Sure I work in colder weather.


In a heated garage..


Duh...

Wink

I've probably posted this true story elsewhere, but Ibedamned if I'll go look. In '75 I worked at a shop in Idaho. The shop was heated up to 40F (maybe it was 50F, fucking cold, in any event) in the winter. Fuck OSHA I guess. Anyway, I was putting marker lights and reflectors on a stake bed truck so that it could pass state inspection, and the snow was melting and dripping on me. Stinky.  Dodgy I asked the boss what the guy did with that truck, and he told me, "He hauls hogs to market". I told him that I wasn't going to work in those conditions, so he told me to take it back outside and let the snow freeze (it was February in Idaho!). And that is what I did, with a nice hot bath when I got home from work.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
