Default Dumb......

Years back, having started a new job doing machine work, I asked the boss a question about a job I was working on. His reply, How the Hell do I know, thats why I hired YOU.......After that I took the bull by the horns.....

i hope he was just trying to be a hard ass... i never found out what really happened. i do know he really did tear it off in the shop door, it was the ones where you pull the chain and it slides the door upwards. his finger caught the chain and went all the way up to the top as the door slammed down... he claims he never went to the hospital.

Default Living at home......

My father was my Boss till I moved out and got married. I was raised on a farm.......Hows the saying go about idle hands, and one of his favorites.....Hard work never killed any body willing to work, only those that worked harder trying to get out of work.......On the farm, you don't work you don't eat.....

My boss and I are good friends. We share the same views and have a saying in common that we relay to the newbies.

Fu*k around, Fu*k around, pretty soon you won't be around.

And a serious talking to is a "look Fu*ker speech".

I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

Something my boss just told me...

I already clocked you in. 2 hours ago.

Gee, thanks boss! I was actually on company business, sort of. Finally finished my probationary period, and was doing paperwork for my permanent hire.

This was years ago but I've been using it ever since.

Me; "Master, you shorted me five hours on my check"
Master; "Yea, well, I'd rather owe you than screw you out of it".

I had a chief engineer who was in his 70's and missing a finger. He was standing over me as I was unbolting an exhaust collar on the main engine. The wrench slipped off and hit me in the nose, and blood started pouring out. I stopped to wipe the blood off my face and he yells, 'Dont quit working because your &@$!* is bleeding!... Get in there!!!'
