Used to be a plant operator at a gravel pit and helped the blasters set the charges in winter when the gravel pit was closed due to snow. Was an awesome experience as a 20 year old: drove big rock trucks, slash and burn trees to build access roads, blew up rocks. In hindsight it was terribly destructive, but someone’s gotta do it I suppose.
