What did you do at work today?

I've somehow gone my whole life without ever seeing that movie but it's going on the Watch List immediately. We have some unofficial names for a few of the colors but management was visibly uncomfortable with Rapeseed Yellow (deliberately pronounced it incorrectly even after being corrected) because they're pretentious prudes so we don't write things like "Devil Dick Red" or "Flesh Hammer Blue" in Sharpie. The majority of our guys come from work release so everything is sexually explicit. Some of the actual names for colors are pretty wild but I'm drawing a blank at the moment.

so, you don't have Black being renamed as Satan's Bunghole? 😁

Not yet, but we did arrange a shelf so a box of Ivory is surrounded by 4 boxes of Ebony, with Black Wrinkle watching. Uncle Kracker, meet King Wrinkle.

The arrangement is a reference to p*rn, a particular one that turned into a meme. I don't think anyone there even knows the song let alone the artist- hell I forgot the artist. But every one of these dogs knows p*rn like palm of their hand.

So you guys are the dirty bastards taking down the old Froggy's building. Think of the history that'll be gone. Oh, I forgot it's downtown Pittsburgh, bring in more & bigger machines & make it all flat. Start with those damn bike lanes. But leave the convention center cause we need somewhere to see cars in the winter.

Got to drag the crane truck back to the shop, the mechanic was going out in it to try and get one of our grapples working on our biggest machine. He called and said he heard rod knock, so I told him to shut it down and call the boss so he can make the call. Then it ended up losing oil pressure so drug it back to the shop.....

Well. . . It was two days ago. I had to leave the job I was currently working due to Sinus Issues I was having, likely with the Cajun Spices in the Flour I was working with. It was causing a constant irritation and infection up in the nose region. Hope to find something else as soon as I heal so I can continue beyond what I saved up do to body work and Paint. I hated leaving this job it paid well, probably won't find any other like it.

Ran down to fuel the machines since they are working nights which is probably a lot eaiser on them, I was sweating my balls off trying to get to our high reach for the operator to say he didn't need that one fueled but asked if I could get him a couple pics of progress. Filled up the light plants and a skid steer while I was there
