Y'all wanna talk about being driven crazy?

I have to write (or have written) a step by step procedure for using a tape measure. It has to have pictures too.

Yes, a fugging tape measure.

For guys that can't use one.

WTF?

If you can't read a tape measure, why are you working in a oil drill factory? Go to Wal-Mart and get a job in the frozen food section or something.

This is one of the things that are wrong with lean manufacturing and American industry these days. We coddle the incompetent and cultivate a work force that cannot think for themselves or problem solve.

If you can't do the job, get out of the way.

Please... tell me you're joking.

I babysit for 4 kids. Three boys and a girl the youngest being a 6 year old boy. Each and every one of them could use a tape measure. I guarantee it.

Evening everyone.

Doesn't suprise me that you had to do a write up like that Scott. It truly is a sad world out there.

I just got back in from pulling some yoohoo out of the ditch up the road from me. He took the corner a little too fast and just about ended up going down a near vertical 15-20 foot drop. What is wrong with people?
It rains most of the day, sleets then snows about 1/2" and they are suprised that the roads are slippery. DUH!!

I spread some sand and salt on the road, put a strap around the rear axle , hooked up a chain to that and the truck and walked him out in 4LO.
