Boss's son an account major. Boss stuck kid with me for a summer job. Running 1/2" copper and every measurement was wrong. Finally I watched the kid.If I asked for a six foot hunk a pipe he would take a six foot folding rule and measure 12" six times.
He is going to need the long weight soon. Go and ask Joe for one. And then the long stand. Bill might have one. Maybe even the striped paint to finish the job neatly. Such larks.
At supper, my Granpa Jack told me: "Winter is coming. LM, you best loosen the lug-nuts on the tractor so they don't freeze." I suspected something was up after I noticed all the old folks trying real hard to not grin.
Apparently, instructions are difficult to give and understand.....
