I’m not looking forward to those days. At the end of the workday my legs always hurt so I go home and relax and they start to feel better usually. I guess it’s from being on the floor walking around all day with heavy boots and everything like that. I also get laughed at for using knee pads but I told my coworkers one day you are going to look back at me and think man why didn’t I save my knees and wear the knee pads. My boss has calcium deposits on his knee caps from having his knees on the floor all these years. We have at least one shop around here that is old school and uses no lifts at all for anything. Only Jack and Jack stands I don’t see how they can do it. Getting on the ground and getting up isn’t an issue for me but let me tell you I’ve worked and been in a shop going on 5 years now between school and work and it is such a luxury and convenience to have a lift. Unfortunately I don’t have one at home but still do a lot of work there.
