Working at my factory jobs for 45 plus years, around 9:30 everyone stops to have a 15 minute coffee break. I still have the same time frame working in my shop, or around the house. I get the urge for a snake, and coffee about that time. Working on my tractor in the field, the only time I stop is to take a leak, or if something happens. I carry my lunch on my tractor. and around 11:30, (another factory time) I have a quick lunch. Between two breaks a day, BS time, smoke time, coffee in the shop anytime. Considerable production time is lost. Working as a maintenance mechanic if a piece of equipment goes down we were expected to work on it until it was going again, if that meant no brakes or lunch. I guess I was fortunate to work for some good companies. I retired from the Unisys (formally Burroughs) computer co after 36 years. I imagine that doesn't happen on auto assembly lines, or mechanics working flat rate. Time to get back to work, or the boss (wife) might fire me. Stan

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.
