Freaked out

I work in a small town in a Fab shop!
I'm a draftsman we build prison equipment
cells, furniture, doors, windows etc.
Its a nice day outside so we opened our office door to drive ourselves insane
wanting to go outside and enjoy it!
Well I'm sitting here WORKING on a (Lumberjocks blogs) prison and theres a shadow
in the doorway. I stopped for a moment and looked out of the corner of my eye and
theres someone standing there. I darn near jumped up and ran through the wall cause
I was working so hard (reading blogs) that I wasnt paying attention.
#1 we build prisons
#2 now days you really cant trust people like when we were kids.
#3 I watch to many CSI shows.
#4 we build prisons
etc…..
Anyway!! that old man is lucky cause he almost got shot with a bananna!
He just comes walking in like he owns the place I have bananna in hand ready to attack!!!
He just strikes up a conversation with me and I relax and put the bananna down but keep
it in reach just in case!
Well we talked awhile and off he went down the road!
Should I eat the bananna or keep it close? hahahaha!
I know this has nothing to do with woodworking but figured it would lighten
someones day!

Lucky Dawg!

The bananna was the only weapon I had at the moment!
He about had a bananna for lunch peel and all! hahahaha!
Wasn't Jacob!! cause Jacob works up front in another office
and we ate lunch together outside earlier. hahahaha!
Multi million dollar door company and we have the crappiest
doors on our office. Most of the time you dont even have
to open the door to feel the great outdoors! hahahahaha!

as an old expert ,

the doors you guys make work just fine ,
a little bit over the top for me though .

you need some one to open them for you .

i don't even know where the keys are for the ones on my house ,
i never lock them .

Last week when the weather was so verrrrry nice outside I had my shop doors open and my windows open. I got the same "jump out of my shoes" scare when something ran past me as I was in a hypnotic sanding trance. Scared the hell out of me. A big possum ran into my shop and scooted around for a few minutes before heading back out the door. I am glad I was only sanding instead of using the table saw

BOOOOOMM!

Thursday with about ten more minutes left of work I was off in my
woodworking daydream time when our maintence man pulled up
next to my open office door he no more than parked the truck
when BOOOOOOOM!!!!!! his right front tire exploded.
I almost ran right thru my own butt to escape!!!
Sounded like a cannon going off right next to me!
I sit about twnety feet from the door and he was about five feet
away from the door. I thought I was a goner!!!!
Well its Monday now door is open again can't wait to see what
happens today!!!!!

Hey while you were in there on your way out of your but did you find anything cool?

Reason I ask is sometimes when you tell someone," Hey that's really cool. Where did you come up with this?" They usually say,"Oh, well I pulled it out of my butt." Hence my reason for asking.

Up date on the skid mark day of the maintance man's tire blowing out!
It's still in the back of his truck he still has the spare on and this morning
I noticed his exhaust pipe is sitting on the ground. Its broke off from the
muffler and now bailing wired back up under the truck which I don't
understand why cause its not attached to the exhaust system!
This is out maintance man where I work! I took some pics of the time
bomb he drives and when I get a chance I'll put them up on here!
Sad but funny!
