The bloke hammering nails with a wrench sounds like a breath of fresh air

Capable of lateral thought??

any would have been a start.


No he got sacked for something else, Had him loading sawn billets to the machine for a simple facing op. When they were all done turn them around face the other side to bring to size. He managed to put three out of fifty in the same way twice leaving a sawn face, undersize plate and £6 a time in scrap. Ignoring the fact that the material is held and issued under a traceability system that shows I have only buggered four of these up in the last 15 years and 800 components,was he blind??????



The best "builders excuse" I have ever heard was the plasterer doing my parents extension. Arrives at the job, looks around, turns to my mum and says " I cant start today, I`ve lost the flint out of my lighter".
