Who's Selling Ice: 2012

A unique and distinctive culture emerges from the Burning Man experience. Rooted in the values expressed by the Ten Principles, this culture is manifested around the globe through art, communal effort, and innumerable individual acts of self-expression. To many, it is a way of life.

O man, you're gonna love it!
Especially the Monday and Wednesday shifts. They are both early enough in the week that its not super dupper busy. It will give you a ton of time to chit chat and relax.
Yep...and the part about being close to something cold :)

Do you have any experience with a pallet jack? Specifically with working a pallet jack in a trailer?

Ya know.... They have me down as a cashier, but after 27 years driving 18-wheelers I'm an expert with a pallet jack in a trailer. So if that skill is called for, I could switch.

I hear that!
I'm in the same boat, I'm currently down as a slinger but prefer to be a pusher. Though, I can work both.
I'm not sure if we should bother asking Gentle to move us, or between all of us just know that we are gonna change it up a bit.

EDIT: I've always shown up, and filled in the spot that needs filling. Of the 6 shifts I've worked in 3 years, only twice have I actually worked the position I was signed up for.

O yeah dude, you're totally fucked! You should find someone you know that has a pallet jack and practice a little. You could kill someone if you don't know what you're doing......
Just playing with ya. Nah, it wont matter at all. Pallet jacks are easy to work, and not really dangerous.
Its just ice, you'll figure it out and you'll have blast doing it!

If we still don't have a full crew of ePlayans for this Tuesday 9-Noon shift, maybe we should start a new thread to catch more eyes? Opinions?

Never got my e-mail, hopefully didn't get left out this year. E-mailed Gentle, hopefully she has good news. Working with LBW and the noon to 3 crew is my favorite time on the playa :|

Shift is 9-noon and he posted at 8:30 so its 7 24 hour stretches, your both correct it just depends on the way you think about it.

Illy thank you for organizing all the cats for this. I had a blast line barking, but I think I want to try slinging next year. I missed getting to play with you guys inside! Piehole is hilarious though, and if you have to line bark, he is a fine partner to do it with.

:D I like megaphones because they accentuate my douchebaggery quite well. the line loved me for the most part. one guy really hated the megaphone, snatched it outta my hand and told me to shut up. i was being kind of a dick, but then i apologized and we hugged. and at one point, KFC camp's barker and I traded lines, and then I got to eat fried bologna sandwiches. i was born to bark lines! ugh so much fun.
and yes, you're right, next year i'll get us ALL more booze. and yeah im bummed i didn't get to meet you either, what the french!
