This month 31 years ago I started doing the fire extinguishers at the TXI Cement plant in Midlothian once a month . 2 Years later I started doing their sister plant in New Braunfels . After working for other extinguisher comanysThey always stuck by me . In 1998 I started my own company and after selling a few years ago to another big aggregate company they have stuck by us . I just thought about this . it is a LOT of monthly inspections LOL
May your wiener schnitzel always stay above your lederhosein.

You should have waved when you came through Midlothian.
I'm glad there are wine drinkers in this world ..... it saves more beer for the rest of us. Hopper

Yeah, Martin Marietta is one of my biggest customers. I already did the TXI and a lot of Hanson sites, now it's up to about 260 state wide.

Fish the ponds out there if you ever get a chance. The warm water inlet on the west side of the main pond and a red lipless ripped out of the grass on the north side of the southern most pond are good spots in the winter. Congrats on having a customer stick with you. Sounds like you do a hell of a job.

What does that inspection look like, checking for green on the little meter, then spraying it in the air a few times and dropping an invoice?

Haha. All but the spraying. Not much to the monthly inspection.
It’s amazing what companies will pay for instead of having their own personnel do the work. I too have several customer that have us do the monthly inspection.

Nothing to it DI . At one of our Hanson plants near Columbus .Ride the Gator as far as you can , then walk in mud up to your butt . Climb up on a greasy dragline , check all the extinguishers and hope one does not need to be recharged . Do that all day long LOL

I wonder if the Taco Bell forums post about me I checked, and NO they don't! Sorry.
Family is everything! Life is precious. We don’t have forever. We have now. This moment. We can choose to love our lives now.

Funny when people get scared of OSHA. OSHA is kids stuff compared to MSHA.
