This rig supervisor was out on a pipe maintenance job, and he started working on a Findlay pipe head with a Langstrom seven-inch gangly wrench. Just then this little apprentice leaned over and said, 'You can't work on a Findlay pipe head with a Langstrom seven-inch wrench.' Well, this infuriated the supervisor, so he went and got Volume 14 of the Kinsley manual, and he reads to him and says, 'The Langstrom seven-inch wrench can be used with the Findlay sprocket.' Just then the little apprentice leaned over and says, 'It says 'sprocket', not 'socket'!'






You two need to get a room...



Finally got a room in camp. Did half the job and got to go home for 16 hours. Back this morning and same old shit.

At least the weather has warmed up from -40 to 20 or so.
