Ha, no. I get that a lot though. I'm an engineer so I don't really do any of the actual mining. I also work at an open pit operation so it's a far cry from what most people envision when they think of mining. We've got 200-ton capacity haul trucks and hydraulic excavators with 42-yard buckets, not exactly like the county gravel pit down the road. It's a lot of fun, but the hours are long.
