When hiring;
If you can’t fly, don’t land here.

With a pushy boss;
If you don’t like this speed you sure as he!! aren’t going to like the next speed.

With an apprentice frozen by indecision;
We can fix anything, we can’t fix nothing, now do something.

When hooking in the “old days” and you have to be standing on a stump to do this at the top of your lungs;
Run or die you sons o’ bitc#$!!!!

Said of a truck driver;
He’s always right, he talks to his shift knob all day and it never corrects him.

When quitting;
I came here it wear out my old clothes and meet a low class of people, I’ve done both so I can leave now.

Said of a haywire outfit;
I’ve been to two county fairs, smoked rope, saw two goats mate, saw a fat lady shave, and I still haven’t seen anything like this. Now just you go back to the shop and make out my check.

When quitting the same haywire shop on the first day;
Now you don't even need to pay me, I don't want a record of, or anybody to ever know I even thought of working here.

Upon seeing the boss laid out by an irate employee about to quit;
Hey boss, get up, so we can see him hit you again.

...LOL, "your OTHER left"..!!!
IF I had a dollar for every time I said THAT ONE.. {Hey, that's another one..}
"If I had a dollar for every time he [insert situation].... I'd be rich by now"
I used to say "a nickel" cuz it was so common place for the guys to screw up.. AND I COULD get rich with all the nickels..
