    Re: The scary call outs

    I tried to get one pointed at me one time. I was fixing the copier and a guy in the weapons room was cleaning a 50 cal machine gun. I tried to get him to point it at me while I was at the copier as if to say "fix the damn copier" and let me get a picture. He would not do it , he thought he would get in serious trouble.

      You could try to say something colorful about his mother.

      - *pointing gun* You son of a...

          we used to go to a copier at a private house, where they had a "guard dog", this was the days before mobile phones, we used to turn up & toot our horn & wait for someone to put the dog away, while we were doing this, the dog would be jumping alll over the vehicle, barking & snarling, we had a delivery driver who thought that as he was a "dog lover" he would be ok,he got out & tried to pat the dog, the dog enjoyed the taste of his hand.....
          Tip for the day; Treat every problem as your dog would.....If you cant eat it or f*ck it....then p*ss on it & walk away...

              I also hate when the customers come barking at me... I could say "bite me!" to them, but I'm afraid to get some disease of sorts...

                        Just make sure you stay on her good side, Kid.
                        Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Coke in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!".

                            Had to fix on a military base that destroyed nerve gas.
                            You required to fit and carry a gas mask and carry a self injection kit.
                            If the siren went off the was some serious s*** going down.
