Use hammers, rubber mallets or sledge hammers anymore. Shattered some supposedly completely shatter-proof tool thingy used to hammer the caps back on the guns. Harley, my trainer, told me get the rubber mallet and rare back and hit it as hard as I could. I did. Some of the pieces should be hitting the US coastline in the next day or so.

Not allowed to use cheater-bars anymore.

The gun caps have to be tightened to 950 foot pounds of torque. Harley told me to use a cheater bar and go at it as hard as I could. Too bad those things are so damned expensive. They shouldn't be for they break too easy. Supposedly rated to over 2000 foot pounds of torque my ass. Can't use cheater bars anymore. Dammit...

Needless to say the folks around here are starting toi learn how to phrase things better in relation to me. Hard as you can= get it tight. Very tight= don't strain. Tight= hand tight. Snug= use yer damn fingers. Etc...

Yer fibbing - simple math illustrates what you can/cannot do.

I reckon you did things badly and broke some shite - whether intentionally or not.

If ya had any fucking sense, you'd figger out and learn what parts needed what force from higher up people than the walking toolbags and use it. You can break things - so why ain't you careful now, for chrissakes?

Tell the bosses you broke stuff because you were told to and you're big enough that they have to special order helmets for ya - and then start capitalizing on the skills you can't necesarilly list.

Best of luck despite my bad advice. :)
