I’m not in marketing so the title may suck, but this is something I thought would be a cool way to help fellow Roksliders.

I know there’s a mix of folks on here with different careers so maybe we can all pitch in. I sell/ rent equipment- forklifts primarily. It can be an overwhelming topic, as far as specs go, if you’re not familiar with them.

Shoot me a message if you have questions about brands, specs, terrain type, what to look for, etc. I’ll do my best to help. (I am not trying to sell anything, just offering help).

Who’s up next?

I work in power line design and upgrades. I deal with a lot of landowners and work with them to relocate lines to more convenient places in their property when possible. I have a good bit of experience with how power lines work in general and can help with easement questions and such if approached by a utility or neighbor. I can field most distribution power line or “grid” questions as well.

Sometimes people are pressured into easements but unless you’re getting “eminent domain” notices, you can usually tell em to **** off if you don’t want something on your land.

I am a specialist in placer gold. Where to find it. How to permit it and? How to mine it and leave the ground and streams as close to the untouched condition as possible.

I pretty much focus in Montana but have worked in most of the west. I know -- a little too specialized to help the majority of you.

I create and distribute memes.

As a side gig, I manage the financial side of construction projects for a government entity. Not much I can help with other than confirming that yes, we do a great job at spending your tax money in the most inefficient ways possible.

Corporate Finance/Strategy at a tech shop.

I can only help in so much as people want like resume review or practice interviews/feedback. Sadly not super helpful like many other experts here.

I'm a software engineer in his twilight of a very long career. Retirement comes in early 26. Never had much of an interest in working on computers 'after work' but would be willing to help if someone here needed it.

I tell folks to respond "I won't give Jesus an easement, so don't pretend to be special".
