Pat Riot Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 (edited) I caught one of my guys sleeping on a train he was supposed to be inspecting. He was sitting in the operators seat with his head down. I said his name and he woke up and said “Amen”. I laughed so hard I got light headed. No, I did not write him up. Third shift is a tough shift for some people to get used to. I never did. Otto deleted a word, apparently. Edited August 24 by Pat Riot 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Kloehr Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 Make a cut end-to-end in empty TP rolls. Use them to "clip" wrapping paper rolls tight. No more crumbling rubber bands next Christmas. On the unethical side, if you need a pair of sunglasses, ask at any store customer service counter if someone turned in "your" lost sunglasses some time ago... They may have dozens to choose from. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife bought six sets before she died I'm just now sleeping on the third one. At this rate they'll last 15 more years.

Hell, son, I was eighteen years old before I memorized my name. The Army forced me to learn my serial number (O5 711 238) and the Marines made me memorize my SSN because they had stopped using MC numbers before I joined them. I have my cell phone (nearly a year old now) number taped to the back of the phone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is an excellent idea. My dog Maddie would run and hide. We once found her in our closet buried under clothes that were in the laundry basket. She apparently knocked it over to utilize the clothes for cover. She would not come out for a few minutes after we got the alarm shut off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Education and intelligence are not interchangeable. I've recently heard it said that some degrees, say Transgender Studies, only qualify one to teach the subject, since the subject is useless anyway. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you turn the heat on in a car, it pulls heat from the engine into the cab, thus cooling the engine. It will also make you sweat! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually water from the cooling system is routed through a coil in the passenger compartment where a fan or fans push air through vents sending heat into the passenger compartment. The action of the fans cools the water for it’s return to the engine and cooling system thus helping to cool the overheated engine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
