A 4-hour load out
Last night I had a 'load-out' at a casino in Las Vegas. I'm a on-call stagehand. I typically do lighting or electrical work for corporate events and expos. Work for me as a senior union member of 14 years has all but disappeared into to occasional show load in or load out, unfortunately. Still, it was nice to get out of the house and knock some rust off.
Luckily for my roommate, he was on the same call as me and did not have to take the bus into work as by some act of God I still have my car that im struggling to make payments on. With our tools in tow, off we went to work!
When we showed up to work, we were forced to wait for a party to end. The show had finished and now a party had to end before we could strike the lights from the truss structure in the air.
- the roomate Tdog we call him. No its not @dynamicrypto.
Then as we were waiting, our boss had gave us the run down for the evening's loadout.
We had ground lights so that had to be taken care of first.
Once the ground lights were struck, the truss had to come in, in order to strike the lights on it.
After a few hours, we were done striking lights and it was now time to push boxes out of the room and into the elevator.
Once these boxes were loaded onto the elevator we were cut and told to go home! When this happens I typically run or walk really fast to my car!
Here is a funny video where I couldn't find the bitcoin atm that I thought was once here. Maybe was but now it's these photo booth atms. No, they are not really photo booths!
That was it. Sorry for the limited pictures and videos.
