You're the Greatest. We need to make a movie about you. Piece of cake. We just follow the instructions you write down in detail. eg,
Plunged both hands right into the test tank with its soupy water (a tank filled with cold water...with a layer of oil, flux, muriatic acid, dead dragonflies, butterflies, etc...floating on top...)
I know about test tanks too! They're hilarious. They always look like that. Everywhere, on The Planet. No Tivoli Fountain test tanks. No Brita Baths.
I used to clean "The Parts Cleaner Tank." In the Giant Machine Shop.
Because I wanted the parts cleaner tank to not be like a parts cleaner tank. It was a lonely, un-tender thing, to be a cleaning device, that works real good, and be CAKED with SLOP. I felt bad for it.
Really.
Now, the test tank ~ it's not really "worth" it, maybe that's the sensation, to change that. Just add water to the chem-geology; whatever process and history is going on in there.
I had "Wander Around Making Improvements Whatever I Think" Authority; straight from The Man Jack; and crap, we had the only clean parts cleaner tank in effing history.
See? Clean parts cleaner tank. It seems, dignified and respectful. Appropriate. Or, to most everyone else there, completely stupid.
I did it, like, every TWO WEEKS.
Cows Holy, uh?
I think people, greasy pig-o-people, SECRETLY liked it.
How did they lure you out of the office? Fresh air?
I really felt bonded with that parts cleaner tank.
It was green on the outside, where the solvent over-spray had left some. |
