Fatty. Before I retired we worked a storm job in Dallas. I never anything like it in my life. Entire neighborhoods full of Mexicans with 20 to 40 people in each house. So many cars parked EVERYWHERE that we could not get our equipment in there. Cars parked everywhere and I mean absolutely EVERYWHERE!
Then after I retired I continued working on storm restoration with a contractor. Hauling equipment and materials into Louisiana, south Mississippi and Florida. I saw apartments, houses and trailer parks absolutely packed with people. It was worse than anything I saw overseas in combat areas. I thought packing 20 Marines into a SwaHut was bad, but that wasn’t even close to what I saw in Southern Louisiana or Dallas.


I hate making a good first impression. There’s no way I can keep that shit up.
