What kind of school? I was assuming high school which usually starts in the a.m. You came into the OT in the p.m. I thought you may be confused on the time of day. Just trying to give you a little cr*p. Not so funny when it needs to be explained.

I can't believe I didn't pick up on the pumpkin comments, I usually take everything out of context. Thanks for the reminder guys, I am slipping today.

Hope you feel better soon, Nick! Being sick sucks ***.

No I got to get on the bus after school I got better things to do The kid is 17 years old and he just got his license 2 weeks ago, he also acts like a 2 year old and he thinks he knows everything. I'm surprised the shop teacher didn't say anything to him, The shop teacher saw me on the ground picking up stuff that dropped and he also heard me cussing I bet.


Hey I broke 1000 Posts!

Fooling around in any shop class is a very bad and dangerous idea. I witnessed two idiots fighting over a large belt sander, the type that is mounted to the floor. One of them lost a large portion of one of his hands when the belt grabbed him by the hand and fed it into the down side of the belt. Created a bloody mess that I can still remember 50 years later.

We used to get kicked out - permanently - for any kind of horsing around in shop. That was a long time ago, I'm afraid...

My motto in shop class is "leave other people alone so they can't get back at you".

Wasn't that long ago. We got kicked out of shop for being retarded when I was in school, and I only graduated HS 8 years ago.

You should get kicked out of the shop for screwing around. The shop is not an area to play around in. Too much potential for getting seriously hurt or worse.

Believe me, the "no horsing around" rule ought to apply to EVERY shop... high school, college, back yard, basement garage, professional, etc. I nearly lost my job in a high-end custom cabinet shop right after college (before my "professional" life) because we were tossing little bitty pieces of wood at each other while we were working. Talk about embarrassing... it was just plain stoopid! I've never done anything like that in the 24 years since!

Different day, same shop, without any horsing around... I saw a guy lose the tip of two fingers on a router table while simply wiping away the pile of shavings with the router running! Add some horsing around to THAT, and the potential for serious injury is tremendous.
