Monty by Jim Meddick for February 08, 2025

If the roller is dripping, you’ve too much paint on it.

Should have just used a roller extension handle, would have saved a lot of time :)

Just don’t land in the paint tray.

[True patriot time]

After 9/11 the union craftspeople working on the Pentagon threw away all the normal work rules in order to get the job done as fast as possible.

A lot of folks worked on stilts. The Union rule was that they were supposed to get extra time off on their meal breaks to remove the stilts off and then put them back on. The stiltwalkers just set up some scaffolding as elevated lunch tables and ate with their stilts on.

Just a little reminder that there are people who can serve the country without being pigs.

BTW, did you hear about the DOGE kid who was fired on the first week because he lied about selling data?

They better provide incredible hang time to paint a ceiling.

Why do I think, Monty’s Physics Professor was Wile Coyote?

Now Monty, go back in time and sell a pair to Michelangelo before he paints the Sistine Chapel.

I was hoping to see some pieces of drywall falling around him.

well at least they didn’t go to waste. :)

Ha! Good story arc wrapup!

Hope sproings eternal.
