nothing like a bombastic convoy to feel like a big man

[@TackleTheDog]

A custom crew i worked on that had green pea viners had a hodge-podge of good and bad machines. I was lucky and ended up in the best of the best so my life was good (until it wasn’t when some parts started self destructing and catching on fire) and some of the oldest ones couldnt really break 18mph so they’d usually end up falling back until we hit a corner. Was good though, in a good crop i’d get 5000lbs of nice peas in about 10 mins which means that there is a LOT of peas moved in a 12 hour shift. Plugged the plant once, so we had to wait a couple hours so they could process them all. Lets just say my boss who is not easily impressed was pretty impressed at our crew 😂
