00:01:30
The SnowJobs Podcast
This is the dangerous snow guys doing a snow podcast in the middle of winter, and having to get an episode out every week.

00:01:51
The SnowJobs Podcast

It's been good.
00:01:52
The SnowJobs Podcast
Good. I got this horse raspy thing going on right now. I'm not fully back, but at least no fever for the first time in ah like almost two weeks. I think I was battling a fever there.
00:02:01
RICK JAMES
that's That's really good.
00:02:04
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. So we're, uh, we're rolling. We
Skepticism About Weather Forecasts
00:02:06
The SnowJobs Podcast
are, uh, let's see, we wrapped up one snow event you like the night before last. And now it is actually just started snowing here again.
00:02:15
The SnowJobs Podcast
We're getting six to 10 tonight and should be fun.
00:02:18
RICK JAMES
Six to ten?
00:02:19
The SnowJobs Podcast
That's what they're saying. I mean, that's, that's what they're saying.
00:02:21
RICK JAMES
Who's saying that?
00:02:23
The SnowJobs Podcast
You know, the weathermen, I mean,
00:02:24
RICK JAMES
for Professionals? The doctors?
00:02:33
The SnowJobs Podcast
The doctors are saying.
00:02:33
RICK JAMES
The doc... All the doctors are saying? Are they agreeing?
00:02:38
The SnowJobs Podcast
Um, to different degrees, um, I pay attention most.
00:02:42
RICK JAMES
It's going to smell.
00:02:43
The SnowJobs Podcast
Well, weather pros and Hudson Valley weather, usually when they agree, it's usually a pretty much a lock for us. Uh, the one thing I don't like is they were in full agreement that it was going to be all snow and we were going to, you know, six to 10 somewhere in that range.
00:02:55
RICK JAMES
Mm hmm.
00:02:57
The SnowJobs Podcast
And now Nick poison the well.
00:03:00
RICK JAMES
Oh.
00:03:01
The SnowJobs Podcast
He wants to, you know, be a party pooper and pee on everybody's cornflakes. So now he throw, he threw in a little freezing rain for the last couple hours possible. So as the dry air infiltrates the mesosphere or whatever the hell he calls it.
00:03:10
RICK JAMES
Wow.
00:03:16
The SnowJobs Podcast
I don't know.
00:03:16
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:03:16
The SnowJobs Podcast
It's due to the jet stream. You know how we feel about it.
00:03:18
RICK JAMES
Oh, it's a jet stream, the blue.
00:03:20
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, it's a jet.

00:03:50
RICK JAMES
This last one we had, we had a couple of events this week, surprisingly, but like last, yeah, like last night, it was supposed to be, I, you know, maybe a couple inches and then all of a sudden I get a weather alert.

The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, exactly.
00:04:20
RICK JAMES
It's going to be one.
00:04:22
The SnowJobs Podcast
Exactly.
00:04:22
RICK JAMES
Just stop, stop with the BS. Just stop it.
00:04:25
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. We'll just call it on the low end. Just say zero to one.
00:04:27
RICK JAMES
Yeah. God damn. Just stop.
00:04:30
The SnowJobs Podcast
That's what they do anyway, right? Don't you get zero to one inch every day?
00:04:31
RICK JAMES
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. yeah It's like every day.
00:04:35
The SnowJobs Podcast
Every day, every day.
00:04:36

00:04:41
The SnowJobs Podcast
Oh, good Lord, dude. Good Lord. Yeah, they've been good. They've been good. I was busting Nick's balls a little bit earlier today about the Rob's map. I couldn't make heads or tails on the map.
00:04:51
The SnowJobs Podcast
He put out earlier. He's got the map.
00:04:53
RICK JAMES
It's like a comic book.
00:04:53
The SnowJobs Podcast
Then he's got these little pop up blobs everywhere on the map. I'm like, wait, does that mean that zone is getting that? Or does that mean that zone is good? I'm like, you got to put out a simpler map. yeah
00:05:03
RICK JAMES
It's like a comic book.
00:05:04
The SnowJobs Podcast
got to put out a simpler map, but yeah, but we've been getting hammered.
00:05:04
RICK JAMES
Bubble bubbles here bubbles there. I just use it Wow if you guys you have you've had a busy you call yourselves a fish ah you yeah Are you giving yourself your own nicknames now or what?
00:05:09
The SnowJobs Podcast
We're, uh, we're in the zone as, as they say, what I think they're saying eight events in the next in 14 days. And we've already had a busy winter.
00:05:20
The SnowJobs Podcast
We're doing it, bro. The fish Kizzle getting it done. South central fish kill snow ghetto. What's that?
00:05:33
The SnowJobs Podcast

RICK JAMES
We talked about that on a different show
00:05:34
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. We always joke around about that. Me and the guys, but, uh, yeah, South central fishgills getting hammered with snow again, but now the boys are killing it, man.
00:05:41
RICK JAMES
Hmm. Nice.
00:05:42
The SnowJobs Podcast
I can't, can't say enough about them. They are, uh, they're just like pinatas just keep hitting them and they keep spitting up candy, making it happen.
Challenges in Snow Management
00:05:51
The SnowJobs Podcast
So. couldn't do without, and they're still doing it with quality where we're seeing a lot of quality drop off in our area.
00:05:57
RICK JAMES
Oh, really?
00:05:57
The SnowJobs Podcast
Guys are getting tired. Yeah, you can tell guys are getting tired.
00:06:00
RICK JAMES
Hmm.
00:06:00
The SnowJobs Podcast
They're just, uh, they're getting tired. They cut off the salt. So guys that don't have, I don't have their own supply and you know, can't get it. They're having a little trouble now.
00:06:10
The SnowJobs Podcast
So everybody's a little scared, I think.
00:06:13
RICK JAMES
Oh.
00:06:15
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, it's ah and some guys just aren't showing up. Got a bunch of ah bunch of calls for guys that didn't show up, can't get them on the phone.
00:06:20
RICK JAMES
No shows?
00:06:22
The SnowJobs Podcast
So I think that's ah the difference between a plow guy and a snow management company. oh Yeah, something like that, something like that.
00:06:28
RICK JAMES
Well, still professional, I mean. Yeah.
00:06:33
The SnowJobs Podcast
But yeah, I mean, it's ah it's been good, but you know that's that's the danger of being snow guys doing a snow podcast in the middle of a busy winter is, We got nothing. Like we're just going to get on here and we're going to talk until we, uh, until I got to go plow actually.
00:06:47
The SnowJobs Podcast

00:07:58
The SnowJobs Podcast
Well, we were doing a whole thing, dude. Our original plan, I've been working on this with Andy since last year. Well, our original plan was that, Hey, if we're having a down winter, we could fly in.
00:08:09
The SnowJobs Podcast
And we, me, Sean, Robert, we were all talking about flying in and, uh, maybe getting a push, uh, with Glacier for a couple of days.
00:08:16

00:08:17
RICK JAMES
You guys would have. I had machines for you, too. I had guys gone. It's
00:08:17
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, know we would have too, but
Ongoing Snow Operations
00:08:22
The SnowJobs Podcast
we just, yeah, we just, we couldn't, uh, we couldn't break away from our own snow.
00:08:22
RICK JAMES
been a week, man. It's been a week. what That That would have been epic.
00:08:29
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. That's what we asked Andy. We were planning that since last year. I'm like, yeah, I mean, it looked good.
00:08:33
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:08:33
RICK JAMES
yeah
00:08:34
The SnowJobs Podcast
I kept talking to Nick.
00:08:34
The SnowJobs Podcast
Like, what are we looking at? Like the fifth to the ninth, that period goes, you ain't going nowhere, dude.
00:08:40
RICK JAMES
hu ah Yeah.
00:08:41
The SnowJobs Podcast
You're in it now. So yeah, busy, busy, busy.
00:08:43
RICK JAMES
well. It was all right.
00:08:44
The SnowJobs Podcast
He just told us the other day, he he sees 20 between 20 to 30 inches for us on the ground in the next two weeks till the 20th, till February 20th.
00:08:55
RICK JAMES
I remember whether another weather man saying that while back.
00:08:57
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, I don't, I'm not buying it. I think, I think we're probably close to 10 15, but I mean, we're, if we get 10 tonight, then then 30 is probably probably achievable. Cause I think next Saturday they're already putting out for another banger.
00:09:10
RICK JAMES
Really?
00:09:11
The SnowJobs Podcast
So, and then we got three events this week, I think Tuesday night, Wednesday night, Friday night. I think they're saying a couple of Fargo storms, little, maybe one to three.
00:09:17
RICK JAMES
ah One the threes?
00:09:22
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah.
00:09:23
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:09:24
The SnowJobs Podcast
Dude, I think we've done more one to threes this year than we've done in the previous five years.
00:09:30
RICK JAMES
Really.
00:09:30
The SnowJobs Podcast
We just don't get them anymore. Like we go bigger, go home with these big bangers and we just haven't, we haven't got them this year. Like I think eight or nine, not nine was the biggest one we've had this year, but no, no double digits yet.
00:09:40
RICK JAMES
Hmm.
00:09:45
The SnowJobs Podcast
Nothing like that. But how did the events go?
00:09:48
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:09:49
The SnowJobs Podcast
Any breakages?
00:09:51
RICK JAMES
Um, nothing major, just some issues on a couple of plows and some o-rings and hoses and stuff like that, that, you know, shit happens, but it's just wear and tear, nothing nothing major.
00:10:02
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah.
00:10:04
RICK JAMES
Thank God. No, we won't, you know, had a as somebody saying we hit their car, which he can definitely tell we didn't hit their car.
00:10:15
RICK JAMES
The streets come off the road. his perfect picture off the road hits her car and goes away. Not a loader track, nothing near.
00:10:24
The SnowJobs Podcast
Oh, you got it on camera.
00:10:24
RICK JAMES
Oh, we didn't have a camera. We just went up and walked up to it, took pictures of it. You can tell in the snow, it says like car tracks coming off the highway or off the main road, jumping the sidewalk, hitting the car.
00:10:34
The SnowJobs Podcast
ah ah Oh, Jesus.
00:10:37
RICK JAMES
I'm like, you know, of course, who were they going to blame the snow guy?
00:10:40
The SnowJobs Podcast
Oh, a hundred percent, hundred percent.
00:10:40
RICK JAMES
this No, guy like no and that that that wasn't us. You see these two, two little tire tracks that come off the highway. Yeah.
00:10:47
The SnowJobs Podcast
We had that happen a couple of years ago. We had somebody in a complex say that they're, we took off their mirror, uh, during a storm and we went and investigated it.
00:10:55
RICK JAMES
yeah
00:10:58
The SnowJobs Podcast
And I just said, you know what, let me look back to our preseason pictures, just see, you know, cause everybody's got assigned spots and sure enough back look like November 15th, we took preseason photos with like curb damage and stuff.

The SnowJobs Podcast
That's coming up. Uh, I think Jean said he's going to have the. the ticket link up in the next couple of weeks. So be paying attention for that awesome event we attended last year. We're going to be attending this year. We're going to do our thing again for them. there And we're going to travel heavy as usual. And ah the the night before case construction equipment is sponsoring the ah ah welcome party. So that should be a good time. That'd be a great networking night. and You know, a little pre-gaming for a Saturday.
00:13:29
The SnowJobs Podcast
So looking forward to that. And, you know, the storks team puts on a great show. I mean, that was, I still can't get over, like that was so seamless for as many things as they did, as much food as they had.
00:13:41
The SnowJobs Podcast
Catering was great. The, you know, maybe we missed some pretzels, but you know, other than our pretzels, not, uh, not getting there, which I'm sure will be remedied this year.

So if you are a hardcore snow guy and you want to ah you know keep the winter going for one more month, talking snow with a bunch of other hardcore snow guys ah and learning a little bit, seeing what new equipment, they're going to have a bunch more equipment this year there.
00:14:39
The SnowJobs Podcast
And I'm sure vendors, as this thing gets more and more popular, so make sure you ah join us and get tickets to a Stork Snow Alliance. ah What else do we have, buddy?
00:14:50
The SnowJobs Podcast
ah Last week's episode with Billy Moore. Uh, we got so many messages from guys saying, thank you for saying that.
00:14:57
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:15:00
The SnowJobs Podcast
Thank you for putting it out there that it's okay to be where we are, where we are, where we're at. You know, we don't, cause guys like one guy, I i actually should. Fucking, I should have had it queued up so I could read it, but one guy was like, um, I was starting to think I was the problem. And like the fact that I'm happy where I'm at, I'm happy at the level I'm at, revenue I'm at, my stress level. I was starting to think that I was the issue.
00:15:25
The SnowJobs Podcast
And maybe I just wasn't you know ambitious enough or what, but because it's good to it's always good that somebody put it in perspective for you. So thanks and um that was great. you know I'm glad we did that and glad we got it out there for guys to hear that you know it's okay wherever you are.
00:15:40
The SnowJobs Podcast
Long as you're good, long as you're profitable and happy, man, it's enjoy where you are.
00:15:44
RICK JAMES
Right. Yeah, exactly.
00:15:46
The SnowJobs Podcast
Nothing wrong with it.
00:15:47
RICK JAMES
No, I had a lot of, a lot of feedbacks on that too. Personally, that was pretty, yeah, it was a good one.
00:15:51
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, they love that. Thanks for the jacket, new car hearts. Those look good. Those will probably sell on the website if you want to make up some more or are we keeping them special for us?
00:15:59
RICK JAMES
is it is a story and close to them that shit for some like are we are we are we open still been pretty slow
00:16:06
The SnowJobs Podcast
I don't know. I i had a couple of messages this week asking for backpacks, which are ordered and on the way, but apparently not there yet. So, but yeah, I mean, the store is open.
00:16:19
The SnowJobs Podcast
Get, you get the stuff while it's hot and, uh, it's there and it's taken up space in Jeremy's office. So help the, help the snow King out and get it out of there.
00:16:25
RICK JAMES
yeah
00:16:29
RICK JAMES
Yes, please.
00:16:29
The SnowJobs Podcast
Uh, I was trying, I wanted to get, I wanted to get Mikey on Santa Lucito tonight, but he was at his mom's house.
00:16:37
The SnowJobs Podcast
Couldn't do it. I wanted to hear how, uh, how storm chasing went for them up there.
00:16:40
RICK JAMES
Oh, yeah, yep.
00:16:42
The SnowJobs Podcast
Here are all the ins and outs.
00:16:42
RICK JAMES
Definitely. i I've heard I've heard some stuff about it on our phone calls to speak from Maddie and Maddie, Matt and Steve, they're still on our glacier call list.
00:16:53
RICK JAMES
So they happen to get on there and yeah we
00:16:53
The SnowJobs Podcast
Nice.
00:16:56
RICK JAMES
We have some conversations. I'll just say it.
00:16:58
The SnowJobs Podcast
Did we hear how curbside went? Dude, I've been so busy. We've had so many events in the last 10 days. I haven't really checked in.
00:17:04
RICK JAMES
Yeah. Well, I heard about curbside. It went really well. They, they got a little bit, they didn't get a lot of snow, but they got, you know, they got footage of it. You know, that's snow. You're going to get either a little or nothing or whatever, but they, they got a little bit of snow and they pushed everything away and sound it.
00:17:18
RICK JAMES
And so I'm like, they got some good video and stuff for the Viking area, the Vikings practice facility.
00:17:22
The SnowJobs Podcast
That's cool. That's awesome. I want to see that.
00:17:25
RICK JAMES
Yeah. So no, they, they thought, I think they get more this weekend, but I don't think they're going back out. So I think what they got is what they got. And that sound like it would turn out pretty well.
00:17:32
The SnowJobs Podcast
they I think they're getting snow right now because they just sent us a story to repost of them pushing. So
00:17:38
RICK JAMES
Gotcha.
Event Attendance Challenges
00:17:39
The SnowJobs Podcast
I think they're getting more now.
00:17:39
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:17:40
The SnowJobs Podcast
Anything, uh, anything new coming for Arctic or is Arctic getting snow?
00:17:44
RICK JAMES
Um, but you're talking, well, this comes out Monday. They're talking later this, later this week, our Arctic might get something. So we might and then end up shooting out there.
00:17:51
The SnowJobs Podcast
Nice.
00:17:55
RICK JAMES
So either that, or yeah, it could be another, whatever, another celebrity push somewhere.
00:17:59
The SnowJobs Podcast
I'm going to go out on a limb and say I will not be attending the filming of that. I'm not going to be able to get away.
00:18:03
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:18:06
RICK JAMES
Looks like it could be slow here.
00:18:06
The SnowJobs Podcast
What a pain in the ass, dude. Like, seriously, I could have gotten away multiple times last winter. I could have gotten away pretty much at will until March, the winter before.
00:18:18
The SnowJobs Podcast
But this winter, when we actually have a video docu-series up and filming that week we really want to be at and want to be there for, I can't get the hell away. You can't barely get away either.
00:18:28
RICK JAMES
that' That's, that's a standard snow, snow deal.
00:18:30
The SnowJobs Podcast
That's how it goes.
00:18:31
RICK JAMES
I mean, it could be nothing going on with the one weekend.
00:18:32
The SnowJobs Podcast
That's how it goes, brother.
00:18:34
RICK JAMES
You have something going on. Boom. Yeah. We're, we're, uh, we're working. So.
00:18:40
The SnowJobs Podcast
100%, 100%. So, you know, I mean, the one thing I can talk about and that I really, I think we should touch on, we're going to do an abbreviated episode today.
00:18:51
The SnowJobs Podcast
We might maybe, maybe if we have time later in the week, record something else and drop it. But I mean, we just don't, honestly, we just don't have the time right now to to do a full episode and full preparation and stuff.
00:18:56
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:19:02
The SnowJobs Podcast
So we apologize to you guys for that. But the one thing I do want to say is reports. from multiple areas of the country from guys we know, uh, with this winter being so many events, not necessarily a lot of snow in some spots, but a lot of events, uh,
Pricing Strategies for Survival
00:19:18
RICK JAMES
Mm hmm.
00:19:18
The SnowJobs Podcast
we're getting reports of companies like failing and folding, like just disappearing.
00:19:25
RICK JAMES
Right.
00:19:26
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. Uh, yeah, we, we just, uh, we're getting reports of that. And, uh, this is like, we're going to talk about this more after we run the commercials here for our partners, but it's, this is the importance of pricing yourself, right. So you can.
00:19:43
The SnowJobs Podcast
thrive in a winter like this and not be basically out of business halfway through it because you had double the winter that you thought you'd have, you know, the the low snow or no snow model does not work. And we're going to get into that when we get back. But for now, all right, let's hear from team Top Gun and we'll run the 30s right after that. And we'll be back with you guys.
00:23:29
The SnowJobs Podcast
All right, gang, we are back. Thank you to all our partners. Musk
Appreciation for Equipment Suppliers
00:23:34
The SnowJobs Podcast
ox, dude, the Musk ox came in big. The boys were using that today to blow back piles, frozen solid for a month.
00:23:41
The SnowJobs Podcast
Some of these piles and chopping right through it and spitting it out like powder.
00:23:41
RICK JAMES
Mm hmm.
00:23:45
The SnowJobs Podcast
It's a, that thing is just a beast. It really is. And that's standard flow. Like I don't even have high flow machines.
00:23:51
RICK JAMES
Or are they just making room, making rooms?
00:23:51
The SnowJobs Podcast
I think killed it.
00:23:55
RICK JAMES
Oh, you're done.
00:23:55
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. Yeah. We had to, we got very limited spots in the one complex, uh, to put snow to pile it, stack it. And we're sure already stacked pretty high. So the boys, uh, went out this morning and blew back some piles getting ready.
00:24:08
The SnowJobs Podcast
And, uh, yeah, the Muskox killed it. Have a little hydraulic fluid leak somewhere in the machine. We can't find, can't figure it out.
00:24:14
RICK JAMES
Alright.
00:24:14
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. I don't know where it's coming from, but it's coming out the bottom pan out of the weep holes. I'll be damned if we can find where the hell it's coming from.
00:24:22
RICK JAMES
Is that the one that was leaking last year you were trying to find?
00:24:22
The SnowJobs Podcast
Can't.
00:24:24
RICK JAMES
I don't know. Was that something else?
00:24:26
The SnowJobs Podcast
Uh, I don't know if it's the same one.
00:24:27
RICK JAMES
I thought last summer you were looking at me throwing.
00:24:29
The SnowJobs Podcast
They, they both, they both are a little leaky at times. I don't know. I don't know if the seals heat up or what, but yeah, they both get a little leaky at times, but other times they run, you know, when they're tight.
00:24:40
The SnowJobs Podcast
So it's, it's interesting.
00:24:40
RICK JAMES
Yeah, yeah.
00:24:43
RICK JAMES
yeah
00:24:43
The SnowJobs Podcast
I do got to give a shout out to Joe and the the guys over at GT Minute Atlantic.
00:24:43
RICK JAMES
ah
00:24:48
The SnowJobs Podcast
They got the one machine that was having that sensor issue with the fuel that came up, sent a guy up, said, OK, we know what it is. They narrowed it down from what I was telling them and nailed it.
00:24:58
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:24:58
The SnowJobs Podcast
No problems.
00:24:59
The SnowJobs Podcast
So thanks to GT Minute Atlantic for again, being a fucking outstanding dealer.
00:25:00
RICK JAMES
Hmm.
00:25:04
The SnowJobs Podcast
You can't. And I don't think I think we called and he was like, I'll get somebody there like the next day. And I'm like, don't only worry about it. We're OK. You know, we got little events right now.
00:25:14
The SnowJobs Podcast
So I know you're stressed and I know you're under the gun, but I'll be damned if he's like, Nope, I want to get it taken care of. So he had a guy there the day after. So thanks to them.
00:25:22
RICK JAMES
Nice.
00:25:23
RICK JAMES
You can't be that. You got a great service.
00:25:23
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah.
00:25:24
The SnowJobs Podcast
Can't beat them. No, can't beat GT mid-Atlantic is phenomenal. I wish I was closer to them. Um, but yeah, they're, they're absolutely phenomenal. Can't say enough about them. If you're a, you're in that North Jersey area or whatever, Eastern, Western Pennsylvania, is it Western or Eastern, Eastern Pennsylvania, you know, definitely check those guys out because ah they definitely stand behind their equipment that they sell.
00:25:45
The SnowJobs Podcast
Um,
00:25:45
RICK JAMES
Great service, sells equipment, that's for sure.
00:25:47
The SnowJobs Podcast
Oh, phenomenal. I would, I would not hesitate it. I mean, if I like, if I didn't get my machines from where I get them from, I would not hesitate. If I i wasn't getting them from Dinesse, I would not hesitate to buy a brand new machine from GT.
00:26:00
The SnowJobs Podcast
They are, they they've gone above and beyond. And it just makes me realize how awful my local dealer actually is. It really, it really does.
00:26:07
RICK JAMES
Awful.
00:26:08
The SnowJobs Podcast
Like, I mean, cause there, Joe's like, we're not doing anything that is earth shattering.
00:26:09
RICK JAMES
ah
00:26:13
The SnowJobs Podcast
I'm like, well, this is all earth shattering to me. He goes, no, this is just how we roll. So good for them. Good for GT and Atlantic great outfit.
00:26:19
RICK JAMES
Well, I like to, we don't go on this little bit Instagram. We should do some
Instagram Live Sessions on Snow Plowing
00:26:26
RICK JAMES
more Instagram lives. I've had the guys, a couple of guys reach out. So once it was ever going to snow, maybe we can do one here and there.
00:26:32
The SnowJobs Podcast
We could do one tonight.
00:26:32
RICK JAMES
Let's do that. Well, we could. Yeah.
00:26:35
The SnowJobs Podcast
We could definitely do one tonight.
00:26:37
RICK JAMES
Yeah. Um, and what else was that?
00:26:38
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. All right.
00:26:40
RICK JAMES
I had to say something else. like Oh, a lot of guys DM me or send me. real or not real like and stories to add. We should tip touching.
00:26:51
RICK JAMES
Anyway, I want to be like us.
00:26:53
RICK JAMES
Tip touch. OK, let's let's get your shit together. If you're going to send me something, actually be touching.
00:26:53
The SnowJobs Podcast
I saw that.
00:26:59
The SnowJobs Podcast
a Touching means touching.
00:27:00
RICK JAMES
Get those plows together. Let's do it real. All right. Yeah, I can't share those anyway. I've been nice sharing them. I can't do it anymore unless it's actually um' I'm starting to going to have to be selective in what I do.
00:27:13
RICK JAMES
You know, you know,
00:27:14
The SnowJobs Podcast
Touching does not mean six inches apart.
00:27:16
RICK JAMES
Yeah, you gotta, you gotta get it. And there's, I've gotten quite a few in the last week here and I'm just like, you know what? I gotta address this.
00:27:24
The SnowJobs Podcast
There you go.
00:27:26
RICK JAMES
So my everybody wants to be like us.
00:27:27
The SnowJobs Podcast
There you go.
00:27:29
RICK JAMES
Everybody wants to be like the Glacier Boys and you know, you'll get there.
00:27:31
The SnowJobs Podcast
Well, yeah, I mean, you can't fault anybody for that.
00:27:33
RICK JAMES
I mean, no, I mean, you'll get there. You just gotta, you know, we were talking about that on the phone call there and I had the boys are there.
00:27:42
The SnowJobs Podcast
Remember the one we got last year where they were like, yeah, touching tips and they were like five feet apart.
00:27:42
RICK JAMES
They're a little, I'm wondering about
00:27:46
RICK JAMES
Oh, God. Yeah. Yeah. They know who they are. They they addressed that situation.
00:27:54
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. Yeah. Oh man. It's always a good time, but yeah, dude, I'll tell you, man, it's, it's been a, uh, it's been a winter. It's been great. I mean, if you're, if you're a snow lover and you're around me, you've been very happy.
00:28:08
The SnowJobs Podcast
Um, if you bid your stuff correctly, if you priced it correctly, and that's a big if, because you're seeing guys right now that are struggling and, uh,
00:28:12
RICK JAMES
Oh.
00:28:20
The SnowJobs Podcast
The service levels are going down a little bit. Um, not as responsive, not as much salt. And that could just be guys are tired, but a lot of it could be that we've had already double the events that we had last year. We've, we've gone through double the salt we've gone through. We've used double our labor that we've gone that labor hours that we did last year. So I haven't checked the fuel issues, like not issues, but the fuel logs. But I guarantee when I see that credit card bill that that's going to be double.
00:28:50
The SnowJobs Podcast
You know, it just makes sense. If you, if you were low bidding to try and pick up, just say, cause oh, I got to make sure I get this. You are hurting right now. I don't see how you possibly can.
00:29:00
The SnowJobs Podcast
If you're on a seasonal with no ceiling, how are you, how are you absorbing this? If you were low to begin with, you know, if you were that guy that got it for 35,000, when the other guy's all bidding it at 75 or higher, you know, how are you absorbing this?
00:29:06
RICK JAMES
Hmm. Mm hmm.
00:29:17
RICK JAMES
Because it's right next door to one, and you're doing or some bullshit, right?
00:29:20
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, I don't know if that's going to hold water this year. I think, uh, I think this year, this is a great winner for a lot of reasons. It's great for snow guys, cause you're going to get snow. It's great if you've done your ratios properly, where you are, you have a good mix of both seasonal and purplish. So you are covering and you're covering again. Um, it's, you know, it's good and it's, it's also good because you're going to thin out the herd this year.
00:29:48
RICK JAMES
Oh, yeah, we definitely need the winners like this where they can, you know, like you just said, the I mean, it's, I don't think there's a better term.
00:29:51
The SnowJobs Podcast
You do.
00:29:55
RICK JAMES
They don't have to hurt, you know, you gotta, you gotta have guys that are ah bidding stuff correctly.
00:29:57
The SnowJobs Podcast
You do. Yeah.
00:29:59
RICK JAMES
And the guys that are just bidding bidding for no snow, just trying to get a check-in, you know?
00:30:04
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yep.
00:30:05
RICK JAMES
you and the know the no The no snow model doesn't only work for so long.
00:30:05
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. I mean, if nothing else, doesn't work. Yeah. Yeah, you you get you get exposed in a winter like this. If you're if you're bidding way low, you're not going to be able to do what guys that are doing it right are going to do and how they're going to do it. um But I think it's honestly, I think it's great. It's great for our area because next year you're going to see two things. You're going to see guys, if they survive it, they're going to be raising their prices because they realize what they just went through and you're going to see the customers in the area finally understanding
00:30:40
The SnowJobs Podcast
Okay. We didn't just do eight to 10 events that were, you know, eight, you know, and you got 40, 44 inches, you had 17 to 20 plowings and you know, we're going to be over our average after tonight.
00:30:54
The SnowJobs Podcast
You know, we're going to be already over with a lot of winter left to come with probably 20 to 30 more. We might activate our ceilings and that, uh, you know, that would be interesting because I don't know.
00:31:05
RICK JAMES
and you don't usually get heavier for towards the end of the year
00:31:09
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, the nor'easter times is at the end, but Nick, again, uh, the weather dudes don't see nor'easters this year. They, it's a neutral winter. They don't see, uh, the nor'easters because the nor'easters have to be what fed by the ocean or whatever.
00:31:20
The SnowJobs Podcast
And the ocean is like the current is whatever not, I don't know.
00:31:24
RICK JAMES
and
00:31:24
The SnowJobs Podcast
I don't understand all the, they confuse us with all the BS.
00:31:24
RICK JAMES
get the right temperature
00:31:27
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah.
00:31:27
RICK JAMES
the right model molecular structure of the the water and you got in thelecular and the enzymes and uh you know everything's gotta just pan out he's been pretty busy Kyle it's been a swamp yeah he's
00:31:30
The SnowJobs Podcast
Exactly. Yes. The sea water has to cooperate with, uh, you know, with the proper salinity and temp.
00:31:42
The SnowJobs Podcast
But yeah, this is, but this is good. I mean, this is good for a lot of areas. You look at the Ohio area that like, uh, Zuber, uh, not so much Kyle yet. I don't think Kyle's gotten really hammered, but like the, yeah, he did. So it was just the first one he didn't get. He's gotten everything since.
00:31:59
RICK JAMES
Yeah, he was they were I mean they really got a 14 day push every night I mean, I don't think he's getting enough I mean I like to say don't he's getting he's pushing but I don't think he's pushing much as uber has Morgan Lake effect I think than he does but Yeah, but he he's gotta eat.
00:32:03
The SnowJobs Podcast
All right. Good. All right. So.
00:32:13
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, like I mean, I'm just talking about that area. like yeah had You had Kyle, Corey Lanfier, Zuber, ah Dirty Mike and the Boys from MTG.
00:32:16
RICK JAMES
Yeah. Yeah, he's definitely definitely working though. He's definitely been Yeah Oh God Yeah
00:32:23
The SnowJobs Podcast
I love that fucking Dirty Mike and the Boys. That was from what the other guys, Will Ferrell movie.
00:32:29
RICK JAMES
Yeah, still getting it?
00:32:31
The SnowJobs Podcast
but ah No, but all those guys, they got two weeks solid of snow and they're still getting it. and
00:32:37
RICK JAMES
I don't know.
00:32:37
The SnowJobs Podcast
That's, that's great. You needed that. Cause that area did not, you know, the last couple of years did not overperform snow wise. So that's really good for an area for two reasons. It thins out the herd, like we just said, and it, it reminds customers what is possible.
00:32:53
RICK JAMES
Do you, do you really think a bezel reminds customers?
00:32:55
The SnowJobs Podcast
I do. I absolutely do.
00:32:56
RICK JAMES
Do you?
00:32:57
The SnowJobs Podcast
The, with the year we had that 92 inch winter, when we had our 40 something inch average, and then we had the two monster nor'easters that dumped 30 and 22 on top of us on top of the average. we negotiated, there was no negotiation.
00:33:10
The SnowJobs Podcast
Like they didn't even try and say like, Oh, can we get that a little lower? Like it was like, yes, send us the contract we're signing. Like there was, they were like shell shocked. So, cause a hundred percent dude renewals will be out in April.
00:33:20
RICK JAMES
and All you should be saying contracts now and then when it's fresh to remind me because I I just I'm just saying we always think it should make a difference, but does it always I mean a lot of customers
00:33:32
The SnowJobs Podcast
I can only speak for for myself. When we had that banger winner, ah it definitely reminded our customers what we do and how well we do it and why they pay us, what they pay us. So i think I think that's going to be good for a lot of guys and ah you're going to have two things. You're going to have the guys that don't make it through this winter, which is unfortunate.
00:33:51
The SnowJobs Podcast
Um, but, and you're also going to have guys that will survive and be hurting a little bit, you know, got maybe kicked in the balls a little bit, but they're going to have to bring their prices up, which is good for my area for everybody in it. So that's good to get everybody on the same page and at least be in the same bracket. You know, you don't be in the ballpark. Like don't be 70% cheaper than every, you know, than the other reputable people in your area.
00:34:17
RICK JAMES
right.
00:34:18
The SnowJobs Podcast
you know Because then people ask questions too. like I've had a property manager run so run a couple of things by me recently like, here's this guy's bid on this site. what you know You're not bidding on this site, but what would you, if I asked you to do it, I know it's outside your area, look at the look at the map, look at the ah RFP, what would you bid it at?
00:34:39
The SnowJobs Podcast
And like, I looked at it for like 25 minutes. I read the ah RFP, i you know, glossed over it, but they were pretty much, you know, pretreat treat once during post treat. Um, they had a one inch trigger. Um, so I looked at the site. It was a three acre site and I'm just like, you know, I gave him a price and he's like, dude, how, okay. I, I, that I believe. How is this guy coming in for less than half of what you just told me?
00:35:05
The SnowJobs Podcast
I'm like, I wouldn't go with him. Like I just wouldn't. I was like, do you have anybody that was in my range? He goes, yeah, I have two guys that were in your range. That's why I wanted to confirm it with you. And I said, yeah, I was like, I would go with one of them.
00:35:16
The SnowJobs Podcast
Pick one of them, throw that low ball out because that's going to be a problem. And you're a property manager. If you fucking hire the wrong guy or tell them to hire the wrong guy, they're going to kick you to the curb with that snow guy at the end of the year.
00:35:29
The SnowJobs Podcast
Correct.
00:35:29
RICK JAMES
Yeah, correct. And they should.
00:35:33
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. I mean, that's kind of their job, right?
00:35:34
RICK JAMES
me Well, yeah, we need a hug close. We talked about this many times. A lot of these property managers get, the they're going to get a kickback for saving money, you know, so.
00:35:39
The SnowJobs Podcast
Oh, sure.
00:35:43
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. They have their preferred customer list and they have the guys that maybe do free work at the hell. Yeah. That actually happens. I've only dealt with that recently, but that actually happens that, uh, yeah, I thought everything was on the level. I'm an idiot.
00:35:59
RICK JAMES
Wasn't quite the old management company.
00:36:00
The SnowJobs Podcast
Not really. No, I've never dealt with it before, but you know, it it does get done in some places. Um,
Importance of a Reliable Team
00:36:06
The SnowJobs Podcast
but yeah, I think that is going to be a good thing. Having a winner like this and just, you know,
00:36:12
The SnowJobs Podcast
If you can handle it, my guys, like I can't say enough about my guys, especially the the ninjas, man, those, those guys are crushing it. How they are still doing this every two to three days for weeks now and doing it still with the quality and the attitude like nobody's pissing and moaning. Nobody's unhappy. They went out. We got kind of kicked in the nuts a little bit the other morning. Uh,
00:36:39
The SnowJobs Podcast
We had like two inches of snow and then we got iced over. ah We ended with 20 minute, I think Doyle got it too, where we ended it with a 20 minute thunderstorm of torrential rain.
00:36:43
RICK JAMES
Mm hmm.
00:36:51
The SnowJobs Podcast
And it just brought the frost out of the ground for the next like three to four hours. No matter how much salt you were putting down, it was still crusting over. And we were scraping and salt and scraping and salt.
00:37:01
The SnowJobs Podcast
And those guys just kept going. so you know I can't say enough about Brandon and his guys, they they just kill it. you know Trent, James, I mean, all those guys, they're just absolute animals, couldn't do it without them.
00:37:15
The SnowJobs Podcast
They make us look good every day. um My operators are, what's that?
00:37:18
RICK JAMES
They got a good routine down there. They're going all so much. They got a good routine going now. So that helps.
00:37:23
The SnowJobs Podcast
They do, yeah, they're in the zone.
00:37:24
RICK JAMES
That definitely helps. so
00:37:26
The SnowJobs Podcast
They're in the zone and I keep telling them to take breaks and stuff and they don't get to be so, you know, in a hurry, but they, uh, they just keep trucking. And, uh, yeah, we couldn't do without them. My, my one truck guy, Matt, he is always there. He is beginning to end, never complains. What, what do you got for me next? What do you need me? Where do you need me now?
00:37:45
The SnowJobs Podcast
you know the the The equipment guys are great, you know they're gonna be settled in. I actually have again for the second time, it seems the big storms, you get the same, as you get the right asses in the right seats. like everybody Everybody's out of, they're available for the big storms.
00:37:59
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:38:00
The SnowJobs Podcast
but
00:38:00
RICK JAMES
Yeah. It's, uh, it's always great. I mean, like you just said, you you're getting multiple storms. So you always, you always get more efficient. The guys, they might be getting tired, but yet they're just always doing a good work because they've done it how many nights in a row.
00:38:16
RICK JAMES
So they just, they're on the cruise control.
00:38:16
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, it's muscle memory.
00:38:19
RICK JAMES
i mean just loud I mean, we haven't had we haven't had a i see a lot of snow this year, but this week, I got quite a few regulars gone.
00:38:19
The SnowJobs Podcast
Absolutely.
00:38:26
RICK JAMES
So I had a lot of backup step in the last couple of nights and brought Bobo the Snow Hole came back and he helped.
00:38:32
The SnowJobs Podcast
Really goes back for just, just a one night engagement or.
00:38:33
RICK JAMES
Yeah, Bobo came back. So, yeah, he came back. Yeah, yeah well he's out I had him out twice. So he was... ah Yeah. So it was great because he, he runs a tight crew and he gets people in line.
00:38:47
RICK JAMES
So it's nice to have Bo out there. So, but yeah, anyway, it was.
00:38:50
The SnowJobs Podcast
That's great.
00:38:51
RICK JAMES
ah It's definitely, definitely nice to get some of these new guys in. You know, I've been always, I've been trying to get them in here and there and they did. They're all filling in doing a great job. Like the vets are telling them what to do and they're listening for the most part and getting it done.
00:39:06
RICK JAMES
But yeah, it's always nice to get more fresh guys in the seats because shit happens, you know, people are gone.
00:39:11
The SnowJobs Podcast
Absolutely. It does, man. It definitely does. Yeah. We got, as long as I got the. If I have the same two operators at the one complex, everything is fucking pristine.
00:39:23
The SnowJobs Podcast
but the second one of them is switched out. It just, you know, it doesn't go, you know, cause like you said, it's guys that aren't doing it with muscle memory. They're just, you know, it, it, you know, we gotta go back over things here and there, but like when those two guys are operating together, forget it.
00:39:31
RICK JAMES
Mm hmm.
00:39:39
The SnowJobs Podcast
It's just, you pull in there and you're like, did it even snow here? Like only crap. Like it's curb to curb every note, no rounded corners.
00:39:44
RICK JAMES
Oh.
00:39:48
The SnowJobs Podcast
Everything is a, you know, everything's off the catch basins completely. They've just they've done a job. um I put on new saber blades this week. The saber edges on the Arctic got to try it out.
00:39:58
RICK JAMES
He did. Did he did he get the bolts right?
00:40:01
The SnowJobs Podcast
They scraped really clean. I'll see how they wear. Um, and, uh, I also got two new sets of winter equipment for the, uh, 10 foot Arctic's too.
00:40:10

The SnowJobs Podcast
So yeah, this is Saturday. They got there yesterday and I ordered them on Thursday.

00:40:27
The SnowJobs Podcast
So like, yeah, literally I called Ron and Jake Thursday morning.
00:40:28
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:40:32
The SnowJobs Podcast

New Equipment and Gratitude
00:40:39
The SnowJobs Podcast
So thanks to winter equipment, getting it done.
00:40:40
RICK JAMES
Yeah, I think I got to get some more winter edges. I think I just, or some local stuff this week to get by, but I should have probably got some more winters, but we'll get them.
00:40:51
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. Yep. Yeah. I mean, we'll see that the, the sabers, like they look good. They, they definitely look, they they look angry. They're angry, angry looking edges, right?
00:41:00
RICK JAMES
but Yeah. Yeah.
00:41:02
The SnowJobs Podcast
But, uh,
00:41:02
RICK JAMES
Well, they definitely, I got them, I got that one fall set up where I got them every other and that was, I don't know, it's been, We've been grinding on them, but they really don't show much where either winters are the sabers.
00:41:16
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, so like we only used them the one storm, but we were really, we were doing a lot of scraping of, uh, of pavement because of the, uh, the, uh, the frost, the crust, we kept scraping that up. And, um, yeah, I mean, they look great. Thanks to Adam. Uh, big shout out to Adam Nelson for getting me a set of those out here. And.
00:41:35
The SnowJobs Podcast
They're on and we're going to see what they can do. And so far, you know, we were pretty impressed with one storm, very, very clean scrape, very little wear at all. Not really at all.
00:41:45
The SnowJobs Podcast
And like I said, we'll throw the winners on the, uh, the other two boxes, probably in the next couple of days. And yeah, everything's good. I need an, I need to, it's going to kill me to do it, but I do need to get a site, uh, another set of winners for the V plow for another V plow.
00:42:00
RICK JAMES
Oh, I thought you said they weren't badly pressed.
00:42:02
The SnowJobs Podcast
But.
00:42:03
RICK JAMES
They're only like a couple hundred more than the other one.
00:42:06
The SnowJobs Podcast
They weren't, but it's still close to $1,000, you know, for that, for the V set.
00:42:09
RICK JAMES
Yeah. oh
00:42:11
The SnowJobs Podcast
And right now, I mean, when I just looked at my, what I've spent on salt already this year, I'm just like, Jesus Christ. So it's like, yeah, I don't know.
00:42:20
RICK JAMES
Did you?
00:42:20
The SnowJobs Podcast
We could probably get away with the rest of this winter.
00:42:22
RICK JAMES
Did you price your sights right, Steve?
00:42:25
The SnowJobs Podcast
Oh, hell yeah. Hell yes, we did. But they still got to pay for it.
00:42:30
RICK JAMES
I'm just giving you shit.
00:42:31
The SnowJobs Podcast
So yeah, our our bills are good, man. it It all looks really good. The customers are very happy. I spoke to the one ah one place today just to to see how it was because they're kind of an outlier site. And I wanted to make sure that that we we were responsive enough with the ice the other morning because they and they were actually awesome. They called us and said, we're we're not going to open until noon and i'm like because it was supposed to be over by 10.
00:42:57
The SnowJobs Podcast
I'm like, that's perfect. I love having customers like that where they understand that, you know, they're going to give us time. They understand what's coming. They understand their, their customers aren't going to be on the roads until it's over.
00:43:08
RICK JAMES
yeah
00:43:09
The SnowJobs Podcast
So they open late and gave us time to do what we do and, and make it safe for them. And then we did it and now she was like, no, the the guys did absolutely phenomenal. We pulled in, it was black pavement, no need for additional salt.
00:43:22
The SnowJobs Podcast
So. It's good. The guys are, they're still getting it done, man. You always worry about, you know, guys getting tired and maybe missing it here and there cutting a corner or two, but, uh, no, they're, uh, they're still, still chugging, but yeah, we're definitely, you definitely seeing it though.
00:43:31
RICK JAMES
Yeah. Yeah.
00:43:35
RICK JAMES
But you said you
00:43:37
The SnowJobs Podcast
The importance of doing it right.
00:43:38
RICK JAMES
You said you've seen it out in the east coast. so You've seen guys that are not even showing up. I mean, we talked a little bit about it, but you, and you seem like actually like marketplace, you said, you see snow stuff on there constantly.
00:43:44
The SnowJobs Podcast
Oh yeah. We've taken two sites.
00:43:50
RICK JAMES
Now people in
00:43:51
The SnowJobs Podcast
Tons, tons of stuff on marketplace. Tons of used plows, used fucking loaders, used skids, tons of stuff.
00:43:53
RICK JAMES
the middle of winter, huh?
00:43:58
The SnowJobs Podcast
Plow trucks, full plow trucks. Yeah. Tons of stuff. More than I've ever seen before. And that's why it's like noticeable. And you you know, when they figure out when, what Facebook has that, whatever that, um, that algorithm that they can see where you are and they start throwing, they see what you search for and they start firing stuff up there.
00:44:16
The SnowJobs Podcast
Like I'm getting like 10 to 20 updates a day with new, you know, snowplow equipment and stuff that that's out there. So, and we've listened, we've already taken over two sites this winter from guys that stopped showing up.
00:44:29
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:44:30
The SnowJobs Podcast
And that was early on. Like I can't imagine now, forget it. I don't think, I don't think we would take any sites anymore at this point. I think we're, I think, uh, we're, we're pretty, we're, we're pretty okay.
00:44:40
RICK JAMES
Yeah. Yeah. Money talks.
00:44:44
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, exactly. But you know, you also don't, you also don't want to gouge them either.
00:44:45
RICK JAMES
Money, money, I always talk.
00:44:48
The SnowJobs Podcast
Cause then you, you could get that customer next year and just say, Hey, listen, we, you know, maybe work something out, but it's tough to do it in the, you know, we're doing.
00:44:57
RICK JAMES
But they should pay a penalty for choosing the other contractor for a little while.
00:45:01
The SnowJobs Podcast
Well, they, I mean, the two have, you know, really, I mean, the two kind of have, but you know, you don't want to gouge, but you do got to get your money.
00:45:04
RICK JAMES
yeah ah got You got to teach them a lesson.
00:45:10
The SnowJobs Podcast
You got to make sure the terms are right for you.
00:45:11
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:45:12
The SnowJobs Podcast
That's for sure.
00:45:13
RICK JAMES
Oh, exactly.
00:45:13
The SnowJobs Podcast
And, uh, that you're not going to stress your own, uh, you know, your existing customer base because you're taking on another failed site. But, uh, yeah, I mean, I know the guys, the guys I talk to on a regular basis, they're doing great.
00:45:26
The SnowJobs Podcast
Um, the guys around here that I talk to on a regular basis, they're all doing great. And, uh, you know, they're excited. They're, they're having a good time with it. And that just shows if you're looking forward to the next storm, that just shows your, your price, right.
00:45:39
The SnowJobs Podcast
And you know, you're making money and you're, you're okay. Cause if you're dreading that next snowfall coming, because you got no money to go out there and do it, you know, one, one blown hose or one plow break could, uh, could end your season.
00:45:52
The SnowJobs Podcast
If you don't got any money to pay for it, guys are just done.
00:45:55
RICK JAMES
Yeah, that's you know, you're not wrong.
00:45:59
The SnowJobs Podcast
Super said there's guys that just literally like have disappeared in Ohio.
Impact of Salt Shortages
00:46:05
RICK JAMES
Okay, so Zubers snappin' our summer group and stuff and textin' us, they must have a hell of a salt shortage in that area. You guys have a salt shortage in your area or what?
00:46:13
The SnowJobs Podcast
We, New York has been closed off for contractors as of this week to get salt. I think it was Cargill. I think they said, Oh, it's DOT only and emergency service only hospitals and stuff like that.
00:46:21
RICK JAMES
Mm-hmm.
00:46:26
The SnowJobs Podcast
Um, we are not currently experiencing any, any of the repercussions of that. Uh, I just took in another load last night, um, which should.
00:46:39
The SnowJobs Podcast
knock on, knock on wood here should get us through no matter what comes really in the next two weeks should be good. But I mean, we've already refilled our bin twice as much as we did last year already.
00:46:52
The SnowJobs Podcast
And we still got another month and a half to go.
00:46:55
RICK JAMES
But Ohio boys are really a shortage over there, right?
00:46:55
The SnowJobs Podcast
So yeah, I think maybe it might be tougher for them because they're landlocked.
00:46:57
RICK JAMES
Is that what I'm seeing?
00:47:03
The SnowJobs Podcast
Like we have the ports right here, bringing in foreign salt. So.
00:47:06
RICK JAMES
Yeah, but I thought they got, I thought they got theirs right off the, right off the Great Lakes there, didn't they? Zuber always shows like big cargo.
00:47:11
The SnowJobs Podcast
They, where's the, where's the Great Lakes salt coming from though? That's landlocked too. I mean, it's a lake.
00:47:16
RICK JAMES
Yeah, I know, but I don't know stuff I've seen for Zuber.
00:47:20
The SnowJobs Podcast
I don't know. Yeah. I know they are in a salt shortage. I know they are. And ah Matt from Clippers said Michigan too. And I think Billy Moore mentioned it too, didn't he?
00:47:28
RICK JAMES
yeah Yeah, he did.
00:47:29
The SnowJobs Podcast
um So, yeah, I mean, there there is definitely a there is definitely ah a salt shortage. that the It's not a shortage. I don't believe it's a shortage. it's All these mines are union.
00:47:41
The SnowJobs Podcast
They're only bringing out a certain amount of ton a day per week, per month, per year.
00:47:44
RICK JAMES
Yeah.
00:47:46
The SnowJobs Podcast
And when you have a winter like this in a lot of different parts of the country and people are using double and triple the amount of salt that they normally have, and that's everybody, then what they've been bringing out of the mind can't keep up with the demand.
00:47:58
The SnowJobs Podcast
So they shut it down, and you know what you're going to see from it?
00:47:59
RICK JAMES
and they're not going to work yeah that's parsley's
00:48:02
The SnowJobs Podcast
You're going to see, oh, well, now we're going to ration it. You can come get one load, but it's going to be $25 a yard more. I guarantee it.
00:48:12
The SnowJobs Podcast
You know, I, I honestly, I think it's, I think it's a supply and the demand type scam, like a little bit. You know, uh, I mean, I know it is. I just can't prove it really, but you know, it's, that's my own feeling.
00:48:25
The SnowJobs Podcast
I think they do this like with any commodity, you know, if they had a bad winter in Florida and it it zapped all the oranges, you don't think orange juice is going up.
00:48:29
RICK JAMES
Oh yeah, you don't need to prove it. Standard procedure. yeah
00:48:38
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yep. Cough, cough away.
00:48:38
RICK JAMES
Yep. Yep. Cough away. of course it is. No, I mean, this is standard procedure, you know, they'll, they'll, they'll say one thing and you know, they could work a little harder and get it along, but they're not going to.
00:48:44
The SnowJobs Podcast
Absolutely. Well, dude, I think they got plenty of salt. I literally think that it's just a projection that, okay, well, we're going through this much and we we don't want to get into our reserves because we cannot we can only bring it out so fast.
00:49:02
The SnowJobs Podcast
They're not going to put extra shifts on in the mine to bring it out.
00:49:04
RICK JAMES
Oh, God, no.
00:49:05
The SnowJobs Podcast
You know, that ain't going to happen. This is what they like. It's with oil. It's with everything. This is what they do with commodities. So I mean, I could be wrong. I'd love it if somebody told me, you know, explain it to me in a way that didn't get me feeling like that because it's kind of shitty to feel like that's the way it's doing that they're just taking advantage of people.
00:49:22
The SnowJobs Podcast
But I mean, this is New York. It's a state of of people taking advantage of people.
00:49:26
RICK JAMES
No.
00:49:27
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah.
00:49:27
RICK JAMES
No.
00:49:28
The SnowJobs Podcast
it's No, it's not on the level here.
00:49:28
RICK JAMES
No.
00:49:30
The SnowJobs Podcast
What are you kidding me?
00:49:31
RICK JAMES
um but so That means that means if it snows and like jerseys and stuff that Sean's gonna have to plow it's that how is he gonna see if his blades work?
00:49:31
The SnowJobs Podcast
But yeah, it's.
00:49:38
The SnowJobs Podcast
I don't know. I mean, it could be scary for him that he might have to drop blades. I don't know. Yeah, right.
00:49:47
RICK JAMES
yeah Oh No, I did not
00:49:48
The SnowJobs Podcast
I mean, he popped a tire the other day when he tried to plow. Did you see that? Oh, yeah, yeah. The emergency crew out there replacing a tire on the rim. It looks like he blew the bead or something.
00:49:58
The SnowJobs Podcast
Maybe it was a little low and he might have tapped a curb or something with it and popped it right off, broke the bead. but Yo, let's hit our, let's hit our commercials and we'll come back and we'll keep going with this for a couple of minutes and then wrap it up.
00:51:15
The SnowJobs Podcast
All right, gang, we are back. Well, we kind of, we apologize, you know, you know, it's, it is what it
Super Bowl Plans Amidst Snow Events
00:51:22
The SnowJobs Podcast

00:51:27
The SnowJobs Podcast

The SnowJobs Podcast
Jeremy, you got more snow coming tomorrow.
00:51:41
RICK JAMES
No, we're going to hall snow. We're going to, I was going to wait till Monday, but it was supposed to be like 20 below.
00:51:43
The SnowJobs Podcast
Okay.
00:51:46
RICK JAMES
So, and then nobody really cares about the Superbowl this year.
00:51:47
The SnowJobs Podcast
Geez.
00:51:50
RICK JAMES
So I didn't really want to have the guys work if they were having Superbowl parties.
00:51:53
The SnowJobs Podcast
Now.
00:51:53
RICK JAMES
But I'm like, if you guys want to work and everybody's like, yeah, let's just work. So I'm like, yeah, let's let's okay.
00:51:59
The SnowJobs Podcast
Yeah, nobody.
00:51:59
RICK JAMES
If you guys want to work, we'll work. So.
00:52:01
The SnowJobs Podcast
I don't think anybody cares about who's going to win between the Eagles and the Fighting Swifts. I don't think I don't think anybody really cares.
00:52:07
RICK JAMES
butmash there
00:52:09
The SnowJobs Podcast
I think people are tired of the Chiefs and so go Eagles, but it's hard to root for the Eagles.
00:52:13
RICK JAMES
Yeah I can't I can't read for you there.
00:52:15
The SnowJobs Podcast
and's
00:52:16
RICK JAMES
Yeah, I'd I'd probably go for the Chiefs over the Eagles.
