I don't know about "life on the line" but, I'm a construction heavy equipment operator/mechanic. That includes the big trucks too. Of course that's during the "green" season up here. We also have a "white" season, as I live in the Great lakes snowbelt region. So in the "white" season, we do snow and ice management. Not driveways either, I mean full size malls and the like, along with subbing out to the county for a lot of lesser roads and highways. I'm a three county supervisor, although you couldn't tell. I"m a "hands on" kinda guy, and along with my supervisory tasks, I'll still climb into a tri-axel Mack with front, left, and right blades and a 25 ton saltbox on the back and take care of a few hundred miles of highway, or run a Cat 500 wheel loader with a 20 foot snow pusher and clear a couple thousand acre shopping mall. It makes no difference to me. I'm fully capable of doing either and everything in between. "Life on the line" would be more like what Kal does.
