Embarrassing moment!!

Well, today I go outside to roll up the windows in my truck. I just reached across the passenger seat & turned on the ignition, pushed the button & nothing happened! #$@#, power window motor is shot!!! I stood there 5 minutes pulling up on the window, cussing, & kicking the door panel, in an attempt to free the stuck motor. So, I finely get pissed & go over to the driver side to roll them windows up & noticed the power window lockout switch was in the locked position! BUMMER!! Unlocked the lockout switch & it went up like magic!!!:o

Can't read a pressure meter I guess? Ive heard truckers refer to "kicking a tire" when they step behind the truck and spring a leak.

Who was the guy that posted about a year or so ago about sharting his pants on the way to school? That is a moment I would have kept to myself.

You think thats bad, went for a job interview and realized I couldnt park where I did so I go to start the truck and nothing. Just "click click" **** so I just go inside anyways and do the interview. Come back out and still nothing so I pop the hood and find the nut for the positive cable to the solinoid came loose so I go to the toolbox grab a wrench and tighten it up. Whole time I was right outside the window of the interviewers office :o
