Re: Jokes Thread (Keep it Clean)
I got an email from one of the engineers here yesterday about making a modification to one of his projects. It has some 3/16" thick steel plate. He decided that was thicker than necessary, and wondered about the availability of 2/16" plate.
I just changed the model and drawing to 1/8" and sent it to him to review, but I wish I had responded with "I don't think we can get 2/16" plate. Can we use 1/8" instead?"
He's a good guy, and this was out of character for him, but I couldn't help but be amused.

I believe he did grow up using the metric system, but he's been here close to 30 years.

Re: Jokes Thread (Keep it Clean)
That seems like an extreme response. When I first saw it I assumed there had been other replies and the OP had said something to precipitate that reaction, but that doesn't seem to be the case.Frederick_Law wrote: ↑Thu Sep 15, 2022 3:04 pm Someone having a really bad day:

If he lined them up short to long (instead of long to long and short to short) he wouldn't have the vans hanging out in the street. His OCD needs a little fine tuning.

I worked with a fellow that insisted it was not a Disorder. He also said it should be CDO because that is the alphabetical order.

Re: Jokes Thread (Keep it Clean)
Well the response checks two of the three boxes. It was concise, provided clear direction of what to do, but the advice given probably won't solve the problem.Frederick_Law wrote: ↑Thu Sep 15, 2022 3:04 pm Someone having a really bad day:

Jokes are funny, that's just sad...It is "the dark pit of despair and frustration", afterall.

First of all, I wouldn't recommend to use the couch, it can get a bit messy.
On the other hand, I now have a wonderful singing voice ...

This would be a lot funnier if it wasn't our lot being destroyed. Check the timer in the upper left hand corner. It took him almost an hour to escape. (This is 32x speed.)
Did I mention this happened on Saturday morning? Right after 24 hours of rain from a hurricane.
