reminds me of the time i was working in this lawn mower shop and this guy brings
back his mower saying it wont start anymore///

the boss is all angry with me...a short japanese guy with a napolean complex....
kinda nutty really...like mr miagi on steroids with a bad attitude.

so this piece of equipment, i had it starting ........in a half of a pull...
and i had done the most perfect valve job imaginable on it..

so i was extremely puzzled.. saying WTF
pulling and pulling nuthin?

when he origionally brought it in i asked him if he wanted
his oil pan gasket replaced and he declined...it was leaking

i noticed it had been replaced and that gave me a clue...
so i take it apart and as i take the gear cover off
WHAM !!!! there it is plain as DAY the gears were no longer
aligned the alignment holes were off by several teeth...

and that only meant one thing...he had it apart and screwed it all up
and was blaming us...for it and in particular ME...

well i'll tell ya , i jumped back like it was a hand grenade and called all
the mechanics over to witness this crap and confirm what i'm seeing!!
they all agreed with my diagnosis and called in the crabby boss
who wouldn't hear any of it...

old TED got so pissed off he threatoned to hit him with his Hammer
if he didnt shut the hell up and look for himself...

fully vindicated....and now his favorite star...
man did that japanese guy go mental on that guy
you woulda thought he was gonna explode swearing in japanese and
throwing things telling that guy to get his junk outta here and never come back
.....it was a riot... best day on the job ....period...
