Re: Off Topic Bullsh*t Thread Volume VI

[kyledvor61]

so i started work a week or so ago, doing labour on a new golf course thats being built, and also have to water all the trees quite a bit, right?
well i told my supervisor they should get a water tank instead of a big 200ft fire hose(trying to drag that thing around through the mud isnt easy) so they got a water tank and made it alot easier. but now they said they are going to get me a utility quad to pull it around instead of work truck, so i was thinking SWEET. also i said, they better get a big one to make sure theres enough power to pull it around, and figured id mention the can am 800. w00t!!! POWA

this should make work more fun, cruizin around the course on a quad       0    0
