PAVING IN THE RAIN IN JUNE?

I have never hauled asphalt without tarping, it cools too fast and comes out in clumps

Nothing says "A Quality Paving Company That Does Great Work" like paving in the rain 😂

If the paver operator had you rains your bed and break the load up first before opening your latches it would come out of the truck more controlled rather than an uncontrolled dump and not spill out in front of paver. Definitely not your fault. Paving with a small paver that can't push your truck is why you are pulling forward and back just giving them dumps. Thanks for the content.

That’s the prime example of a “gypsy” paving crew. Paving when it’s pouring rain lol.

Here in Pennsylvania the asphalt plant won't let us leave till we put a tarp over the asphalt.

You did a wonderful job, filling the hopper full of asphalt.

I know absolutely nothing, or at the very least very little about asphalt. What I do know from running my own business is when you work for yourself you’re always happy to work! You go, girl!!

I love how everyone is telling you how to do your job. But I have watched you do it successfully for years OWNING your truck. If it's not broke don't mess with it. Keep doing you because something is right.

Tell bobby happy fathers day take care❤

Junuary in the PNW. We were driving Green Valley Road in Auburn Saturday afternoon and got caught in the worst downpour I have ever seen since moving to the South Puget Sound area 30+ years ago. Half inch hail mixed into the deluge of water. The only thing missing was a tornado.

Almost all of my paving was exactly the same way. We did mostly dirt work but we paved our own jobs unless we were too busy. I really liked paving because it was always an "all hands on deck" situation and I spent nearly as much time on the ground helping to keep things moving along as I did in the seat. When I went to the plant for the first load if I hadn't been in six months or so I would go into the office first to check on procedures. I never got a whole load in one drop like you did but on the other hand your load was a relatively light one.

I love your confidence, showes you're experienced

For someone that has been driving since 1982! just left a county hwy job to work for a small asphalt comp! When I fly in Sept I will have BD hoodie on and wave to you and your family!

Yup ,I did road constuction driver over 10 years, then I got a 'super truck' 7 axle flow boy with two steer axles. Never had to get out of the truck with a belt bottom.

Odd most asphalt trucks use air or hydralic operated tarp cover to retain the heat in the load now a days

❤❤❤ I Miss you!! glad to see you back ! I love watching you

Many years ago, the 1990's I almost did this kind of a driving job as a temp, but that morning I was there at the business in their office waiting, the rest of the crew decided to not do the job that day. So it is interesting watching your job there on your video. Thanks...

Good to see you working again! Love paving jobs; pays by the hour, not much road mileage, here it's a 4 hour minimum to show up, and you are forever waiting either at the hot plant or on the job site. Easy money! 😉

I drive transfer for Lakeside and occasionally haul mix for private companies that use small pavers. I always have to give them small dumps because the paver doesn't have the power to push me.

What a great long day in the Rain. And they still lay it down. Very good. 👍😜
