Humorous true work story
john neeves
was by a car windscreen fitter, lets call him Fred. He went around to
someone's house and fitted a new windscreen. Some cars are a lot more
complicated to do than others.
After working on one of the most difficult for several hours, he finished
the job and the owners wife came out of the house to sign for the work. Just
then a women drove up, asked if this was Mr So and So's car, they both said
yes.
The new arrival turned to the owners wife and said, I've had an affair with
your husband for two years and yesterday he said he has finished with me.
With that she whipped out a small hammer and wrecked the windscreen. Fred
said his eyes have never been so big.

Could be true, probably apocryphal, still funny in a way because such
things do happen.
A local plumber used to tell stories of how he would show up for jobs
mostly in the inner city and be met by naked women at the door
expecting free plumbing(?) work.

This is not funny or 'humorous', it is boring and badly told.
And 'Fred' obviously doesn't get out much. And how did he know
his eyes were bigger than ever?
All human eyes are about the same size, it's how "tall" your
eyelids open. Does Fred carry around a little mirror to check
his eyes all the time?
Please troll in your own workplace.

Yeah I find it funnier than hell that a glass installer would take several
hours to do the job. If he can't do the job in thirty minutes or less, he'd
be kicked off my property for sure.

Thanatoid, thankyou for your response. If there was a competition for boring
posts you would do pretty well. Lighten up, why can't you ?

Its better to have it take a little longer and be done right. A bad seal
on a windshield isnt much fun.

That would probably snatch the feathers off him and the hens would
never look at him the same way again. 8-)

Maybe he had a few replaced or knows more than you think? A competent
installer can easily replace a windshield in 30 minutes. My guess his
was more of a comment on the "heybub" style "true story"

The fitter must have not only fitted the windscreen but he also
would have mixed, heated, and poured the glass if it took several hours.
The glass dood that replaced the window on my truck did it in 15 minutes
and needed no help.

'thanatoid' is never capitalized.
And trust me, I ***really wish*** I could "lighten up". I can't.

Even, do you realize what is slowly-but-surely happening to your
previously-sharp and on-target brain!?
Stop before it's too late! You're worse than a crack addict!

Depends how much cleaning up is required in the pinch-weld area. I've
seen some that have taken several hours in preparation alone, to be
sure the seal would not leak later.
