Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Eastern Diamondback?

 

Big nope there

 

Here is my 72 I had….

Canebrake/Timber rattlesnake I think it was

 

He got to drive it too!

 

!

I stared at this screen for several minutes trying to come up with something witty --

I can't even imagine meeting up with that ...

 

wtf be right back

 

Here is my 72 I had….

 

I hear they taste like chicken...

 

It can taste however it wants....

 

Whats the rattles look like?

 

This guy fu.... I mean, overloads!

 

Same as a diamond back

 

Shop pictures of key way cutter. Chomper I call it. There's a picture of the largest bar and max capacity 1" on the table. Below you can see how it works. Kind of like a connecting rod on a crankshaft.

 

had? Had?! HAD?!?!

 

I wanna come work for you, you've got some fun machinesin that shop. I'm somewhat clean, I kinda keep machines in ok working order, I can read at above 5th grade, pass a drug test if I have 6 months notice, show up to work every day, usually sometime in the morning, but most certainly by afternoon, I can think for myself, prints don't tell me what to do. So what ya think? Am I hired?

But seriously though, we just passed through Nebraska going up to Wyoming. I hadn't thought much of it before, but you've got a nice state up there. most importantly, other than the DB that stole my CC number, lots of nice folks. Seems like a nice place to live.

 

Yes unfortunately as the offer was to good to turn down.

 

Still a nope for me

 

Your hired! Few thoughts; people that come from all over the U.S. comment on how nice people are here and one of their favorite places to work a outage because of it.
I put together a bunch of basic machinist questions with a note telling the people doing the interviews that don't know that answer is acceptable. The superintendent said that out of numerous applicants it looked like 2 had some experience, then asked me how is a CNC person different. I kind of had to explain then the 3 levels of CNC operator.
But you nailed a few of key items for me, somewhat clean and machines in working order.
I feel like just give me someone with good mechanical ability, a willingness or desire to learn and capable of following directions and that's something I can work with. The old manual machine operator person is getting more rare by the day.
Thank you for the compliment and sorry about your CC. Come through this way again PM me!

 

Yeah, thought I better not mention the coworkers that now is now SBC powered.
