Otherwise you only put on a jacket when they turned the air up too high and you only knew the sun had set because it was ever so slightly dimmer in the main dome.

But I guess if you want to do something enough, you get used to the conditions...eventually.

But I only carry that about 150 yards and down a flight of stairs to the truck at the beginning of my shift and back up at the end of my shift. But I do lift a 60 lb spool of cable in and out of the truck several times a day.

I was only thinking about the big one going from TTC to the MK.
