oh dear :/
one of the things i do to buy beer and sex is breathing air quality testing, like for escape cylinders and the masks in spraybooths etc...
i was doing some checks earlier cos a guy had been sent home after reporting headaches and nausea after wearing a mask in a shotblasting booth...

speaking to him about the problem was very difficult, as his name was zmqwrczyz or sumat and he'd only just got out the back of a truck.
did my testing and all was ok, spot on, better quality air than i am breathing now.
so i looked at his mask.... he'd only turned the air pressure up to 8 bar lol!
that's like 120psi - should be no more than 30.
frost was forming on his helmet :roll: no wonder he got headache lol!

i said with pressure so high you're lucky it didn't deafen you & blast all your hair off.
he took his hard hat off and showed me a big bald patch -and said ' these iss wery hurtfull to me now' :lol:
it was the expression on his face lol - pissed meself laughing and i think that upset him even more :lol:
he walked off sulking and kept looking back, shaking his head as though it was my fault he'd gone bald! :lol:

actually there is a deep hidden moral.

This is what I imagine twitter is like, people just broadcasting what they did today and others taking the piss out of what they say.

doesnt look much fun so I wont bother with twiter. :Argue:


Benny, to make up for humiliating you customer, you could convert his mask to run on gas & air [like your missus was on when she was giving birth............well before she screamed the roof off and demanded an epidural].....that would at least get him laughing.

or can you feed helium into the line so he talks with a squeeky voice, that would give those working with him a laugh.

post back when you have tested these.

I assume I have also added no value with this contribution, so I will get my coat.

Eeh, I thought it was hilarious! I laughed outloud, :lol: :lol: :lol: Dave asked me what was funny, I read it to him, he laughed and said it would probably be really funny to see if you'd been there, he's not bald either but a tad receeding (she says kindly and lovingly for fear of no tea tomorrow after work :lol: )

did worse later... :oops:

went in another place, and signing in at reception i gobbed a airwaves chewy...
the receptionist said ' aren't you going to offer me one?'

without thinking (as usual) i said ' sorry luv, i didn't think you had your own teeth!'

later found out she is the MD's mrs :think: :silent: :oops:
