come-a-long

I work with 95% boys, and the other day I asked them if any of them knew what a come-a-long was... So far 2 out of 20 knew! I couldn't believe it, and when trying to explain it, 6 of them knew what a winch was!! So I'm curious, how many people think that the majority of people they see everyday know what a come-a-long and a winch are!

 

They are just a bunch of young boys (20-27 years old) who work in the food services department at a hospital. I'm the department secretary.

 

I like this, a girl that knows what a come-a-long and a winch are?! You don't see that everyday.

 

I think most of my friends know what those are, but some of my coworkers would only know what a winch is (if they even knew what that was).

 

Your not so old yourself

I have no clue what a "come a long" is

 

hahaha I feel like meeting people who DON'T know what they are is something you don't see everyday!

 

I know I still feel SO bad about that! And the crappy thing is that I can't guarantee it won't happen again because sometimes they will wheel me away in my chair and try to change my facebook status! ugh! Try being the only girl in a huge group of guys. I get picked on like you wouldn't believe!

 

did I say I was old?

 

I was so mad I got suspended and had to explain what happened to let me get back on! I was like CRAP it won't even let me delete it!

 

Nope...just said "a bunch of young boys" like you were older than them

 

this needs to move to the UG jk

 

It really depends on where you are talking about. Out in the small towns that are so small you could call a Village, everyone knows what they are, even the grandmas. Come to the big city and damn near no body knows what a come-a-long is.

 

If you need anything deleted that you can't delete on your own, just PM or email Bob or one of us moderators. We will get it handled for you.

 

That's not fair really...

Just because they're men doesn't mean they're gonna know about that stuff.

Not all men are into 4WD, offroading, towing, hauling, dirt, automobiles or other related things.

 

Now this is true. Some get their kicks out driving to the local Nordstrom's or Saks Fifth Ave. in their F-350 mall crawler that doesn't have a hitch nor a fifth wheel and buy a new pair of 300 dollar pre-worn, designer jeans.
