Who hasn’t sworn the paint off when the fingers, toes and knuckles get bent and scraped?
Who hasn’t thrown an offending tool away in pain? And then had to find said offending tool?
I raise my hand proudly…
Working in trhe garage with my late father was a lesson in how to swear car parts into place. He was working on My sisters 1967 Mercury Cougar and the rear brake shoe would not on on. So he threw it across the garage swearing all the while of course. What he did not see was his toddler age daughter standing in the doorway of the garage. She went back into the house and repeated what he said. I do not remember what my mother had to say about that. but I did not see my little sister in the garage until she was older.
If you ain’t getting scraped, cut, or serious skin removed, you ain’t workin’!!
Cussin’ goes with the territory.
Oil Bath Air Cleaner.
NICE!
Saw that too.
I don’t miss ’em.
I raise my knuckle busted hand.
In my twenties at a function for my Dad he said you look like you been in a fight.
I lied, said I was knuckle bustin putting new shocks on my vehicle the day before. I souflayed (wrestling term) the guy and my fists drove right into the parking lot pavement. The rest of the story is funny.
When I was 14 I worked at a Service Station/ auto shop. All the Mechanics were veterans. I learn a lot real fast. Especially when to duck and cover. Best education I ever had.
