Passed by the old dredging site on the Mobile River last week and it looked totally different.

They've got a new suction dredge working there now, all computer screens and joysticks in the cab, nothing like the old levers and cables I learned on. It just made me think about how much the feel of the job has changed, even if the basic work is the same. Anyone who's been around a while ever miss the old gear, or is it all just progress?

My buddy in construction says new cranes feel like playing a video game now.

Ever feel like the new gear just doesn't give you the same sense of what's happening under the water?
