  • lol, no it was just called the TBM (tunnel boring machine). Most of the jokes were around the graveyard we were tunneling under. We were 65 feet down so no worries of actually boring through any graves.

  • I did all sorts of work on that machine from electrical to building the rail the machine rides on to running the grouting machine that pumped grount to fill in the space behind the cutting head. But it’s operated on board. They are very slow moving machines the fastest I saw it moving was about 80mm per minute.

  • I’m in IT now, but before that, I worked in construction. I operated tunnel boring machines that dug tunnels for underground metros. It was super interesting work, and I’m glad I did it, but it was incredibly tough.

  • I know a guy who's a multimillionaire. He came up from nothing and always had the mindset that if you have to finance it, you can't afford it. A few years ago, he wanted to purchase an apartment complex, but was short by something like $500,000. He tried to get a loan, but the bank wouldn't give him one because he had no credit. Instead, he sold two of his supercars to cover the difference and bought the complex.
