Glance over your shoulder..

[Mikey P]

I know everybody here is guilty of this and I sorta laugh when I catch myself doing it ... but how often do you nerd out and start getting overly technical with the customer and their eyes go over your shoulder and they're thinking about how to cut this conversation short and get to the point..?

 

[Papa John]

It's good to be concise.

Brandi reminds me all the time...

 

[Old Coastie]

Flapping your hands suddenly will help the b*st*rds focus.

only when I explain why code requires a P-trap and we can't use/reuse their J-trap under the new kitchen and bath cabinets ...

.L.T.A.

 

[steve_64]

You would think we would learn better. But some still want to hear the spiel so I try.

 

[BIG WOOD]

A couple weeks ago. I did it. Slapped myself when I got in the truck. IDIOT!!!

 

[steve_64]

The trick is knowing when you lose them and how to just end it gracefully and get to work.

Do any of y’all still use your Frank Nehei pocket microscope?

To any of y’all still use your Frank Nehei pocket microscope?

That's the first thing I victoriously yank out of my pocket after they crack open the door and ask "who is it?" And I push the door open with great force to speed to the couch....(*Mrs Piff falls against the wall, shock on her face*) And bury my face in the cushion with the lil' microscope.....

"yesss, I found it Mrs Piff, it is truly disgusting, we'll clean it right up"

You forgot emulsification..

 

[DAT]

Let me get this straight...i thought any prespray, detergent etc all acts as emulsifier when properly agitated to suspend particles and oils for extractions... You just need correct surfactant to stabilize the emulsion for more effective extraction..

Nano technology and subatomic particles was stupid thing to say.. but saying emulsification stupid?

I have this happen from time to time...like every time a customer or student asks me a question...every time someone asks me something about ecology or natural history...ok I guess it happens to me most all the time.

My best friend tells me: "You should come with subtitles"

My fathers asks me: "Why don't you use words most people understand?" (He edits my articles)

My girlfriend says: "You don't talk like a normal person"

Guilty as charged

 

[Desk Jockey]

You're not a normal person. Just tell them You're Mighty.
