A few days ago I posted about an electrical issue with a pickup at my job. I work the night shift. Friday while I was off, during the day, our mechanic "helper" decided he would try to fix it himself. Its a mystery battery draw and I was approaching it carefully to make sure I got it right. He proceeded to pull the fuses and isolate a few possibilities and then totally disassemble the dash and console etc leaving all the parts laying in a pile and wires hanging all over. Leaving me a note more or less saying "he cant figure it out". No one asked him to do it. It is not his job to do it. He has never done this to another mechanic's job. I can reassemble it but you know its always easier when you are the one that took it apart. His "job duty" list is specific and only includes oil changes and things like battery swaps, plugging tires etc. Before you say he was just showing initiative, I want you to know his attitude is "F" this place and everyone here. He and I have had words and he has refused to speak to me for months. Which is fine with me. The MECHANICS share work and help each other out when needed but always with good communication and agreement. I really don't think I should continue on the job. The day mechanic is his friend and so is our "crew leader". Let them figure it out. Personally, I don't know why the day mechanic would watch him do it and not intervene.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
