Ready for a trip down memory lane with a hilarious twist? Buckle up for a rollicking ride as fan-favorite guest, Wes, and I, your host, indulge in a hearty banter, reminiscing about local festivals, past jobs, and some unforgettable golf course incidents. Willie, with his tales from his electrician days, is sure to tickle your funny bone, while I provide a unique perspective on the demanding yet comical duties of a golf course groundskeeper.
This episode is a laughter riot as Willie and I relive our rookie years, sharing our own fair share of fiascos, from rolling tires and weed-eating patrols to encountering copperheads and deer on the golf course! And, of course, who can forget the chaos caused by a member's dog on the green? Amidst the laughter, we don't shy away from the less rosy aspects of our job history, diving into candid discussions about our worst job experiences and the trials of dealing with challenging coworkers.
But the hilarity doesn't end there! We also share our strategies for dealing with paperwork, the stresses of factory work, and the trials of maintaining political correctness at work. And let's not forget the reality of working in a sawmill - it's tough! As we wrap up, we talk about our upcoming guests and express our appreciation for our listeners. So, sit back, relax, and get ready for a hilarious exploration of our diverse job experiences and the life lessons we've gained along the way.

Speaker 3 (05:09):
Well, yeah, I Mean so with those like anytime you did
a tournament you know thetournaments usually they
provided beer or alcohol, or theplayers, and they always had us
like set up which holes weregonna have the coolers on people
like oh, here's a cooler fullbeer.
Let's take it a whole number 14.
Yeah, yeah it's stop so yeah,we took it there but you know,
(05:33):
half the beer was gone by thetime we walked away from it.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
It's like a how many?
How many cases we get Six?
I thought there was ten, nope,they're.
They're six.
There's six, the, the.
The purchase order is incorrect.
I never one of them are likestumbling their way up there,
mm-hmm.
Well, how'd you do it there?
Speaker 3 (05:58):
You name it, I did it .
I Mean stuff that I wassupposed to do, stuff I wasn't
supposed to and stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
He's what was your job?
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Oh, okay, so I was ground skipper.
Basically I ran all theequipment up there, all the
mowers, back hose, anything thathad a diesel motor in it.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Basically, you get up before daylight and you work to
what?
Two or three?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Yeah, cuz golfers get up early.
So you're gonna get up earlierthan golfers.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Yeah, yeah, dude, it was insane.
Like we be rounded the firstnine, we cut the first nine and
all of a sudden we'd look out,there Be already people there,
the Sun just barely coming up,seven o'clock sharp.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah, you think it's just like Cutting the grass and
cutting the weeds and but it'slike much more complex, like the
shit you have to do Right allthe time divots, and like
there's algebra.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Yeah, like Trigonometry in it, like you
have to cut the grass at acertain angle, a certain degree.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Yeah, every day, and if you don't, you have to like,
post you to like, let them knowright.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
It's like, hey, the fairway is long today.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Yeah, or like you have to roll them, which is
basically like you take this bigI Don't know what, what it is.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
We just have a steamroller.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
It's like a steamroller, but it's smaller
and that would make the greensfaster or slower sure I say it's
faster, slower, that meansyou're you're basically
compressed in the ground.
Yeah so that when you hit yourball, yeah, it's gonna slip
right down.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Oh math math.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
This is the angles, the game, the, the meme, with
like the numbers and stuff overthe guy's head, say west on the
golf course.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Oh, thank you about.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Thinking about how fast that greens gotta be.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
You like change the holes out and stuff too right,
you did all that shit like andyeah, there's a lot of times you
would see me like standing likeovergreen looking at it and
they're thinking I'm like, oh,he's, you know, looking at his
work, or he's trying to knowit's me trying to figure out
which way I needed to cut it,because I forgot, from one hole
to the next, which angle I wascutting.
So, yeah, yeah, cuz I'm like,which way did I do this?
(08:06):
I don't remember.
Did I go up and down, left andright, or side to side, or yeah,
it's um.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
I don't know.
Man, I feel like people don'tThink about that job.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
People don't think about it's technical.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Yeah, people don't think about how hard that is
like keeping and this is, I meanit's 18 holes.
I mean it's a big golf, big-assgolf course, and Like not the
easiest to keep to racks.
It's like on to like.
Holes are on the side ofmountains and boy.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
It's all a reclaim strip job.
Yeah, so hard-paying like yeah,so it's not just like a normal
golf course when it's all flat,no man and you got to do like
the water you to take care ofthe fucking water.
Oh, that's fun.
That was fun because, likeevery golf course has like its
little tricks.
(08:53):
Yeah but I feel like our golfcourse had so many like rigged
up tricks that you had to do Toit to get things to go in.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Oh, absolutely Like it was better to just get an old
new system then work throughall that.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Yeah, but you know, we just worked through all that
like yeah.
Each.
So it was day-to-day to youknow, a top nine and a bottom
nine.
Everybody calls it that, butLiterally the top nine was up on
top of a mountain the bottomnine was on the bottom.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
It's in the valley.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Yeah, in the valley.
So when you get to theBasically, when you get to where
you have to water the bottomline, you go, go.
You got to go to the breakerbox, kick it on, but instead of
it being like a normal breakerbox, when you kick it on you
have to sit there and let itbuild pressure for 25 minutes
and basically just, it seemsalright now.
(09:44):
Then you have to drive all theway up to the top number which
bottom line?
So it would have been hold 10.
Drive all the back up to hold10 and take a little key and
turn all the sprinkler hits onby hand.
And then all of a sudden youhave to wait to see if the
pressure came up.
Pressure didn't come up.
You're like, oh, I blewsomething.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Nope, some trap.
Yeah, it just seems exactly thedysfunction we expect.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Or you know, we just had a lot of stuff like that
happen.
We had a big Mower which was tocut the roughs.
But, like anytime we toldsomebody get on, we're like,
whatever you do, don't stall itout, don't turn it off, don't
get up off the seat they're likewhy?
I'm like it'll die.
We can't get it back up.
It died every day if it wasn'tme right in it.
(10:32):
Then we basically have to pullsomething else down to boost it
off and then like and it's notlike a Incorporate like.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
It's not like the golf course, isn't like a big
corporation or anything.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
So it wasn't like you can get like new.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
You couldn't get new shit ever.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
It's all we ever got anything new.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Yeah, everything's always gonna be just the old
shit, and get it fixed back onlything we ever got new was like
new New golf carts.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
Yeah but with that being said, those golf carts,
they were fucked by the firstsix weeks true, um, I played
that course when you played itwith me.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
There was no golf carts and it was nine holes.
Yes and you walked it, yeah,like and uh, it was wild.
That was the old course too.
Yeah, it was the old course.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Yeah, it was only the feet, was only from, not the
first nine holes or I think itwas the back nine, or it was a
mix of those, yeah, so you know,there was actually a guy, I
think he's a member there.
He's still a member there, youknow, with, like, the golf team.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
They, they.
When they practice the highschool middle school golf teams,
they have to walk the top nine.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
They do.
But, that's it.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
They just have to walk the top number when they
determine they have to walk thetop nine.
But in between holes they canbe shuttled.
Yeah just like PJ.
But now there's this guy.
He's probably in his fiftiesnow.
Ever since I worked up there Iworked up there since I was like
15, worked there for about 15years that dude would always
show up and he would never get acart and he would walk all 18.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Every day I walked the exercise.
It's all the extra, as you needthat, basically why I did it.
But he and he would shoot underparry every time.
I was like aren't you killedout?
He's like yeah, but I love it.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Yeah, well, I mean, I guess, if you're gonna, if
you're gonna work out anyway,like if he's gonna work out
anyway, go play golf and you canwalk.
All those you can walk, what isit?
I mean, I guess that, how manymiles?
That is?
That's 18 holes.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
All over there.
That's a lot.
Yeah, I mean especially goingup and down the incline.
Yeah, and I've always said it,though I was like you know, I
love baseball, everything else,but If you really want to look
at athletes that are in shape,80% of athletes are golfers that
are in the most peak.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Oh yeah, yeah, it's like a bit of a top of it, you
don't?
Speaker 3 (12:53):
know it by looking at them.
Yeah, they're always likedressed up for free athletes.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Yeah they're all freak athletes.
Yeah they could done.
They could have done any sportthey wanted to.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
Exactly.
It's crazy to think about.
What do you think like Tigersback gets messed up so much?
Speaker 1 (13:08):
right, because he's working out constantly.
Yeah, he's constantly trying toget.
I was trying to get that swingback anyway.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Well, I tell you what he needs to quit changing the
swing then true, how many piecesof equipment did you crash?
Crash wreck, I mean, I guessnot crash Of them 90% of them,
I'm trying to think because themowers are not like no mowers my
(13:36):
favorite when I ever crashed,though, was like my rookie year,
and that was before, like theyhad.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
We're first rookie year.
People should call it rookieyear more.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
That was before, like they had paved the main road,
going on.
Oh yeah so like I was in one ofthose six will gators, the
little diesel six will, yeah,like they fly dude and I was
going up another story thezigzag path.
Well, when you go up it, no cardis supposed to be allowed to go
(14:11):
down.
They're supposed to take thatground road down, and there was
a golfer that was drunk as helland he was zooming down it while
I was going up.
Oh, and it was.
Either I crashed into thismember and get in trouble, or
It'd be much worse to hit him.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
So I crash it into the side of the, the rock wall
and there's a little barrier.
Hit the barrier and I was likewe're good.
Also the other guy was tellingme no, you're not good.
I was like why?
And I went to pull out and alsoI heard a pop look down and my
tire is rolling back down thehill.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
You five more.
This is a six wheel.
It was a six wheel.
You got five more wheels.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
I got five more but it was the steering tire.
I think you made that negativeone.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
So it was really like you, would got a lot more
trouble inside.
Yeah, I feel like I would seemslike you made the right call.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
But yeah, I've, basically I've run over wrecked
or hit something with every ithappens.
It happens up there.
You're a farm out and you hitrocks, you hit wall and like the
work is or we learn and golfcart.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Yeah, you are yeah, the work is so like Monotonous,
though, just like the shityou're doing, all the time Doing
the same thing over and over,and it's like.
You got, you gotta get in someshit like oh, yeah, like and
it's not like cool that you haveto rate the sand.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
That was like yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
I'd quit.
I think that would be my like.
That's the thing I would neverdo the back.
Did you break the sand?
No, I hate saying anyways, am Igonna?
I did not write the sand.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
What's worse than raking the sand is having to be,
on weed eater patrol to likecut the angles around the sand
pits.
We're like all that grass isgrowing up around it.
Yeah and if you're not payingattention, you're gonna get a
face full of sand.
Yeah it's like it's from thatweed eater.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
That's the fucking that has to be the worst too.
Like the weed, eating isliteral.
Literal obstacles put there onpurpose to complicate things but
, that course has more hazardsthan any course ever.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Oh yeah, so I know people that Haven't been around
Raven Rock Won't know this.
But like the old driving range,Mm-hmm.
So if you were a low man, ifyou were a new guy, you didn't
touch equipment.
You were weeding Mm-hmm.
Once a year they would task allthe new guys to weed, eat that
(16:48):
whole entire hillside.
Oh, the drive the driving rangeall the way up to the tree line
.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
That's the worst, no.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Yeah, I mean it was awful and but it was funny too
because, like, once you get outof that area where you don't
have to weedy, you can watchthem go through where you went
through.
Yeah, so you, you get to likewitness them screaming when they
find a copperhead, or they, orlike there there's a dough
bedded down and in.
Jumps up and they start rollingdown the hill because it scared
(17:16):
them.
You know stuff like that.
So you're like, hey, I've beenthere, seen that guys.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Yeah, that's a big heel, that's a lot of that's a
lot of weeds.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
It is before, like all the model bushes.
Yeah, like it was just straightweeds all the way up to 300
yard.
Yeah, all the way up there.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Well, I Know, when you were there, um, anytime I
seen you, you were intosomething literally like or be
like pictures to see me.
Pictures of you, like in a hole.
They just happen to be in themiddle of the golf course or
catching a snake.
The All those like ponds atfishing and we're out like,
(17:58):
aren't they all?
Speaker 3 (17:58):
oh yeah, dude, yeah so much fish yeah so there was
small mouth and tons of golfballs.
Yeah, there was actually acompany that would come out and
they would rate the ponds andSell them back to yeah, the golf
course, and they would do itfor like two or three days.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Set the scoop dive.
That's a hell of a business.
That is a great business plan,but they would out.
You want them.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
They would get like they would pull out 20 and 30
thousand, yeah, sure, at a time.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Make five the instance of all.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
I mean like for a while, though.
That's probably five thousand.
Those are mine.
Me to everything, everything inthe wind, the water, everything
the water all the time.
What's the weirdest thingthat's ever happened on the golf
course to you?
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Mmm, weird thing probably be the dog wrecking the
cart into the pond.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
What excuse me?
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Yeah, you heard me right.
We had a member there.
He, I don't.
I can never pronounce thisbreed of dog right Walmart or
Womb around yeah, that thingyeah.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
I don't even fucking know.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
We'll Google it and show it to you.
Google it.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Google it warm and writer.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
I can never say I'm a writer Wommer.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Anyway, what the fuck ?
Speaker 3 (19:22):
So this dog a while more honor.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
It's supposed to look like we just got a wiener I.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Want to call it wiener.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Okay, we call it.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
I mean it looks like this thing that thing.
Oh, okay, okay, it's reallypretty so it is they're gorgeous
, great podcasting and you knowthey're supposed to be like
super sleek, super muscular.
Yeah dude, this thing wasProbably about a hundred pounds
overweight.
Look like a deer tick with alittle head, just big ol fat
(19:51):
little legs.
And this member where hebrought it every day it's cool
dog, loved everybody.
But you get to hole number 12.
So, with hole number 12, yourT-boxes are elevated and you hit
over a pond into a Fairway andthen the fairway is elevated the
(20:12):
opposite way, so you'rebasically parked at an angle
down hill and he, and at thebottom of the hill is the pond
so he got out and Told the dogto stay.
When he told the dog to stay,it's.
It sat there for a second he hehit his tee shop.
(20:32):
When he hit his tee shot heheard the click of the emergency
brake and that dog had actuallyhit the gas pedal.
Oh cute and it rolled all theway down the hill and the dog
waited till the last second,jumped out right before it hit
the pond.
Ha ha nice and it destroyed thecar, of course.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
So once it destroyed the car, they asked me to go
down there and get it.
They're like, yeah, you're good.
The dog, no oh okay.
Yeah, he's fine, he jumped outright now.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
We jumped out.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Yeah, he jumped out.
He knew what he was doing,though he knew what he was doing
and um, it was just funnybecause they're like well, let's
get in there and no one want toget in the pond, I was like
it's a pond, it's water.
Yeah so I went in, got in thegarden, the pond, I got to the.
The car was wrapping the chainaround it and all of a sudden I
heard our mechanic shepherd.
(21:22):
Rest in peace rip.
Love you, brother.
He started he always called mejunior.
I Don't know why he just hadthe hint.
I could hear him.
I can still hear him till thisday doing it.
He's gone, jeremy.
Watch out, watch out.
And I was like what?
I looked and the the groundcame out from under the cart and
it started sinking and I wasinside the cart trying to wrap
(21:44):
it.
So you see me trying to get outof the cart and it's sinking all
the way down.
All I could see was like thetop of the car.
Then you can see the the seatfloating up because it came on
him Shepard being shepherd, he'sjust it, he was like grab grab
the seat.
It's a flotation.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
So do you lose the cart?
Speaker 3 (22:06):
we got it out, it never worked again.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
I was gonna say it's non-function ever worked again
like no it was a gas or electric.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
That one was Electric yeah, they moved to electric
cars.
I always prefer gas cars.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
They're faster.
Yeah, yeah, louder.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Yeah, I'm one of the reasons why they moved to
electric.
Because they were cuz you gotbecause we figured out how to Go
have you drifting the golfcarts everywhere?
Speaker 1 (22:34):
I would listen if.
If it rained just a little bitin the morning, yeah just
perfect enough where it wasn'ttoo muddy you can slide them.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Man, we would go down a fairway as fast as we can,
and then we would just hit theCuz.
I mean if you fuck the grass up, you can fix it 360s all the
way down.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
That's beautiful, that's fun, though I'm not an
accident.
Yeah, you've done an accident.
But you know, you just hadstuff like that happen all the
time and then going golfing withyou was Experience too, because
you had like access toeverything she's got.
Not, it's good, let's go tothis.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
No, it's fine.
We don't have to wait anywhereor we're gonna cart you remember
the big force fire?
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Yeah, I was a part of trying to save the golf course
for gay during that.
Oh yeah because all the grasshad already went dormant.
So when it went dormant itturned yellow.
Yeah, of course.
Yeah it's just like leaves thatfall turned yellow.
It's dead at this point.
And then you had fire comingfrom both sides of the hill and
(23:39):
we were trying to keep it wet aspossible.
I mean putting gallons andgallons on that dormant grass,
because if it would have hitthat grass, yeah, it's fucking
lead everything.
Yeah, it would.
Just it would look like firebrimstone I.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Never really thought about a golf course been on fire
, I guess.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Just goes up and flames.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I was thinking about things that Businesses that
burned down.
I wouldn't think, which isironic since the recently the
clubhouse burnt down.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
Yeah, yeah, you know work down years but the
clubhouse burnt down so thatrestaurant and clubhouse when
the force fire hit, it was sohot that there was a four-inch
Water line that was going allthe way down to the main water
Access.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
It went all the way down into almost Dunham and the
water was or the.
The fire was so hot that whenit.
You know finally went out.
We went to look for that lineand you know it's a big
thick-ass.
Four inch.
And it's probably like half aninch inch thick.
It was deduced reduced, reduceddown to powder Like oh fuck was
(24:51):
nothing left of it, literallynothing.
They were like go go chase thatline.
I was like what line there?
There's not a line left.
Yeah it was like 300 foot of itgone.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
So we have a segment that we recorded.
A buddy stopped by.
It's just me and him, willie.
He was a.
You know Willie, he's a, he'slike a listener and he's one of.
He was one of our patrons forforever there and he's been with
us.
So he stopped by and he'sactually an electrician.
(25:26):
So we talked about that.
I'm gonna cut to that me andhim in studio recording there
and then we'll be right back.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
My problem is like I listened to two podcasts All
right, you all and the Joe Roganwhen everybody good on
someone's gonna.
And Joe Rogan has like I mean,he's like three and four hours
long.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Yeah, he does those, he does the segments, so that
are great.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Yeah, cut like his YouTube and the tick-tock and
stuff is just cuts of it, whichare great, and like I'll sit and
listen to it and it can last afull week, yeah, and then you're
all, I mess up and I listen toit, like on Monday on my way to
work, and then I'd like.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
I can quit today.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Maybe it's Quit my job.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
It's ironic because my new job I have a paid lunch,
oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
I'm sorry, so I'm paid for everything,
everything's paid.
Anyway, you're getting paidright now, right yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:23):
that's awesome.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Uh, I will say the last person that I quit my job
for was you.
Oh, oh, really, yeah, he wasthe last person I quit from.
Really, I've turned in mynotice like four times at my
current will but yeah, it's uh,and I went the opposite
direction, like I should noteven be on here because I've got
(26:44):
like five jobs now you got youdoing everything.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Well, no, yeah, but you don't, um, you don't Hate
all that shit.
No, right, no.
So I mean because you, youbecame an electrician later in
life.
Mm-hmm right and you reallyenjoy.
That.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Well, I Failing to it like.
So.
My dad lived down there when.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
I was down there.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
He's like you got to come live with me.
Like I put you through schooland everything.
I was like, okay, and so hesaid, well, you're gonna work
with me over the summer.
And so I went down there and hehad me working with him.
He's like, hey, there's hisclasses.
It's like math and I've alwaysbeen like a math nerd, which is
weird.
But he's like no to theseclasses and see if you like them
.
And I went.
I was like yeah, they're prettycool.
(27:27):
And then he's like hey, we havea job out at UK but you have to
be in the apprenticeship to beon it because it's like a
prevailing wage job.
I was like I don't, I don'twant to do four years of this.
And he said here's the payscale and at 18 I went because I
was making like $7 when I wasworking at the gas station right
.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I started there I was making like nine and that wild
no, blow your mind that we madethat little money, yeah, and now
people are still able to makethat little money.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Is that?
What is that?
What they still pay?
Minimum wage is still seven 25ain't that fucking crazy.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
That blows my mind, dude.
That's, that's nuts to me tothink that, like no way I could
make it on that Well.
I mean you know you can doanything on that.
I can't pay a quarter of mybills, right?
Speaker 2 (28:09):
And.
But he showed me this scale andit was like, as an 18 year old,
on this job I was gonna bemaking $22 an hour.
Yeah, I'm an electrician into.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
It sounds great.
This is what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
But my whole thing like it worked out because I was
gonna go to it to take and yeah.
That fucking does that existanymore.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
No, no, that shit collapsed right.
All those did like Spensirianand them and like all that shit
Was.
Did they get discredited it?
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Yeah, like it.
Either government just come inone day and was like you're all
done and shut them down?
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Do they discredit the Diplomins now?
Speaker 2 (28:46):
I Don't know about, like the diplomas people I but
but if you come in with a itdetect diploma, somebody's
probably gonna laugh you out ofthe building.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Yeah, cuz it's not like.
I know I have a buddy who's gothis got discredited, like, for
he went to like a school, likean online school or whatever and
ended up not being legit orwhatever they they were like
turns out, you don't get adiploma.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Yeah, and I mean most of those places like Colleges
are weird because you can try todo yeah, you can get like
almost a degree at like UK, andthen you try to go to like Ohio
State and I like yeah, and halfof these don't work and so you
have to go.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
Yeah, credits for that.
I went to Southeast.
I went to community college forTwo years for ping pong.
Yeah, I played so much pingpong.
I got pretty good, though, likeI'm not bad at ping pong.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Yeah, I've never played it cuz I never went to
college.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
So Never got a chance to.
What sucked is like theteachers play to.
So, like you'd be, you'd beplaying and they'd be like, uh,
you look for like for class?
I was like, yeah, but it's fine, so I'm here with the teachers
right, I'm here with theprofessor, I'm playing ping pong
with my professor.
It feels like I'm gonna be lateanyway, so I'm the last person
(30:00):
you quit?
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Yes, you are.
That's why maybe that's why Ihad such a draw under this.
Did you just walk out?
No, I come in.
And I was like, hey, I got ajob in Legsington.
And you're like, oh, that'scool If it don't work out.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Oh, I couldn't remember, if you like, if you
just didn't come back.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
I didn't give it two weeks because it was like a
Wednesday and my dad was likeyou can start Monday?
Speaker 1 (30:26):
and I was like yeah, fuck it, I don't tell him no.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
So I was just like I guess I'm telling dusty I'm done
.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Yeah, man, that's all I'm such a blur.
For me, the gas station dayswere like.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
That's 15 and a half years ago.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
It's ancient and it was still like I don't even.
It blows my mind that I wasable to work, because I can't
even fucking imagine workingmidnights now.
But like that blows my mind,this is like.
I worked midnights for forever,like like midnight to 8 am.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Yeah.
I can't even imagine that now Idid it like while I was still
in high school, because theywere somebody quit and I think
y'all had me work some midnight.
She is like I was working andthen going straight to school.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Do not doubt, we did that.
Yeah, I was 18.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
So it was fine, but it was.
I remember the one night likeyou're all's whole shit dick.
Demon Stories yeah.
I was working and I can'tremember who is coming in the
next morning, but like the coalCrowd come through and I went to
clean and I went in thebathroom and like there was just
a pile of shit in the urinaland I just walked out.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
Yeah, I don't get paid enough.
I'm not cleaning that, that wetalked about that.
Gas station bathrooms, man, aredifferent.
Yeah, station bathrooms arelike People shit up the walls
and like like what are peopledoing in the bathroom?
Speaker 2 (31:43):
How many people carry sharpies around with them?
Speaker 1 (31:46):
That's what I always think.
That is just like are theykeeping a sharpie in my bathroom
?
Like is there a sharpiesomewhere hidden in my bathroom
that I don't know?
Speaker 2 (31:52):
is in here.
No, those people.
They wake up and they put ontheir like rebel flag underwear
and they put their sharpie intheir pocket Because I gotta go
be racist somewhere.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Yeah, there's so much shit, why sake had to erase off
the walls there.
It was just like oh, can't evenuse this bathroom until
somebody gets rid of thatBleaching it off the walls.
I've never I don't know if I'veever had a sharpie in a
bathroom.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
I mean I have, but we , we, we use sharpies like
marker, condit and stuff.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
It's you, it's fucking, it's electric
Electricians.
Paint shit on what.
That is true.
Everything's in a charcoalpencil on the wall, like we know
who did that shit but like theonly other bathroom story.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
I was in Bowling Green working on a job out there
and I was in the bathroom andthis kid walks in and he's like
yanking on the door and I'm likethere's someone in here, dude,
and he's just, he makes a noisethat I don't even know how to
replicate, but then you just seeshit fall on the floor.
Oh my god, his pants didn'tcome down, like he just shit on
(33:04):
the floor.
And then he ran over to likewhere the sink in the urinal was
and then he ran out.
So he ran out with shit and Ijust that.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
That makes me so nervous, because he was
definitely just a oh man.
That stresses me out.
Yeah right, little kids aregross never touch the kids hands
.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
Well, you know I say kid, but like he could have been
like.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
I mean, like I always said, if you say you didn't, if
you don't shit on yourself,here live.
You've never shit on yourself.
Yeah, you've definitely donethat.
What's, um, what's the worstjob you ever had?
Are you gonna say the gasstation?
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Yeah, the gas station I had to.
Real dick of a manager.
No, virginia, honestly like our, our company, like I've worked
in a bunch of different areas ofours, so like the one, that
made me want to quit my job Wasit wasn't really the job itself,
it was the people I was workingfor and it gets most of the
(34:05):
time.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
That's what we always say is.
Most of the time it's like ifyou're working with, like
factory work Is the worst kindof work, right, but all those
people are like together andlike friends, right, and but
like are the people that manageslike one of our divisions?
Speaker 2 (34:21):
They're just digs like, yeah, they feel like
they're better than everyoneelse.
And I was like In my second orthird year in this, so I was
still.
I knew nothing, but I was, Iwas running work on their side,
yeah, but they still treated melike I was just some hillbilly
who didn't know anything and andit's always.
You're always gonna get thatwhen you go somewhere and then
(34:42):
later on, like I quit theirdivision later on I ended up
back in it and I was runninglike full-on.
I had a service truck and I'veran a full job.
That Bowling Green job was justme Uh-huh.
And then they sent me toAlabama and I was going on
vacation like the week after andI was like I'm only gonna be
here a week.
So whatever gets done, getsdone.
(35:03):
And they bombed my review thatyear because I left a bunch of
stuff.
I'm not fined and I was likeall right, the next day I turned
into Jesus.
But as far as like stressfuljobs I worked in Technically.
Speaker 1 (35:20):
I'm in HR now, but oh shit, yeah, you're the enemy
I'm.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
Toby, but I was the recruiter when I first come into
our office and I was hiringpeople and moving people from
job Uh-huh, and one of the guysthat I knew was sitting at home
because I didn't put his name ona Document that we had and I
was like how many more peopleare sitting.
I hated it.
(35:45):
I was like I need out of this.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
Yeah, I feel like I Could never be in HR because I'm
confident I'm an HR liability.
Yeah, I don't think they canever hire me for HR.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
It's more of a joke if I apply for HR, especially in
like the PC world we live in,like I always like I talk to
people.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
I love talking to people like yeah, well, you got
to fill them out, though, right,Like you're gonna fill out the
crowd you're with.
You're like Can I, can I be onmy bits with these people, or
can I not?
Speaker 2 (36:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Luckily I have a group of friends at work the
people I sit around where I'llhave.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
We're all lock-minded , so yeah, you got to kind of
bait somebody else into sayingsomething to see how many times
they can do it.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
I'm sick of shit.
By the way, I don't know ifanybody knows.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
My wife has like what is it sinus infection right?
Speaker 1 (36:34):
Yeah, maybe that's what I got, I don't know and she
, she.
Speaker 2 (36:37):

her at home the fucking pollen,bro.
Speaker 1 (36:41):
The pollen here, people don't know.
Speaker 2 (36:43):

whole goal was to come back here, yeah, I wanted to get up there
and be like I hate this andtell my dad like, hey, I tried,
yeah, not doing this, and itnever, never happened.
Speaker 1 (37:15):
Well, it's probably for the better I get yet.
Well, yeah.
I mean yeah, yeah, hindsightseems like being here with it.
I mean, you know, might be oncrack.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Yeah, or at the very best at the sawmill you might be
on a podcast.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
Yeah, they don't get paid enough.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Man saw me oh people who's?
People who work at the sawmilldon't get paid enough money.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
It's insane, it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
I see him cuz it's fucking hard.
That shit ain't like.
That's no fucking joke.
Starting pays like 14 or someshit if that, if that, yeah,
it's low.
Yeah, there was a Facebook postthat got hated Like they got
like destroyed by a good friendof mine.
Is the manager there?
And you know he can't, you knowI mean he can't help a lot of
stuff.
(37:59):
But right but it got likedestroyed because it was like I
Said to start and pay and it wasjust like you know drug test
and and it was like you knowwhatever, how many, ever hours a
week or whatever, and it waslike you got to work 50 hours a
week for $12 an hour and youcan't go home and smoke a joint.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
Yeah, so I can't be high and I have to work for the
history.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Yeah, it's pretty tough.
I don't have to cut that, notdecided you.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
Didn't say no names and we didn't say the name of
the sawmills.
I think you're good.
Yeah, it's just a sawmill, butnot the one here in Kansas.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
Yeah, sawmilling.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
Kansas.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
Nebraska.
Well, um, it's good having youon.
I'm glad you stopped by, Uh-huhit's been fun, man.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Uh, I will say that this podcast is like Exactly my
humor.
Yeah and so like y'all gottaget more.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
We're gonna have you on for a full episode with
everybody here.
Mm-hmm and that's the plan.
So when we have some more timeor we can call, we can do a call
.
It's funny because we justfigured out.
We were like, uh, had the thesystem for a while and just
figured out like I knew we couldcall because we did some before
.
But like, did you listen to theepisode with the live calls?
Yeah, that's the first timewe've done live calls.
We had one with the calliansbut they weren't live.
(39:25):
It was like recorded calls butthat it.
That episode was the first onewith live calls and it worked
pretty good.
It flowed pretty good and wewere worried it wouldn't but it
turned out pretty good yeah,y'all had the girls.
Yeah, the girls were here and wecalled the boys from there.
That was a.
That was a fun episode.
I kept thinking it was like ahappy end of massage parlor.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
The more y'all talk, you never said what the business
man?
Speaker 1 (39:45):
It's funny because when she got here she was like
we can't, we can't reallynecessarily discuss what we do
because it's protected by like.
I mean the business they run isprotected by, like, alcohol and
beverage, mm-hmm.
So they can't discuss aboutreally we can't they can't
(40:07):
discuss about really what it is.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
I even went on Google Maps and I was like what is
this business?
So it got it got wild.
Speaker 1 (40:14):
It got kind of wild.
They can't even advertise likethey can't.
There's no, they can'tadvertise.
It also couldn't because itcouldn't say the name of the
business either.
Speaker 2 (40:20):
It's a shitty business model.
If you can't advertise it, Idon't know man.
Speaker 1 (40:24):
Because what it is they provide is, you know,
needed.
But that was the whole thingwas.
So we kind of had to improvisefrom there and we didn't.
We ended up in a good showanyway, but we cut a lot of
stuff.
We cut a lot of stuff, yeah,which was entertaining.
But yeah, we'll have you on fora full episode and we'll call
(40:45):
you and we'll you know we'llhave a whole load of questions
and you can roast this and we'llhave a good time there.

The way they do it is.
Usually they'll put the thecoolers down and then they'll
(43:43):
put on the bottom of the coolers.
The beer on the top of thecooler is your Pepsi and Coke
products.
Sure so Whether we knew or not,if they had alcohol, we would
go basically fishing.
Beer and we hit the mother loadthat day.
There was beer a lot of his beer, a lot of it, and and you know
(44:04):
it was just like Dusty saidearlier about the whole he would
get text from me at like 11o'clock and I'd be already
blitzed this one day.
You know, usually with thetournament, once the tournament
starts you're done for the day,like if there's any kind of
maintenance on the equipment,you can do that to finish out
(44:25):
your hours or you can go home.
Yeah, so we were trying to bestraight-faced going back in the
garage Because it was like oneo'clock.
Maybe by then we had already.
There was a spot on the golfcourse.
It was a back lot that no onereally could get to except us
and, like you know, we we wentback.
(44:45):
There used to be where I huntedat we went, we went back there
and killed a bunch of thosebeers.
Speaker 1 (44:51):
And here's a man we hid, we hid and we hid, we hid
and drank all the beer.
We drank all the beers, gotback, got back to the they good
old maintenance building and wewere trying to.
Speaker 3 (45:02):
Basically, at the end of the day, you're trying to
park all the equipment back inand it's like Tetris, oh yeah,
because it don't fit really,yeah.
So if you ever think about likePOV Tetris, that's us, but then
times it by a hundred withdifficulty, yeah, if, like you,
were looking overhead, it wouldlook like a jigsaw, but look
like one of those.
Speaker 1 (45:25):
Yeah, like the only you can figure it out.
Speaker 3 (45:26):
Yeah, and we were drunk little puzzles, so they
were trying to get us toeverything together and one of
the Guys that I worked realclose with.
They're like we need to get thesupergator, which the
supergator is just like asix-wheel gator, but I think
it's like a six-wheel gator.
It's just like a six-wheelgator, but it's a big diesel
motor, it's four-wheel drive, itdoesn't have six tires, it's
(45:49):
got four tires and it'sbasically like the size of a box
truck.
It'll go fucking anywhere and doyeah, and it's got dump bed on
it.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (45:57):
I think ever it's five speed and we were like
that's the last piece ofequipment we need to move and it
was kind of like blocking awayto get another piece in and I
was like hey, so and so go ahead.
And we got to get thisequipment in and he's like
alright.
And before we could sayanything, the dude that I worked
closely was like I got it.
(46:18):
I said, oh shit, before I coulddo anything, he had already
started up, put it what hethought Was in first gear to go
forward, and he threw it inreverse and slammed on the gas
and, like Went right through thewall, almost Took a chip out of
the doorway rip the wholefucking thing yeah and then the
(46:40):
whole time after that he wastrying to play cool and can't
look.
Right, I see like you're drunk,I'm not drunk, I'm not the one
that wrecked it.
Speaker 1 (46:47):
We're all fucking sober, leave us alone.
Speaker 3 (46:49):
He's like I was getting one team.
What are you?
Speaker 1 (46:53):
Did you guys get fired for being drunk?
No, do you think it had?
No, really, it was newmanagement.
Right, it was a new managementand they like clear everybody
out because they didn't want topay, like six people.
Speaker 3 (47:05):
Yeah, new management yeah can't imagine what I.
Don't know.
I tried to you know how to runthe golf course.
They didn't like it.
Yeah, but look at him now.
Speaker 1 (47:17):

course.
Oh yeah and every now and thenthey would get out and they
would just like be grazingthat'd be super cool In a
fairway thing is I am deathlyscared of horses, oh yeah.

You afraid you're gonna get kicked or what?
Speaker 3 (48:02):

You've Seems like you've anactual phobia.
Speaker 3 (48:10):

I got in trouble for that.
Speaker 1 (48:54):
Raise your hand if you're surprised.
You got in trouble with that.
Speaker 3 (48:56):
I used to hunt on the go nobody's surprised.
There's been witnesses ofseeing me running around the
golf course with a bow and arrow, somewhat somewhere, I believe.
Speaker 1 (49:08):
Yeah, you were just pretending to be legless though.
Speaker 3 (49:10):
Yeah, I mean, who wouldn't be?

The groundskeeper at the golfcourse.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Yeah, that's the best .
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Yeah, I think you had the best time just because
that's when you were drinkingand you were drunk most of the
time.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Get drunk text at like 1130 on the golf course,
though.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
It is you.
There's supposed you have to bethere anyway like 1130.
I get drunk text from like atwork.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
Well, yeah, I Mean so with those like anytime you did
a tournament you know thetournaments usually they
provided beer or alcohol, or theplayers, and they always had us
like set up which holes weregonna have the coolers on people
like oh, here's a cooler fullbeer.
Let's take it a whole number 14.
Yeah, yeah it's stop so yeah,we took it there but you know,
(05:33):
half the beer was gone by thetime we walked away from it.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
It's like a how many?
How many cases we get Six?
I thought there was ten, nope,they're.
They're six.
There's six, the, the.
The purchase order is incorrect.
I never one of them are likestumbling their way up there,
mm-hmm.
Well, how'd you do it there?
Speaker 3 (05:58):
You name it, I did it .
I Mean stuff that I wassupposed to do, stuff I wasn't
supposed to and stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
He's what was your job?
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Oh, okay, so I was ground skipper.
Basically I ran all theequipment up there, all the
mowers, back hose, anything thathad a diesel motor in it.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Basically, you get up before daylight and you work to
what?
Two or three?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Yeah, cuz golfers get up early.
So you're gonna get up earlierthan golfers.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Yeah, yeah, dude, it was insane.
Like we be rounded the firstnine, we cut the first nine and
all of a sudden we'd look out,there Be already people there,
the Sun just barely coming up,seven o'clock sharp.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah, you think it's just like Cutting the grass and
cutting the weeds and but it'slike much more complex, like the
shit you have to do Right allthe time divots, and like
there's algebra.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Yeah, like Trigonometry in it, like you
have to cut the grass at acertain angle, a certain degree.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Yeah, every day, and if you don't, you have to like,
post you to like, let them knowright.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
It's like, hey, the fairway is long today.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Yeah, or like you have to roll them, which is
basically like you take this bigI Don't know what, what it is.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
We just have a steamroller.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
It's like a steamroller, but it's smaller
and that would make the greensfaster or slower sure I say it's
faster, slower, that meansyou're you're basically
compressed in the ground.
Yeah so that when you hit yourball, yeah, it's gonna slip
right down.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Oh math math.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
This is the angles, the game, the, the meme, with
like the numbers and stuff overthe guy's head, say west on the
golf course.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Oh, thank you about.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Thinking about how fast that greens gotta be.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
You like change the holes out and stuff too right,
you did all that shit like andyeah, there's a lot of times you
would see me like standing likeovergreen looking at it and
they're thinking I'm like, oh,he's, you know, looking at his
work, or he's trying to knowit's me trying to figure out
which way I needed to cut it,because I forgot, from one hole
to the next, which angle I wascutting.
So, yeah, yeah, cuz I'm like,which way did I do this?
(08:06):
I don't remember.
Did I go up and down, left andright, or side to side, or yeah,
it's um.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
I don't know.
Man, I feel like people don'tThink about that job.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
People don't think about it's technical.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Yeah, people don't think about how hard that is
like keeping and this is, I meanit's 18 holes.
I mean it's a big golf, big-assgolf course, and Like not the
easiest to keep to racks.
It's like on to like.
Holes are on the side ofmountains and boy.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
It's all a reclaim strip job.
Yeah, so hard-paying like yeah,so it's not just like a normal
golf course when it's all flat,no man and you got to do like
the water you to take care ofthe fucking water.
Oh, that's fun.
That was fun because, likeevery golf course has like its
little tricks.
(08:53):
Yeah but I feel like our golfcourse had so many like rigged
up tricks that you had to do Toit to get things to go in.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Oh, absolutely Like it was better to just get an old
new system then work throughall that.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Yeah, but you know, we just worked through all that
like yeah.
Each.
So it was day-to-day to youknow, a top nine and a bottom
nine.
Everybody calls it that, butLiterally the top nine was up on
top of a mountain the bottomnine was on the bottom.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
It's in the valley.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Yeah, in the valley.
So when you get to theBasically, when you get to where
you have to water the bottomline, you go, go.
You got to go to the breakerbox, kick it on, but instead of
it being like a normal breakerbox, when you kick it on you
have to sit there and let itbuild pressure for 25 minutes
and basically just, it seemsalright now.
(09:44):
Then you have to drive all theway up to the top number which
bottom line?
So it would have been hold 10.
Drive all the back up to hold10 and take a little key and
turn all the sprinkler hits onby hand.
And then all of a sudden youhave to wait to see if the
pressure came up.
Pressure didn't come up.
You're like, oh, I blewsomething.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Nope, some trap.
Yeah, it just seems exactly thedysfunction we expect.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Or you know, we just had a lot of stuff like that
happen.
We had a big Mower which was tocut the roughs.
But, like anytime we toldsomebody get on, we're like,
whatever you do, don't stall itout, don't turn it off, don't
get up off the seat they're likewhy?
I'm like it'll die.
We can't get it back up.
It died every day if it wasn'tme right in it.
(10:32):
Then we basically have to pullsomething else down to boost it
off and then like and it's notlike a Incorporate like.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
It's not like the golf course, isn't like a big
corporation or anything.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
So it wasn't like you can get like new.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
You couldn't get new shit ever.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
It's all we ever got anything new.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Yeah, everything's always gonna be just the old
shit, and get it fixed back onlything we ever got new was like
new New golf carts.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
Yeah but with that being said, those golf carts,
they were fucked by the firstsix weeks true, um, I played
that course when you played itwith me.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
There was no golf carts and it was nine holes.
Yes and you walked it, yeah,like and uh, it was wild.
That was the old course too.
Yeah, it was the old course.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Yeah, it was only the feet, was only from, not the
first nine holes or I think itwas the back nine, or it was a
mix of those, yeah, so you know,there was actually a guy, I
think he's a member there.
He's still a member there, youknow, with, like, the golf team.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
They, they.
When they practice the highschool middle school golf teams,
they have to walk the top nine.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
They do.
But, that's it.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
They just have to walk the top number when they
determine they have to walk thetop nine.
But in between holes they canbe shuttled.
Yeah just like PJ.
But now there's this guy.
He's probably in his fiftiesnow.
Ever since I worked up there Iworked up there since I was like
15, worked there for about 15years that dude would always
show up and he would never get acart and he would walk all 18.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Every day I walked the exercise.
It's all the extra, as you needthat, basically why I did it.
But he and he would shoot underparry every time.
I was like aren't you killedout?
He's like yeah, but I love it.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Yeah, well, I mean, I guess, if you're gonna, if
you're gonna work out anyway,like if he's gonna work out
anyway, go play golf and you canwalk.
All those you can walk, what isit?
I mean, I guess that, how manymiles?
That is?
That's 18 holes.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
All over there.
That's a lot.
Yeah, I mean especially goingup and down the incline.
Yeah, and I've always said it,though I was like you know, I
love baseball, everything else,but If you really want to look
at athletes that are in shape,80% of athletes are golfers that
are in the most peak.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Oh yeah, yeah, it's like a bit of a top of it, you
don't?
Speaker 3 (12:53):
know it by looking at them.
Yeah, they're always likedressed up for free athletes.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Yeah they're all freak athletes.
Yeah they could done.
They could have done any sportthey wanted to.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
Exactly.
It's crazy to think about.
What do you think like Tigersback gets messed up so much?
Speaker 1 (13:08):
right, because he's working out constantly.
Yeah, he's constantly trying toget.
I was trying to get that swingback anyway.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Well, I tell you what he needs to quit changing the
swing then true, how many piecesof equipment did you crash?
Crash wreck, I mean, I guessnot crash Of them 90% of them,
I'm trying to think because themowers are not like no mowers my
(13:36):
favorite when I ever crashed,though, was like my rookie year,
and that was before, like theyhad.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
We're first rookie year.
People should call it rookieyear more.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
That was before, like they had paved the main road,
going on.
Oh yeah so like I was in one ofthose six will gators, the
little diesel six will, yeah,like they fly dude and I was
going up another story thezigzag path.
Well, when you go up it, no cardis supposed to be allowed to go
(14:11):
down.
They're supposed to take thatground road down, and there was
a golfer that was drunk as helland he was zooming down it while
I was going up.
Oh, and it was.
Either I crashed into thismember and get in trouble, or
It'd be much worse to hit him.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
So I crash it into the side of the, the rock wall
and there's a little barrier.
Hit the barrier and I was likewe're good.
Also the other guy was tellingme no, you're not good.
I was like why?
And I went to pull out and alsoI heard a pop look down and my
tire is rolling back down thehill.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
You five more.
This is a six wheel.
It was a six wheel.
You got five more wheels.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
I got five more but it was the steering tire.
I think you made that negativeone.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
So it was really like you, would got a lot more
trouble inside.
Yeah, I feel like I would seemslike you made the right call.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
But yeah, I've, basically I've run over wrecked
or hit something with every ithappens.
It happens up there.
You're a farm out and you hitrocks, you hit wall and like the
work is or we learn and golfcart.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Yeah, you are yeah, the work is so like Monotonous,
though, just like the shityou're doing, all the time Doing
the same thing over and over,and it's like.
You got, you gotta get in someshit like oh, yeah, like and
it's not like cool that you haveto rate the sand.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
That was like yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
I'd quit.
I think that would be my like.
That's the thing I would neverdo the back.
Did you break the sand?
No, I hate saying anyways, am Igonna?
I did not write the sand.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
What's worse than raking the sand is having to be,
on weed eater patrol to likecut the angles around the sand
pits.
We're like all that grass isgrowing up around it.
Yeah and if you're not payingattention, you're gonna get a
face full of sand.
Yeah it's like it's from thatweed eater.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
That's the fucking that has to be the worst too.
Like the weed, eating isliteral.
Literal obstacles put there onpurpose to complicate things but
, that course has more hazardsthan any course ever.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Oh yeah, so I know people that Haven't been around
Raven Rock Won't know this.
But like the old driving range,Mm-hmm.
So if you were a low man, ifyou were a new guy, you didn't
touch equipment.
You were weeding Mm-hmm.
Once a year they would task allthe new guys to weed, eat that
(16:48):
whole entire hillside.
Oh, the drive the driving rangeall the way up to the tree line
.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
That's the worst, no.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Yeah, I mean it was awful and but it was funny too
because, like, once you get outof that area where you don't
have to weedy, you can watchthem go through where you went
through.
Yeah, so you, you get to likewitness them screaming when they
find a copperhead, or they, orlike there there's a dough
bedded down and in.
Jumps up and they start rollingdown the hill because it scared
(17:16):
them.
You know stuff like that.
So you're like, hey, I've beenthere, seen that guys.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Yeah, that's a big heel, that's a lot of that's a
lot of weeds.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
It is before, like all the model bushes.
Yeah, like it was just straightweeds all the way up to 300
yard.
Yeah, all the way up there.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Well, I Know, when you were there, um, anytime I
seen you, you were intosomething literally like or be
like pictures to see me.
Pictures of you, like in a hole.
They just happen to be in themiddle of the golf course or
catching a snake.
The All those like ponds atfishing and we're out like,
(17:58):
aren't they all?
Speaker 3 (17:58):
oh yeah, dude, yeah so much fish yeah so there was
small mouth and tons of golfballs.
Yeah, there was actually acompany that would come out and
they would rate the ponds andSell them back to yeah, the golf
course, and they would do itfor like two or three days.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Set the scoop dive.
That's a hell of a business.
That is a great business plan,but they would out.
You want them.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
They would get like they would pull out 20 and 30
thousand, yeah, sure, at a time.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Make five the instance of all.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
I mean like for a while, though.
That's probably five thousand.
Those are mine.
Me to everything, everything inthe wind, the water, everything
the water all the time.
What's the weirdest thingthat's ever happened on the golf
course to you?
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Mmm, weird thing probably be the dog wrecking the
cart into the pond.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
What excuse me?
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Yeah, you heard me right.
We had a member there.
He, I don't.
I can never pronounce thisbreed of dog right Walmart or
Womb around yeah, that thingyeah.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
I don't even fucking know.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
We'll Google it and show it to you.
Google it.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Google it warm and writer.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
I can never say I'm a writer Wommer.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Anyway, what the fuck ?
Speaker 3 (19:22):
So this dog a while more honor.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
It's supposed to look like we just got a wiener I.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Want to call it wiener.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Okay, we call it.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
I mean it looks like this thing that thing.
Oh, okay, okay, it's reallypretty so it is they're gorgeous
, great podcasting and you knowthey're supposed to be like
super sleek, super muscular.
Yeah dude, this thing wasProbably about a hundred pounds
overweight.
Look like a deer tick with alittle head, just big ol fat
(19:51):
little legs.
And this member where hebrought it every day it's cool
dog, loved everybody.
But you get to hole number 12.
So, with hole number 12, yourT-boxes are elevated and you hit
over a pond into a Fairway andthen the fairway is elevated the
(20:12):
opposite way, so you'rebasically parked at an angle
down hill and he, and at thebottom of the hill is the pond
so he got out and Told the dogto stay.
When he told the dog to stay,it's.
It sat there for a second he hehit his tee shop.
(20:32):
When he hit his tee shot heheard the click of the emergency
brake and that dog had actuallyhit the gas pedal.
Oh cute and it rolled all theway down the hill and the dog
waited till the last second,jumped out right before it hit
the pond.
Ha ha nice and it destroyed thecar, of course.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
So once it destroyed the car, they asked me to go
down there and get it.
They're like, yeah, you're good.
The dog, no oh okay.
Yeah, he's fine, he jumped outright now.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
We jumped out.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Yeah, he jumped out.
He knew what he was doing,though he knew what he was doing
and um, it was just funnybecause they're like well, let's
get in there and no one want toget in the pond, I was like
it's a pond, it's water.
Yeah so I went in, got in thegarden, the pond, I got to the.
The car was wrapping the chainaround it and all of a sudden I
heard our mechanic shepherd.
(21:22):
Rest in peace rip.
Love you, brother.
He started he always called mejunior.
I Don't know why he just hadthe hint.
I could hear him.
I can still hear him till thisday doing it.
He's gone, jeremy.
Watch out, watch out.
And I was like what?
I looked and the the groundcame out from under the cart and
it started sinking and I wasinside the cart trying to wrap
(21:44):
it.
So you see me trying to get outof the cart and it's sinking all
the way down.
All I could see was like thetop of the car.
Then you can see the the seatfloating up because it came on
him Shepard being shepherd, he'sjust it, he was like grab grab
the seat.
It's a flotation.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
So do you lose the cart?
Speaker 3 (22:06):
we got it out, it never worked again.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
I was gonna say it's non-function ever worked again
like no it was a gas or electric.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
That one was Electric yeah, they moved to electric
cars.
I always prefer gas cars.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
They're faster.
Yeah, yeah, louder.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Yeah, I'm one of the reasons why they moved to
electric.
Because they were cuz you gotbecause we figured out how to Go
have you drifting the golfcarts everywhere?
Speaker 1 (22:34):
I would listen if.
If it rained just a little bitin the morning, yeah just
perfect enough where it wasn'ttoo muddy you can slide them.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Man, we would go down a fairway as fast as we can,
and then we would just hit theCuz.
I mean if you fuck the grass up, you can fix it 360s all the
way down.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
That's beautiful, that's fun, though I'm not an
accident.
Yeah, you've done an accident.
But you know, you just hadstuff like that happen all the
time and then going golfing withyou was Experience too, because
you had like access toeverything she's got.
Not, it's good, let's go tothis.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
No, it's fine.
We don't have to wait anywhereor we're gonna cart you remember
the big force fire?
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Yeah, I was a part of trying to save the golf course
for gay during that.
Oh yeah because all the grasshad already went dormant.
So when it went dormant itturned yellow.
Yeah, of course.
Yeah it's just like leaves thatfall turned yellow.
It's dead at this point.
And then you had fire comingfrom both sides of the hill and
(23:39):
we were trying to keep it wet aspossible.
I mean putting gallons andgallons on that dormant grass,
because if it would have hitthat grass, yeah, it's fucking
lead everything.
Yeah, it would.
Just it would look like firebrimstone I.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Never really thought about a golf course been on fire
, I guess.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Just goes up and flames.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I was thinking about things that Businesses that
burned down.
I wouldn't think, which isironic since the recently the
clubhouse burnt down.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
Yeah, yeah, you know work down years but the
clubhouse burnt down so thatrestaurant and clubhouse when
the force fire hit, it was sohot that there was a four-inch
Water line that was going allthe way down to the main water
Access.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
It went all the way down into almost Dunham and the
water was or the.
The fire was so hot that whenit.
You know finally went out.
We went to look for that lineand you know it's a big
thick-ass.
Four inch.
And it's probably like half aninch inch thick.
It was deduced reduced, reduceddown to powder Like oh fuck was
(24:51):
nothing left of it, literallynothing.
They were like go go chase thatline.
I was like what line there?
There's not a line left.
Yeah it was like 300 foot of itgone.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
So we have a segment that we recorded.
A buddy stopped by.
It's just me and him, willie.
He was a.
You know Willie, he's a, he'slike a listener and he's one of.
He was one of our patrons forforever there and he's been with
us.
So he stopped by and he'sactually an electrician.
(25:26):
So we talked about that.
I'm gonna cut to that me andhim in studio recording there
and then we'll be right back.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
My problem is like I listened to two podcasts All
right, you all and the Joe Roganwhen everybody good on
someone's gonna.
And Joe Rogan has like I mean,he's like three and four hours
long.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Yeah, he does those, he does the segments, so that
are great.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Yeah, cut like his YouTube and the tick-tock and
stuff is just cuts of it, whichare great, and like I'll sit and
listen to it and it can last afull week, yeah, and then you're
all, I mess up and I listen toit, like on Monday on my way to
work, and then I'd like.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
I can quit today.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Maybe it's Quit my job.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
It's ironic because my new job I have a paid lunch,
oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
I'm sorry, so I'm paid for everything,
everything's paid.
Anyway, you're getting paidright now, right yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:23):
that's awesome.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Uh, I will say the last person that I quit my job
for was you.
Oh, oh, really, yeah, he wasthe last person I quit from.
Really, I've turned in mynotice like four times at my
current will but yeah, it's uh,and I went the opposite
direction, like I should noteven be on here because I've got
(26:44):
like five jobs now you got youdoing everything.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Well, no, yeah, but you don't, um, you don't Hate
all that shit.
No, right, no.
So I mean because you, youbecame an electrician later in
life.
Mm-hmm right and you reallyenjoy.
That.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Well, I Failing to it like.
So.
My dad lived down there when.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
I was down there.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
He's like you got to come live with me.
Like I put you through schooland everything.
I was like, okay, and so hesaid, well, you're gonna work
with me over the summer.
And so I went down there and hehad me working with him.
He's like, hey, there's hisclasses.
It's like math and I've alwaysbeen like a math nerd, which is
weird.
But he's like no to theseclasses and see if you like them
.
And I went.
I was like yeah, they're prettycool.
(27:27):
And then he's like hey, we havea job out at UK but you have to
be in the apprenticeship to beon it because it's like a
prevailing wage job.
I was like I don't, I don'twant to do four years of this.
And he said here's the payscale and at 18 I went because I
was making like $7 when I wasworking at the gas station right
.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I started there I was making like nine and that wild
no, blow your mind that we madethat little money, yeah, and now
people are still able to makethat little money.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Is that?
What is that?
What they still pay?
Minimum wage is still seven 25ain't that fucking crazy.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
That blows my mind, dude.
That's, that's nuts to me tothink that, like no way I could
make it on that Well.
I mean you know you can doanything on that.
I can't pay a quarter of mybills, right?
Speaker 2 (28:09):
And.
But he showed me this scale andit was like, as an 18 year old,
on this job I was gonna bemaking $22 an hour.
Yeah, I'm an electrician into.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
It sounds great.
This is what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
But my whole thing like it worked out because I was
gonna go to it to take and yeah.
That fucking does that existanymore.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
No, no, that shit collapsed right.
All those did like Spensirianand them and like all that shit
Was.
Did they get discredited it?
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Yeah, like it.
Either government just come inone day and was like you're all
done and shut them down?
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Do they discredit the Diplomins now?
Speaker 2 (28:46):
I Don't know about, like the diplomas people I but
but if you come in with a itdetect diploma, somebody's
probably gonna laugh you out ofthe building.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Yeah, cuz it's not like.
I know I have a buddy who's gothis got discredited, like, for
he went to like a school, likean online school or whatever and
ended up not being legit orwhatever they they were like
turns out, you don't get adiploma.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Yeah, and I mean most of those places like Colleges
are weird because you can try todo yeah, you can get like
almost a degree at like UK, andthen you try to go to like Ohio
State and I like yeah, and halfof these don't work and so you
have to go.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
Yeah, credits for that.
I went to Southeast.
I went to community college forTwo years for ping pong.
Yeah, I played so much pingpong.
I got pretty good, though, likeI'm not bad at ping pong.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Yeah, I've never played it cuz I never went to
college.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
So Never got a chance to.
What sucked is like theteachers play to.
So, like you'd be, you'd beplaying and they'd be like, uh,
you look for like for class?
I was like, yeah, but it's fine, so I'm here with the teachers
right, I'm here with theprofessor, I'm playing ping pong
with my professor.
It feels like I'm gonna be lateanyway, so I'm the last person
(30:00):
you quit?
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Yes, you are.
That's why maybe that's why Ihad such a draw under this.
Did you just walk out?
No, I come in.
And I was like, hey, I got ajob in Legsington.
And you're like, oh, that'scool If it don't work out.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Oh, I couldn't remember, if you like, if you
just didn't come back.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
I didn't give it two weeks because it was like a
Wednesday and my dad was likeyou can start Monday?
Speaker 1 (30:26):
and I was like yeah, fuck it, I don't tell him no.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
So I was just like I guess I'm telling dusty I'm done
.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Yeah, man, that's all I'm such a blur.
For me, the gas station dayswere like.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
That's 15 and a half years ago.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
It's ancient and it was still like I don't even.
It blows my mind that I wasable to work, because I can't
even fucking imagine workingmidnights now.
But like that blows my mind,this is like.
I worked midnights for forever,like like midnight to 8 am.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Yeah.
I can't even imagine that now Idid it like while I was still
in high school, because theywere somebody quit and I think
y'all had me work some midnight.
She is like I was working andthen going straight to school.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Do not doubt, we did that.
Yeah, I was 18.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
So it was fine, but it was.
I remember the one night likeyou're all's whole shit dick.
Demon Stories yeah.
I was working and I can'tremember who is coming in the
next morning, but like the coalCrowd come through and I went to
clean and I went in thebathroom and like there was just
a pile of shit in the urinaland I just walked out.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
Yeah, I don't get paid enough.
I'm not cleaning that, that wetalked about that.
Gas station bathrooms, man, aredifferent.
Yeah, station bathrooms arelike People shit up the walls
and like like what are peopledoing in the bathroom?
Speaker 2 (31:43):
How many people carry sharpies around with them?
Speaker 1 (31:46):
That's what I always think.
That is just like are theykeeping a sharpie in my bathroom
?
Like is there a sharpiesomewhere hidden in my bathroom
that I don't know?
Speaker 2 (31:52):
is in here.
No, those people.
They wake up and they put ontheir like rebel flag underwear
and they put their sharpie intheir pocket Because I gotta go
be racist somewhere.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Yeah, there's so much shit, why sake had to erase off
the walls there.
It was just like oh, can't evenuse this bathroom until
somebody gets rid of thatBleaching it off the walls.
I've never I don't know if I'veever had a sharpie in a
bathroom.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
I mean I have, but we , we, we use sharpies like
marker, condit and stuff.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
It's you, it's fucking, it's electric
Electricians.
Paint shit on what.
That is true.
Everything's in a charcoalpencil on the wall, like we know
who did that shit but like theonly other bathroom story.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
I was in Bowling Green working on a job out there
and I was in the bathroom andthis kid walks in and he's like
yanking on the door and I'm likethere's someone in here, dude,
and he's just, he makes a noisethat I don't even know how to
replicate, but then you just seeshit fall on the floor.
Oh my god, his pants didn'tcome down, like he just shit on
(33:04):
the floor.
And then he ran over to likewhere the sink in the urinal was
and then he ran out.
So he ran out with shit and Ijust that.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
That makes me so nervous, because he was
definitely just a oh man.
That stresses me out.
Yeah right, little kids aregross never touch the kids hands
.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
Well, you know I say kid, but like he could have been
like.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
I mean, like I always said, if you say you didn't, if
you don't shit on yourself,here live.
You've never shit on yourself.
Yeah, you've definitely donethat.
What's, um, what's the worstjob you ever had?
Are you gonna say the gasstation?
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Yeah, the gas station I had to.
Real dick of a manager.
No, virginia, honestly like our, our company, like I've worked
in a bunch of different areas ofours, so like the one, that
made me want to quit my job Wasit wasn't really the job itself,
it was the people I was workingfor and it gets most of the
(34:05):
time.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
That's what we always say is.
Most of the time it's like ifyou're working with, like
factory work Is the worst kindof work, right, but all those
people are like together andlike friends, right, and but
like are the people that manageslike one of our divisions?
Speaker 2 (34:21):
They're just digs like, yeah, they feel like
they're better than everyoneelse.
And I was like In my second orthird year in this, so I was
still.
I knew nothing, but I was, Iwas running work on their side,
yeah, but they still treated melike I was just some hillbilly
who didn't know anything and andit's always.
You're always gonna get thatwhen you go somewhere and then
(34:42):
later on, like I quit theirdivision later on I ended up
back in it and I was runninglike full-on.
I had a service truck and I'veran a full job.
That Bowling Green job was justme Uh-huh.

Luckily I have a group of friends at work the
people I sit around where I'llhave.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
We're all lock-minded , so yeah, you got to kind of
bait somebody else into sayingsomething to see how many times
they can do it.

And you know he can't, you knowI mean he can't help a lot of
stuff.
(37:59):
But right but it got likedestroyed because it was like I
Said to start and pay and it wasjust like you know drug test
and and it was like you knowwhatever, how many, ever hours a
week or whatever, and it waslike you got to work 50 hours a
week for $12 an hour and youcan't go home and smoke a joint.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
Yeah, so I can't be high and I have to work for the
history.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Yeah, it's pretty tough.
I don't have to cut that, notdecided you.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
Didn't say no names and we didn't say the name of
the sawmills.
I think you're good.
Yeah, it's just a sawmill, butnot the one here in Kansas.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
Yeah, sawmilling.
Speaker 2 (38:38):

Nebraska.
Well, um, it's good having youon.
I'm glad you stopped by, Uh-huhit's been fun, man.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Uh, I will say that this podcast is like Exactly my
humor.
Yeah and so like y'all gottaget more.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
We're gonna have you on for a full episode with
everybody here.
Mm-hmm and that's the plan.
So when we have some more timeor we can call, we can do a call
.
It's funny because we justfigured out.
We were like, uh, had the thesystem for a while and just
figured out like I knew we couldcall because we did some before
.
But like, did you listen to theepisode with the live calls?
Yeah, that's the first timewe've done live calls.
We had one with the calliansbut they weren't live.
(39:25):
It was like recorded calls butthat it.
That episode was the first onewith live calls and it worked
pretty good.
It flowed pretty good and wewere worried it wouldn't but it
turned out pretty good yeah,y'all had the girls.
Yeah, the girls were here and wecalled the boys from there.
That was a.
That was a fun episode.
I kept thinking it was like ahappy end of massage parlor.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
The more y'all talk, you never said what the business
man?
Speaker 1 (39:45):
It's funny because when she got here she was like
we can't, we can't reallynecessarily discuss what we do
because it's protected by like.
I mean the business they run isprotected by, like, alcohol and
beverage, mm-hmm.
So they can't discuss aboutreally we can't they can't
(40:07):
discuss about really what it is.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
I even went on Google Maps and I was like what is
this business?
So it got it got wild.
Speaker 1 (40:14):
It got kind of wild.
They can't even advertise likethey can't.
There's no, they can'tadvertise.
It also couldn't because itcouldn't say the name of the
business either.
Speaker 2 (40:20):
It's a shitty business model.
If you can't advertise it, Idon't know man.
Speaker 1 (40:24):
Because what it is they provide is, you know,
needed.
But that was the whole thingwas.
So we kind of had to improvisefrom there and we didn't.
We ended up in a good showanyway, but we cut a lot of
stuff.
We cut a lot of stuff, yeah,which was entertaining.
But yeah, we'll have you on fora full episode and we'll call
(40:45):

about keeping the ground,keeping the ground.
Speaker 3 (43:06):
Keeping the ground and he braided.
Speaker 1 (43:09):

Come back with us on the ground.
Keeper, you had another storyfor us about the ground.
Speaker 3 (43:15):

Speaker 1 (43:16):
I'm trying to think which one you literally just
said it before we went to break.
Speaker 3 (43:20):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (43:20):
About supergater.
Speaker 3 (43:22):
Yeah yeah, that goes back to me.
We were talking about stealingthe beers.
Yeah, so One tournament, we wedid the same thing we always do.
Before you know we find thebeers.
The way they do it is.
Usually they'll put the thecoolers down and then they'll
(43:43):
put on the bottom of the coolers.
The beer on the top of thecooler is your Pepsi and Coke
products.
Sure so Whether we knew or not,if they had alcohol, we would
go basically fishing.
Beer and we hit the mother loadthat day.
There was beer a lot of his beer, a lot of it, and and you know
(44:04):
it was just like Dusty saidearlier about the whole he would
get text from me at like 11o'clock and I'd be already
blitzed this one day.
You know, usually with thetournament, once the tournament
starts you're done for the day,like if there's any kind of
maintenance on the equipment,you can do that to finish out
(44:25):
your hours or you can go home.
Yeah, so we were trying to bestraight-faced going back in the
garage Because it was like oneo'clock.
Maybe by then we had already.
There was a spot on the golfcourse.
It was a back lot that no onereally could get to except us
and, like you know, we we wentback.
(44:45):
There used to be where I huntedat we went, we went back there
and killed a bunch of thosebeers.
Speaker 1 (44:51):
And here's a man we hid, we hid and we hid, we hid
and drank all the beer.
We drank all the beers, gotback, got back to the they good
old maintenance building and wewere trying to.
Speaker 3 (45:02):
Basically, at the end of the day, you're trying to
park all the equipment back inand it's like Tetris, oh yeah,
because it don't fit really,yeah.
So if you ever think about likePOV Tetris, that's us, but then
times it by a hundred withdifficulty, yeah, if, like you,
were looking overhead, it wouldlook like a jigsaw, but look
like one of those.
Speaker 1 (45:25):
Yeah, like the only you can figure it out.
Speaker 3 (45:26):
Yeah, and we were drunk little puzzles, so they
were trying to get us toeverything together and one of
the Guys that I worked realclose with.
They're like we need to get thesupergator, which the
supergator is just like asix-wheel gator, but I think
it's like a six-wheel gator.
It's just like a six-wheelgator, but it's a big diesel
motor, it's four-wheel drive, itdoesn't have six tires, it's
(45:49):
got four tires and it'sbasically like the size of a box
truck.
It'll go fucking anywhere and doyeah, and it's got dump bed on
it.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (45:57):
I think ever it's five speed and we were like
that's the last piece ofequipment we need to move and it
was kind of like blocking awayto get another piece in and I
was like hey, so and so go ahead.
And we got to get thisequipment in and he's like
alright.
And before we could sayanything, the dude that I worked
closely was like I got it.
(46:18):
I said, oh shit, before I coulddo anything, he had already
started up, put it what hethought Was in first gear to go
forward, and he threw it inreverse and slammed on the gas
and, like Went right through thewall, almost Took a chip out of
the doorway rip the wholefucking thing yeah and then the
(46:40):
whole time after that he wastrying to play cool and can't
look.
Right, I see like you're drunk,I'm not drunk, I'm not the one
that wrecked it.
Speaker 1 (46:47):
We're all fucking sober, leave us alone.
Speaker 3 (46:49):
He's like I was getting one team.
What are you?
Speaker 1 (46:53):
