While I was walking across the garage, I was thinking to myself "...geez. Here I am working for the largest, most advanced, most profitable automaker in the world. I can't walk over to the tool crib and ask the guy for a "pickle fork"....he's gonna think I'm some kind of small town hick or something".

I sauntered up to the window and, leaning causually on the window sill, trying to be as cool as possible, I said: "hey, can I have a 'ball joint separator'".

Acting like he didn't hear me, without turning around the crib attendant said "...a what?"

"A ball joint separator" I repeated, my chest puffed out with pride.

Looking confused, he said "You mean a 'pickle fork'?"

I put my head down, ego deflated. "yeah, a pickle fork" I said, sheepishly.

I love this story

Me too.

In my high school shop class, if we ever had a stupid question about a tool (and yes stupid questions do exist), the shop teacher would just say “two percent”. We all knew that meant you just need to be two percent smarter than the tool you are using.

Coffee. I went to LAX on a trip out of town, went into starsux for a coffee. Yeesh. >u< I dumped it into a drinking fountain to clear the drain and went over to Cinnabon for a real coffee. Not a joke, though.

Yeah, I walked over to a SB with some folks from work one time. Took a couple sips and brought that regular coffee back to the office and thinned it down with about 9 cups of hot water

And this was out in their home grounds of Washingdone state.
