It takes a minute or 2 to update.

kewl. :D

[Grimmy]

Yea, when you are on a slow ass connection like I have here are work, then you are ok, becuase it takes 1-2 minutes for a page to load. Now if I go home, then it is right now.

Posting here at work, I have to have lots of windows open, because I won't wait for everything to load, but at home, just one. I love cable :D

[Mr Clean]

When do you actually get any work done? And for that matter, what do you do for a living? (if you don't mind me asking)

[Grimmy]

Yes I get work done. Yesterday was just a slow day, so I had a lot of slacker/smoke break times :mrgreen:

I am an electrician for a stamping factory. We stamp out automobile parts. If I had some pics of the presses, I would show ya. We are getting ready to fire up our newest press, press 26, which is a 2000 ton press and it is HUGEEE.

Maybe they will let my take my digi cam in and take a pic.

[Mr Clean]

That would be cool to see. My dad works at a place that does all kinds of cool stuff, like plasma laser cutting, bending steel sheets a foot thick (now that's a machine), and they have a 1000 ton hoist at the back of the shop.....dude

[Grimmy]

That is a big hoist. We have a 50ton, and a couple, think 3 30ton hoists also. I will see what I can do as for pics. They are running this weekend, so many I could go and take a pic.

[Mr Clean]

They use that hoist to lift some of the speciality items they make, like these huge cooling towers for oil refineries. They load it on a rail car and push it down to the river (Mississippi) and put it on a barge....

I'll see if I can get some pics of that thing as well....

[Grimmy]

Kewl, we use our 50ton to move big coils of steal, the dies out of what we call the backline, which it 6 presses right in a row. I piece of flat steel goes in, and then through all six presses getting different things done to it, and then out the end. Most are finished by the end of the 6th one, and then ship out, but others have to get parts welded on to them and stuff like that.

[Mr Clean]

Yeah, they got some welders that do some amazing things, like welding multiple types of metals together in layers in stack assemblies and stuff....pretty precision stuff...

[Grimmy]

Kewl. I should have taken the cam with me yesterday. I was looking for something to do, everything ran very well. I like those days :D

[Mr Clean]

You know, this has turned into the Clean and Grimmy thread. (Or Grimmy and Clean thread if you really want top billing). I bet all the other sorry posters at GM are insanely jealous.... :D

[Grimmy]

lol, they probably are. I thought it was funny how this thread started, and then how it got so off topic. Starting to feel like the blabla or the lounge thread :mrgreen:

[Mr Clean]

Off topic? I can't even remember what the topic was.....

[Grimmy]

lol, me either, wonder if it was something do to with work topic?? if not, we should make one!

[Mr Clean]

But we'd just get off topic from that anyways. What we should do is start one on another topic and then switch it to work when no one is looking.... :twisted:

[Grimmy]

hehhehe, we can do that in any topic!! :D

[Mr Clean]

We should have an offtopic clan! Course we would never get around to starting it because we'd be busy doing something else... :D

[Grimmy]

It is already started. It just happens in every thread! lol

[Mr Clean]

This thing is bigger than GameMecca itself.....

[Grimmy]

Yea it is!!

[Mr Clean]

Call Guinness! (The beer guy, not the world record keepers...) :D

[Grimmy]

mmmmmmmmmmm beer sounds good right now!!

[Mr Clean]

I'd post something witty but instead I'm going to hit submit and then hit the fridge and submit myself to a brew-dog....

[Grimmy]

Sounds like a good idea Clean!

[Mr Clean]

And it was....especially that old can of Michelob Golden in the back of the fridge with an Aug 99 born-on date...yummy

[Grimmy]

ewwwww how gross!! Bud Light only here !

[Mr Clean]

Cash is a little short so I was scraping the bottom of the fridge....I guess its cough medicine time tonight....

[Grimmy]

lol, just make sure you have enough of it :mrgreen:

[Mr Clean]

well, let's just say my cough is taken care of until 2013...

[Grimmy]

now that you said that, I woke up this morning with a little of a sore throat. :(


It is all your fault dammit!

[Mr Clean]

Have a six pack of Bud Light tonight and get some sleep....

[Grimmy]

I would, but I have to work tomarrow also. They are behind in parts, so they drag me in to make sure everything runs good :mad:

[Mr Clean]

Have a six pack of Bud Light, two aspirin, and get some sleep... :D

[Grimmy]

sleep?? what is that?? Also what are the asprin for?

[Mr Clean]

Supposedly if you take two aspirin and a glass of water before you go to bed you won't wake up with a hangover....

[Grimmy]

I don't get hangovers, I just make sure I get enough sleep!

[Mr Clean]

Well, yeah, if you want to do it the right way..... :D

[Grimmy]

I didn't do it the right way this morning. But all is good, it was a rowdy night here last nite!

[Mr Clean]

I wish I could say that. I just drank Triple Sec and hooked up our new DVD player....

And I was better at drinking.... :roll:

[Grimmy]

lol

well I had some beer last night, probably too much, but I am not going to tell you what I did, for it is over now and we can move on!
