Well a friend of mine who was a plumber/electrician had a different take on that when it came to plumbing in a house. He would say that "$hit runs down hill and stick goes up hill", that's how you know which way to install drain and vent pipes!

And my favorite stolen from another rider:

"You must always push the limits.
Because if you never fail
you will never succeed."

An electrician needs to know something, all a plumber needs to know is sh*t runs downhill

Don't recall seeing that job at career day when I was in school

Its not truly screwed up till the government gets involved

Never pound with a big wrench when a small one will do

If you think its high priced now, wait till its free [referring to health insurance]

His daddy should have rolled over and shot him out the window

6 billion sperm and he's the fastest swimmer??

I'm not saying he's an alcoholic, all I'm saying is we should wait till his alcohol stream has some blood in it so then we can test it, referring to passing a drug/alcohol test.

A customer told me this a few years back in referring to his new JD tractor, the only good thing about it is the 800 number engraved on the side frame, I asked what 800 number and he told me. The one you dial, its 800 get your a** out here and fix this POS in referring to the warranty.

Heard this today about a guy's ex-boss. "I don't know what we should do, but get started and tomorrow I'll come by and tell you what you're doing wrong."
