    My job at the shipping yard My job as a crane operator is fun sometimes.Although it can be very dangerous.A quick experience comes from my first days learning how to operate an overhead crane.While loading one of my first flatbed trucks with the crane,i got overzealous.Standing on the wrong side of the bundle of very heavy granite while moving it with the crane.I was moving to fast with the bundle and did not account for the swing of momentum once stopped the bundle.I kicked my leg out thinking it would stop the bundle from hitting the side of the truck. Unfortunately,no man can stop a 3,000 pound bundle of granite.Luckily,my leg was not broken,but i nice size hole was left in my right leg.Thankfully it healed and only left a small scar.I learned that know matter how expensive something may be for a individual,customer,or company.Its never worth it to risk your life for something that can be replaced
