Oh and before that we had to go collect cash from an atm that was hit. Serviced it a day before. Scanned the hell out of that whole parking lot incase the criminals needed us/our access to complete the robbery attempt.

Don't forget to set the parking brake kids.
OOPS
Last thing I did leaving the cab, and first thing I checked when entering the cab. ALWAYS.
And screw up the rest of your day.
Working at Ft. Devens, Mass. guess? 15yrs back? (Ft. Devens was an Army Test Range in WWI...)
They tore down a few houses......
Lifted a slab of concrete, with the track hoe, at the foot of the front steps of one of the homes...
What did they find?
An ANTI TANK MINE! Some poor slob, and his FAMILY, had been going up that sidewalk for over 80yrs!!
Of course, one can, most times......walk right over an anti tank mine.....
But? To lift that slab with the track hoe? And it not detonate? (bet the Operator needed to change his pokeys!!)....
The Bomb Squad removed it. Reported back that the "fuse" was in "terrible condition"...
Only by the Grace of God...that it had not detonated!
It had been buried there since the 1920's!
They found all kinds of nasty stuff...About once or twice a week, the job was shut down due to "finding stuff"...
Several PHOSGENE GAS shells. Dozens of Mustard Gas shells. All types of artillery....you name it...
