5:30 this morning, a 600 volt 1200 amp fuse decided it was time to say fuck you...
Yeah it was a wonderful start of the day...
Parts supplier ( awesome people by the way ) tell me that I can pick up the fuse from their source. 40 minutes there, 40 minutes back through stupid illinois commuters, yeah you know my shouted language....
It was pretty creative....
Come 6:00, bewildered mexican temp workers are looking to me why are half of the lights off?
After fourteen years, never learned that language....fuck them, learn my language...
Com Ed, "we will be there in two hours..." never saw them...
My chief pull the old fuse ( that high voltage shit makes me wet myself ) bolts the new one in plus the other two and we button up the panel...
Slowly put power to the entire plant, one disconnect and breaker at a time...
And after that I'm going to give you a scarlet fever post...
If you don't approve, too bad...
Criminey! Like red.
ReplyDeleteI hate to say this Doc but whatever started it that was OUTSTANDING! Gregb
ReplyDelete600v 1200 amps makes the sane people wet their pants. That's why the line crews have those orange rubber thingies and big gloves for fusable links. That must be why the luscious reds.
ReplyDeleteYeah, my ark flash gear is old and far past certification...the main joke this morning was the meme where there was a outline of a man in ash with the text about experienced electrician needed...
DeleteAll that at work and you still put out a fantastic spread.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all you do.
I think an appropriate title would be "God really does love us". He gave us all these beautiful women. But He also knows that we are prone to acting without thinking. That is why those beautiful women are also crazy.
