A tale about a guy I worked with years ago.He was a big happy go lucky guy who had a bunch of girl friends.The hangar he worked in at the time was a distance from the main flight hangars so rather then come into the main hangars to punch the clock he would go to his hangar and call over to us and the boss would either clock him in or sign his card later.His acft. flew nearly everyday so after he recovered it and had it back in the hangar he'd come over to the big hangars,pick up his time card,any work orders and flight write ups and shoot the breeze with everybody.

Yesterday I was either in bed or hovering over the commode.Boss says "You're full of s..t.I saw you on TV at the Mets game.He says"Umm,boy that was some game wasn't it?
