Boss man needs to ask Ricky to change some trailer tires, maybe fix the wheel hub while the tires off lol. Nothing like a high-powered air ratchet to brighten your day lol
I suggest the following tools and activities to show how much you appreciate Ricky: Air hammer Tamper Strobe lights on fork lift Space Heater Sewage treatment pump Anvil and someone ringing steel on it New guy asking every question in the book Someone working on a weather alert siren Septic pump truck on full vac over the open and steaming cesspit All at once and all starting and stopping at different times with wildly different synchronization
"Hey, Ricky; we need someone go check out the condensation lines off the steam gens. You'll like it, it's nice and toasty warm in there instead of bein' in this cold-ass shop. And we kinda ran outta ear plugs but that's okay because we know you don't like wearin' 'em anyway."
Ricky should have got him some blueprints to look at. Or dump his toolbox, scatter everything like he's looking for something, throw his wrench down and cuss real loud, then take a deep breath and look at the ground. Works every time.😂😂😂
A clipboard, a pencil, the right walking speed, and a concerned look and people will get out of your way and leave you alone because if YOU clearly don't look like you're enjoying what you're doing, they certainly aren't going to wanna join in.
@Y2KNW don't go too far into pissed off though, stick with concerned. If you look pissed you tend to attract the boss man to see what's gone so horribly wrong. Stick with a "QCing the new guy's work, and it ain't pretty" look
@@Mr.Sparks.173 One job, we got stuck waiting for another trade to finish something and when they were done, it was gonna be all hands on deck, but the boss didn't want to assign us anything just in case we had to drop it all halfway thru. So one buncha guys got to sort the fab shop, some others inventoried the material yard, and I got told to find something, but at least give us a presence in the plant. So I got a clipboard, wrote random stuff on it in my 'literally the worst handwriting in the plant" chickenscratch, and followed random pipes in the pipe rack to see where they went, all with one of those "I'm thinking really hard about something" looks on my face and anyone who went by saw me, assumed I was really busy, just said hi and left me alone. Nicest half-day I ever had at that job.
That reminds me of the first day I showed up to school "violently hungover" when learning to be an aircraft mechanic. Sheet metal was the first class of the day. That was the day the instructor paired me up with another student to learn team riveting, where I had to squeeze into a small fuselage and hold the bucking bar for the guy pounding rivets on the outside. I guarantee that the instructor did that on purpose. I hated life that day, but you can't put a price on that kind of lesson.
Got damn, I was in that exact situation when I went to Spartan...the like 95 year old instructor was awesome, knew everything about anything, but if you were hungover, he'd mess with you in ways you cant imagine.
I relate to this on a deep spiritual level. And imma do it allllll over again the next day, because I'll be damned if I'm gonna learn from my actions! As long as drunk-me does a few dishes or something, no hard feelings. I'll power though!
Cleaning the windows if it's a sunny day is a great light duty task for hungover people. You've got the light coming weird angles, the chemical smell of the cleaner, and then you've gotta focus on smudges. Ever tried to clean a smudge away that is part of your vision? 3 rebuild kits worth of time in that task.
We had a guy at work hungover as fuck. First thing he did after the job briefing was find the shop creeper and go under the nearest truck. Rolled between the rear axles and slept until like 2 pm lmao. Our boss was looking for him all day and no one gave him up lol
Lol I worked in a body shop in high school, and there was a guy that was a notorious alcoholic. He'd come back from lunch hammered, then roll under a car and wire his hands up to the frame so it looked like he was working if you walked by.
sorry unfortunately this tab I can't message on rn But the fact he said smile and wave is such a childhood classic saying Madagascars penguins said it before
I absolutely love your videos! No matter how rough my day may be, your videos always make me laugh. Even my boss knows that sometimes I'm listening to your videos just to get through the the hellishly hectic day. ( I had to tell her in case she seen me busting up laughing) Thank you.
My husband had 2 helpers show up that drank so much they were barely sober the next day at work. They regretted that life decision until quitting time. This was repeated for about a week straight until they actually got smart
Well the boss man is gonna put some hurt on Ricky now without even having to call him out for being hung over. Can't wait to see a fallow up video(s) on that.
I break out the air chisel every time my coworker is hung over. When he's about to lose it I start yelling "ORANGE JUICE AND PIZZA!!!" Projectile vomit every time.
When I was still an electrical apprentice, I had a foreman who would come in hung over - despite having a breathalyzer in the company truck. I would purposefully talk louder to him in the mornings.
heh he would fit on my old crew. only reason for a sickday the boss wouldnt deny was hangovers. he was a raging alcoholic and had the rule that all employees should have a beer at 10.30 am + we got totally hammered every day after work. you know its gone haywire when the beertruck have weekly deliveries at your workplace XD
Ah man last time showed up hungover got stuck running the air ramset for 8 hours, next time got running the 80lb jackhammer for 10 hours. Never again, till probably tomorrow...
The entire concept of this is foreign to me. In my profession, it's abnormal not to come in to work hungover. My only excuse is having three kids at home lol.
Oof, my worst hangover ever was tequila induced. I was late coming in, the boss gave me the worst jobs that day. Stinky, strenuous, repetitive & NO help. Then I got mandated for an extra shift. I loved my boss ❤ 😂
Wait till the hangovers turn to DTs, that's super fun! I wouldn't advise any sudden fuckery or questions in that situation. Just know the fucker is handling his job on the brinks of actual death
I worked at a factory for a bit and showed up to work twice hung over and I swear the machines knew it!!! Any other day I would fight to stay awake, but those two days were nothing but jam after jam, coolant lines leaking, label issues, mold problems, and just about every thing else that could go wrong. Never again on a work night.
