What did you accomplish today?

I swear...... a lot, not in anger, just normal conversation. I've had more CS people hang up on me mid conversation than I can count be because I casually dropped a F bomb. I've learned to try and watch what I say when I deal with them, but it still occasionally happens. I don't understand how people get so offended by casual profanity. If it's not directed at you, fucking ignore it.

These guys won't hang up on you...

Worked my first day on the assembly line. :roll: There's no written build procedure, there's no parts documentation. The guy teaching us only knows to do step 1,step 2, step 3 but can't explain WHY it's being done that way. He can't explain how to check if parts are right and there's a couple very similar bearings and seals. He just keeps saying you'll have to remember. I'm a very technical person, I need to understand the is ands outs of what I'm doing so I can do it my best and so I can figure out better process that are easier. I've already seen some things I'll be having them change that I couldn't believe they did. Hammering bearing races in without a race driver tool or even a block. They don't even tap them square, just drop it in and WHACK! And they're worried about harmonics in the product. LOL :dunce:
I do quite a bit of fab/machining and I swear at least a couple of times a day someone asks me to make/modify something using their hands to show me the dimensions.
I hand them a measuring tape, digital calipers (cause most idiots can't figure out how to use dial) and a pad of paper.
"Write down EXACTLY what you want done & I'll do it"

Like I'm some kind of fuckin mind reader.

88F and RH is 38%.

Haven't been fishing in years. Used to catch a lot of bluefish and Spanish makarel outside the Port St. Lucie inlet in FL. Using spoons or flares.

Went to an interview at grow site the size of a hockey rink. Still in the construction phase. Pruned my garden for the second time, Day 115. Wrote a template cover letter, did some errands, reprogrammed the thermostat, went for a run, arranged a date for a concert on Friday.

None of this is true, mainy. Though I'm sure it's more interesting than what you actually did...
