard he was terminated quite fast.

I drove CDL for years and have taken a few trucks past this spot in the past and wonder just what the hell was he thinking as it was not that bad of a spot.
