So i kinda screwed some things up at work the other day and i just thought i'd post it then you guys could write any stories yo have...

So its getting colder up here, its been like a cool 20 degrees for the last few days. So i work graveyard, and on sunday nights when i go into work i am the guy who has to turn on the lights and open some doors and such. My plant has several big building with a million different types of doors. About an hour into the night(12am) a welder came over to tell me that he was finishing up the job in his area and would need a new job to work. So i then have to go outside and open up these three huge metal sliding doors(like 10'x10') to get into the area with all the paperwork and forklifts. the area is not heated but it is on the outside of a heated building. So after a little while out there i saw that there was no job i could give him so i came back in and told him to go grind parts instead. Well i left the doors... the day shift guy came in around 5am and shut the doors. I came into work last night to find that the water evaportor in that room had frozen and broken, flooding the whole area(and its sub-frezzing temps) so they had to take everything out of there store it in a new place, "seal" the area and load the room up with space heaters to help get rid of all the water that was freezing to everything(computer cables parts, paperwork forklifts)

I didn't get in any trouble or anything cause it is more or less a "new" area that i flooded and it would have happened eventually this week, but since I (the youngest person currently employed in the whole compnay) did it people wont let me forget it wink.gif

I know im not the only person who has screwed something up at work, lets hear some stories:)

well once me and my general manager took a brand new lexus LS460L out for a drive to listen for rattles, it only had 87 miles on it(it belonged to a customer). first time driving the car cause it was the first one on our lot..decided to see how strong it was..and end up red lining the car and blowing the motor & tranny..(general manager did it). end up costing us $12700 to put a brand new one in it and we said it was a defected motor from the factory. the whole store knew what we did but all i could say was it was his fault haha even though i was the one pushing him to go faster and downshift haha. this is just for yah to know... biggrin.gif
