But it only sparked a little!

as promised the third and best story of that lay over at the terminal. ok so we were sitting there in the lounge and just passin the time talkin. this one little fella asks about proper chaining of tires and asks if they snap often. well all of a sudden the door swung open and a very pissed off shop foreman came in and shouted who has truck number such and such. well that little fella says that it was his, well the foreman goes over to him and says ok so you told us you needed a new mud flap, and i still don't understand how the hell you managed to put the damn chains on backwards, but what about the f'ing fuel tank? to which the driver replies, fuel tank? whats wrong with the fuel tank? i just filled up on the other side of the pass. well this threw the foreman into anaphylactic fits. he said, wait you JUST fueled? yeah. oh dear god weren't you looking in your mirrors? well yeah. didn't you notice anything odd? well yeah there were some sparks when the chains went. ok and the rest of the way here? well it was only sparking a little bit. dumb ass you were dragging your right side fuel tank. its damn near bone dry, you are lucky you didn't cause a major problem!

yeah so not only did the guy put the chains, cam side in, and they busted and ripped off a mud flap but they also broke a strap on the fuel tank. he dragged it in, rubbed a hole in it and leaked fuel all while sparking "a little bit". lol some people just make you want to scream.

well more next time if you have any question etc feel free to ask.
