fun day at work
heard a beauty at work today, we have nearly finished our latest boat project a 105 foot aluminium super yacht valued at about 5 million squids and they just found out the superstructures roof is 75 mm too low,so the owner cant stand up straight in it, so we got to cut it off and redo it,so all the custom made windscreens are scrape as is all the furniture in there oops the bosses are not very happy with the drawing boys cos they knew about it all the time and kept it to themselves hoping no one would notice stupid or wot

Get them to lower the floor by 75mm
When I worked in the dockyard, my little bro had a tape measure that was 75mm too short. Someone thought it would be funny to press the treadle on the guillotine whilst he was measuring the backstop !!??. Being a tight ass he just riveted the end back on ( Minus the 75mm ) He had a habit of lending it to people. I remember one time, one of the guys asked if he could use his tape to measure a piece of deck plate. he scribbled the measurements on a scrap of paper, gave the tape back and went back into the yard to cut out a pice of plate. After lunch over came the crane wih this piece of plate. it was lowered into place, the look on the guys face was a classic. " How the hell has that happend " was the cry He the asked my brother for another loan of his tape. He re-measured the hole in the deck, looked at his scrap of paper. "It's definately right, I dont understand "  He got the shipwrights out to make a pattern. He never did find out the truth.

Too many chiefs and not enough Indians....
Years ago while working on some fancy arse project we realised the drawing was all to cock so go and see said cad jockey to point out that it doesn't work out...he insists that it does because the computer says it does...so to teach the cock a lesson we carried on only to find the job was totally wrong....who got the blame?....We did because the sly git changed it and never said anything. Moral of the story is to make it regardless because cad never tells lies....yeah righty!

It'd probably be cheaper to pay for the guy to have his legs shortened
