"I hate stupid people" rant
Re: "I hate stupid people" rant
LOL.....sorry, I deal with stupid every day of the workweek!
I offer the following story as an example.......
About 2 years ago I was sent on a consulting gig to a Company in Alabama that shall remain unnamed. By trade, I'm a welding and robotics consultant. I showed up to said company with a bag of tools and immediately asked one of the supervisors if a shipment arrived that I had sent there. The "supervisor" replied that it had showed up and proceeded to show me the way over to it. I proceed to open the box, which contained welding consumable items and 2 big boxes marked "ER70S Superarc Welding Wire". The following conversation ensued......(BTW, I speak northern, while the "supervisor" spoke redneck!)....
me - Thanks.... I'll get right to installing this after I give the robots a check-up.
him - Allwight......wawt's in the bawx?
me - wire
him - right dare
me - wire
him (after moving closer to the box and pointing) - right dare
me - WIRE
him (after putting his finger on the box where it says "wire") - dis one
me - WIRE....for the welders!
him - Oh......ya didn't hafta yell!
By this time I just wanted to scream......all I could think is "it's going to be a long week!"
I run into more people on a daily basis that make me wonder if the human gene pool needs a lifeguard.

throw my boss in there with the stupid people, he can't help but lie about the stupidest thinbs, like his son's stock dodge stealth has 400 hp, or that a cigarette lighter will explode with the same energy as a stick of dynamite(he said a guy he knew was welding and that his lighter exploded and opened a hole in his chest where his heart just fell right out there on a table and he died right there)

oil: 0W40
quantity: 9........... Nine??? WTH!! They must round up.

If they do alot of oil changes on Crossfires, those 1/2 qts. add up, and eventually they have enough oil saved up to do an oil change with no (out of pocket) expenses.
