Weekly post

I worked 40 hours this week and 461.75 this quarter. I learned how frustrating brakes can be on a forklift. I had to pull the hubs/drums and file a bevel on the brake shoes so that they would stop grabbing. The shoes had worn down past the factory bevel and would lock up the brakes even with a light foot (Sending whatever pallet sliding off the forks = $$$). The boss was quite impressed that I was able to figure out how to fix it without replacing any parts (To make a long story short... I just got a pay raise)
