Popular Post BR46 Posted February 23, 2022 Popular Post Share #1 Posted February 23, 2022 Some miss communication between my son and I. I will order some parts through his work place because I can get them for half the price. Me texting my son. Me. Here a list of parts can you order them and have them sent to my house. Son ...yes....I can get them next day then have them shipped to your house through work. Over a week goes by and I still don't see the parts... Me....did you order the parts Son....no. Me....why Son...you didn't tell me to. You just asked if I could. You think a senior engineer would be smarter. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bikeguy Posted February 24, 2022 Share #7 Posted February 24, 2022 A conversation today with WoBG. We were watching a movie dated in the 70s. There was a black dial wall phone in the kitchen. BG: Did you see that phone? WoBG: Yes. We didn't have one like that, did you? BG: Yes we did. WoBG: Where was it? BG: On the wall. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my son was getting back at me for something that I said at a race in Alabama. We were sitting around with a bunch of other racers enjoy a evening drink and my son was telling a story of his early days of racing and it started with......when I was young and stupid and I said ......now you're just stupid and everyone laughed. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spock was/is the character that I would have been in Star Trek. One movie quote about assumption I love, was in Under Siege 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When a engineer who doesn't even knows what a combination wrench is tells you to make this and I tell him that the machine can't make that they don't believe me. Or when the engineer asks me.....how long will it take to switch the machine over to run xxxxx product and my response is 2 to 3 days they say that just a number you made up. I would point at my toolbox and tell them to show me how to do it faster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
