Oh you should have heard the jokes we made about the springs we sent you from my last employer. Such things as "good thing we aren't sending these to the school bus plant. Wait we are?" Or "stay well back from the Freightliners".

Actually I am pretty happy that I have not had a bad part yet. Believe me the hourly quality guys try very hard to catch us with one so they can raz the hell out of us. Been a long long time since I ran equipment and even though it is sort of fun it is also a great reminder of why I wanted off the line in the first place.
Tcoat ......... "on the line" ........

I have no idea how you did it but that guy looks so much like me it is scary. The equipment on the other hand is not even close. We are talking 10 or so machines the size of small trucks all joined together.

OK, I've stalled long enough ....... time to get the ladder out and spray the roof with moss-off.

A 74 year old man on a ladder on a roof ...... now, what could go wrong ...... ??

Well, yes, and he did get up there and sweep all the stuff off the roof ......and let me know that there was moss up there. At the time I didn't have any moss stuff on hand, although he volunteered to apply it.

So, armed with a hose proportioner, I climbed up a ladder and hosed away. It's only a single story house, so the furthest I could fall was about 10'.

I did not fall ...... and my typing finger is still in good shape ......
