I carry a 12 foot tape measure in my pocket all the time. I've found it's just the right height to keep a fuel nozzle wide open without me holding it.
On another note, I once worked for a concrete company. They had a wash out pond that was used by the drivers to clean the drums out. Essentially they could back under an overhead water pipe and use it to fill the truck by cutting on a pump.
When I initially wired it all up, I used a regular on/off switch. This resulted in one of the guys leaving it on over a weekend and burning up the pump. So, my boss told me to try something that required them to hold to keep the pump on.
So, that switch was replaced with a push button. It didn't take but a day or two before the guys figured out they could push it in and wedge a small piece of wood to keep it on.
So, I got a different button, with a solid, rubber cover. Their next thing was finding a board to lean against it to keep it depressed.
I can't remember everything I did in attempt to idiot proof the setup and protect the pump, but my boss finally told me to just give it up.........LOL

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
