    Hmm, maybe time for a "Help Wanted" sign out front? Some people aren't motivated unless they're starving.

    Good point, in fact in my experience half of the "mechanics" at any shop aren't really mechanics. And, no matter how much they insist on being called "Technicians" or "Mechanics", they're really just parts changers, and barely that.

    I wonder what he meant by "in the automotive industry"?

    It sounds good, but it has no soul to it.

    When a 20 minute truck thermostat change turns into 4+ hours. Who invented cross threading anyway 🤬

    It was the guy who said “sure it’s starting out tight but surely if I just keep cranking on it it will get better”

    Pretty sure he works at the same place I do.

    Usually I can feel if it’s going a little bit sideways. However, the female thread had a conical opening. I’m not sure why but it did. Like I needed a funneled opening to start the threads. No wonder I didn’t feel it right away. Never got tight, especially not forced. Pretty crappy set up for sure. Oh well. What can I say. $h!T happens.

    A good cigar and the open road solve most problems.

    Nope. Played that hand dozens of times. Always the same.
