Boomer.
If I were an employer, I'd employ Boomer. He's a conscientious grafter.
One weakness. Not good in unfamiliar situations.
Threading up a galvanising line is a bit like threading up a sewing machine, but the 'thread' is a bit heavier, and the 'machine' a bit bigger.
To this end, Boomer agreed to climb the many flights of stairs to the top of the furnace with an unwieldy reel of webbing for the purpose of attaching to one end of the sheet steel strip and pulling it to the top. Only someone with Boomers determination and strength could have achieved this climb.
When he reached the top he dropped the webbing through the furnace to the bottom as requested.
Would have been better if he'd kept hold of one end and not thrown the lot down.

Woops!
Well, I aint gonna lie...I don't know what the heck he did. That stell mill lingo has my ass lost as I don't know what.
But at least I'm honest! :)
steel
Awaiting- Dogma is right. I didn't make myself very clear did I.
The gist is, He had to drop a rope down a long way, to pull something up.
rut roh raggy!
Id employ anyone called Boomer.
Hes got the the guts man... go boomer go boomer... shumon you know it
Oh bollocks !!!!! I have to reply
Well all you fokes out there.I work with Boomer. If you tell him to put his hand into a fire he'll do it. yes he's not the sharpest tool in the box, But you know the tool your getting.
I think Boomer should be a bouncer.
Or a Bartender. Or a DJ.
(does he have text messaging?)
Oh man, you all must have just looked on in shock.
Now is it just me, or are all your colleauges nice but a bit dim?
Lippy
I have to be anonymous now, it's really dull
Awww bless , did you make him go up again ?
Just wanted to let you know that I am back from my hols and blogging again. I have changed my layout, so hopefully it will be nicer to visit now. Let me know xxxx
I used to hang out with a transexual named Boomer.
Wonder if it's the same guy/girl.
CP.
Phlegmfatal- Yes a Scooby moment.
Frobisher- He got the name because it was noticed that machines Boomer was involved with tended to go BOOM!
Mushroom- shumon?
Ed- It's a good job he has your guidence.
~d- Yes.
Snooze- I do believe some of the managers in attendance lost their composure.
Lippy- Most are quite bright but relaying their stories would probably get someone sacked.
Beast- I'd have to ask Ed.
Turboslut- Nice to have you back again. Your new blog rocks.
CP- I don't think so. He's been known to hang out at some dodgy places on the web. I'm not sure if he dresses up for the occasion.
Thanks Tick. It feels like home now.
no one said boomer was the sharpest knife in the drawer tickers!
Poor Boomer. I bet he realized his mistake as soon as he let go.
Kyahgirl- Quite right.
I- Knowing Boomer he would have had no idea why he was sent to the top with a reel of stop webbing. I bet he didn't realise his mistake until he recieved strong abuse over the radio.
I'm unable to comment on your blog for some reason are your settings OK?
Lippy comments now have normal service resumed - yay!
Have you dissapeared to a far away planet like IDV?
Sign in as "other" instead of "blogger" when you try to leave a comment on my blog. I switched to the beta version and so far it sucks mightily. You can still fill in your Blogger user name when you sign in as "other" but then you have to type in your blog's URL.
Yeah, Tickers, what I_B said. Only, I'm back now!
Love, IDV x
