thanks to the nice wage being a union operator a honest man can make a good living for his family. That is if your working. One thing I find funny though is that the union is all about equality and fairness for everybody when its only friends and family that get the fairness and equality when the rest of the people that dont know anyone have to get 2nd best.
Germany,openly torturing and murdering,is a disgrace to humanity.See the generation born between 1930 and 1945.Most of them grew up with the"knowledge"to be the Masterrace,have the right to live at the expence of others.When they had to begin working in the 1950s,Germany started importing foreign workers,allowing them to stay the masterrace.They silenced the generation of their parents about ww2 crimes and persecuted the generation of their children into complete servitude to their state.
All these Union haters,learn the facts and your history. Unions help people earn a decent wage that they can live on and raise a family WHY in the Fuck is that so wrong. Everybody on this god forsaken planet wants to make more money and have a better life.As far as the lazy part which is pure BULLSHIT we work are asses off just as much as the non union.
Union,,Lazy! BS I've turned 215 loads per 10 hour day in a 51. that was average for the crew. 625 operator could barely keep up. dozers always had a scraper in front of them and 3 waiting. 2 blades taking care of haul roads and finishing slopes. grade setters busted their butts trying to keep up with 12 651's filling in the same narrow area. We bust our arses earning every penny we make. Yes, I made $32 per hour operating a finish blade with GPS.
I've worked union and non union. Unions did get the high wages, benefits, and safe working conditions for all workers. Non union people enjoy all that without ever having to fight for it. Employers will make it good for workers if they will keep the unions out. We need strong unions for workers.
yo union boy . It's also the unions that drive prices up where no one can afford anything .Unions are for lazzzzyyyyy worthless guys who have gotten fired from non-union companies. Period....
"You are wrong, operators earn more than 30.00 per hour. No lazy union men, they will be run off. With pension,ins., dental, 401K, prescription, MRA,
and vac fund it is forty five $. hourly. "
I was referring to a posting that as I recall, stated "With that equipment sitting there, must be "UNION".I am anything but "pro company". Not being in the construction business, I only guessed what the hourly wage would be. Sorry if you misunderstood me.
You can believe what you want, but I am getting tired of "Union Bashers". They are people who take the paid vacations, floating holidays, HEALTH INSURANCE, decent wages and working conditions and never pay one cent in dues, They are "Freeloaders" and parasites. I've worked in both union & non union industries and lazy people are on both sides. That's my opinion, Be nice to me if you reply just like I was with you. Contrary to popular belief most union people do not earn $30.00 an hour.
Yeah I know what you mean, I am an apprentice operator and it seem like the non union operators look down on us. And your right I only make 22.75 but i havent topped out yet.
@strobx1 You are wrong, operators earn more than 30.00 per hour. No lazy union men, they will be run off. With pension,ins., dental, 401K, prescription, MRA,
Even twin engine scrapers need a push in a wet or sandy cut. Sure it's possible to try to load in sand or mud but you're not getting a full load. I used to run 627G's with D8's for push dozers. Very efficient combination.
I wonder if Caterpillar makes scrapers larger than the 657 series? Larger scrapers that are at least 50% taller, 50% wider, and 50% longer than the Caterpillar 657's shown here are needed in the larger strip mines and quarries around the world.
Caterpillar used to make a scraper even larger than the 657 many years ago--the 666B. Sadly, Caterpillar discontinued production of the 666B in 1979 and had no similar model in the works since. It would be nice if Caterpillar resurrected the 666B twin-engined scraper.
But, sadly, Caterpillar discontinued the 660 series and 666 series in 1979 despite the 666B being widely regarded as 'the best scraper ever made'. A few samples of the 660 and 666 still exist in running condition and, hopefully, Caterpillar can see fit to restore some 660's and 666's to like-new condition and display them in museums or reuse them in quarries, mines, oil sands, and construction projects. The 666 series can easily outwork the 657 series hands down.
@rocklinrebel71 Yes, Caterpillar's 660- and 666- 'triple 6' series scrapers were the biggest scrapers Caterpillar made. However, the biggest scraper ever was the LeTourneau LT-360 scraper which could heap 216 cubic yards in its 3 bowls. The LT-360 was a major player in the construction of the Interstate Highway System in the 1960's. The LeTourneau LT-360 was dropped about 1968 due to reliability issues. Caterpillar has no plans to resurrect its 660- or 666-series scrapers anytime soon.
You must be working in sand or you must take ten mins to load the bowl half full. Loading time in heavy clay been pushed loaded is 30 to 60 seconds with the clay compasted in the bowl giving max load. Scrapers will not load them self even when a ripper has been put through the ground. All scrapers in UK, Ireland and France are push loaded.
you cant just declare a max load time. all dirt everywhere is different. Would load time not be affected if the ground were frozen or perhaps wet or silty? Scrapers will load themselves depending on the material and the direction of your cut. You guys are wasting your time push loading twin engine scrapers anyways. Put a bale and stinger hook on them and push pull. That is how we do it in Canada and we can pushpull through ANYTHING!!!
What the hell is this? A d-10 pushing a 37? My boss would fire both of us if he saw us spinning tracks and dry spinning the tires. Both of those operators should get 2 checks!!!!
If my boss saw me pushing a twin engine scraper he would fire me. U dont have scraper spin his tires with a D-10 behind him. And for god sake its a twin engine too. 2 checks for those loosers!!!!!
wow, and people in edmonton alberta complain about having to run "E"s, lol, Fred flintsotone is probably pissed some one stole his seat while he was out grabbing a woolly mammoth burger
because they dont have any possibly ,just because it has two engines does not mean they can always self load ,if you were the push cat op would you sit and watch them struggle t
@themattster1991 No. Because 651's have over 400 fewer horsepower by not having a rear engine and when the ground is either very hard or very muddy, even twin-engined scrapers need one or two bulldozers to push-load them. Furthermore, I believe properly-functioning 666B's would be better since they would hold more dirt (54 cubic yards heaped) per load than any 657.

One thing I find funny though is that the union is all about equality and fairness for everybody when its only friends and family that get the fairness and equality when the rest of the people that dont know anyone have to get 2nd best.

@strobx1 It's funny how some like to smash UNIONS but fail to realize that UNIONS set the benchmark wage for ALL workers in a particular field.
There are NON-UNION workers that make union wages. WHY?
Because UNION workers set the mark for wages in THAT particular area of work.
If UNIONS did not set a wage benckmark, NO bluecollar worker would recieve a decent wage.
