During desert storm I told a lady I worked with I have a bunch of buddies that are shipping out. Told her they are a day ahead over there, so the Powerball numbers are out a day before...asked if she wanted in on this plan. She responds, " oh my God, do you think it'll work?" While grabbing her purse to hand over cash.

I gave a job to one of my simpletons this morning, a control panel with cutouts for switches and lights going on a custom machine. When I mentioned that one of the small holes was for a pilot light, just an indicator that power is on, he cocked his head and asked "This thing run on gas?"  

Another guy was sweeping up around the manual mill. I was setting up a job and one of my old timers said, "I cut my teeth on one of those machines." The sweeper looked puzzled and said "Fuuuck! How did you manage to do that?"

I worry for the future generations

Head dispatcher at the PD, complaining about no network connectivity. When the tech gets there, she is connecting to a wirless network, and it is asking for a password. Tech asks what password is, enters it, and boom.

Same dispatcher called in one of their phones was not working. I go look at it and sure as shit, its dead. Look around at the jumble of wires, the phone power supply is unplugged from the power strip. I pull out my trusty zip ties and tie it down to the strip. I even tell them to check the power supply next time. $120 charge for 2 mins of work is fine with me.

I've lived where I am at now for four years. I can navigate anywhere around the city without getting lost and am usually the one shuffling people around at work. What I can't do is give a name for any of those streets at all. I was brought up with everyone giving landmark instructions and that has stuck with me to this day. I can tell you to turn right at the McDonalds with the broken sign but couldn't tell you what street you are actually turning onto.

Still, that doesn't stop me from looking up at a street sign and being able to read it I guess.

In fairness the first one might be correct.  Only it should be stated as "Stop sending email back and forth between your work account and your Gmail account, fucknuckle!  Your phone got compromised so now every email address in there is getting the same shitty spam messages, only your friends and relatives already KNOW you are a tool.""

Dispatcher calls me, 0100 on a Sunday, says she needs me to come fill in on dispatch because she can't keep up AND write up an alarm at the same time.
4 hours later, there's been like nine calls total. Hey, are you done writing up that alarm yet? Yes? Were you planning on letting me finish your shift? You know I have to finish patrols and so on, right?
I also came in the ops room many times and she was 4 pages behind on the log, with handwritten notes all over the desk to be entered later.
"Oh look, I figured out how to reorganize the police courts surveillance cams!"
And that's another
She got fired a month later.

Customers or coworkers?

A week or two ago my boss noticed that the hatch on one of our Ford Focus' wouldn't stay open. He was annoyed, and said someone probably installed these in backwards at the factory.

Attachment Attached File


He asked me if we could take them off and flip them around so the hatch would stay open.

As was explained to me, they're like springs. If you have a spring and push down on it, it pushes back. If you flip the spring upside down, it will push the other direction.

No heat call.
Room temperature is 50F
All thermostats are set to 90F.

Why are the thermostats set to 90F?
Because we wanted heat.
What are they normally set to?
72F
So since the room wasn't getting to 72F you decided that setting the thermostats to 90F would get it there?

My temperature is normally 96, so 98 is a fever for me. (Umm, no it's not.)

My cold always turns into bronchitis, so I need the antibiotics now. (No you don't. It's still a cold, as we're most of your supposed bronchitis cases.)

I know my body. (Anyone who says this, usually doesn't.)

I have a high pain tolerance. (No you don't. People with a high pain tolerance don't even think about pain. It's not part of their life. You have a high pain 'med' tolerance.)

Oh I know. I tried explaining how they worked. He argued with me about it for about five minutes, called me an idiot, and doubled down with the spring analogy.

Co-worker was on the phone with a customer who needed shocks. My co-worker covered the phone with has hand, looked at me, and asked "does the shock come with the absorber or do we sell them separate".
