-
You take your dog for a walk and, while you both
use the same tree, you have thoughts about
your engineer.
-
You think fast food is hitting a deer at 65 mph
and donating the remains to your engineer in lieu of pay.
-
Your boat has not left the driveway in 15 years
other than when you loan it to your engineer because you know he'll repair
the engine and wax the hull in order to catch enough fish to survive since
your checks won't clear the bank.
-
You come back from the dump with more than you
took and immediately set about "upgrading"
your studio and transmitter with the "new" gear.
Maybe that really IS "plumbing" in that FM transmitter after all!
-
You think a subdivision is part of a math
problem and this PROVES that your engineer
does NOT have to pay rent and utilities!
-
You know how many tons
of equipment your engineer's
car will hold from the building of the new
transmitter site just last year.
-
You never have
a problem keeping gas in your Mercedes Benz because your engineer has
a rag for a gas cap.
-
Your lifetime goal is to some
day pay your engineer enough so that he can visit a fireworks stand
at least once before his children grow up.
-
You give your
engineer shotgun shells as a bonus for spending Christmas eve rebuilding
your transmitter so he can sit on his
roof hoping to fill his deer
quota so his family will have meat for the
next year.
-
You give
a complete set of salad bowls to your
engineer's wife and and make sure they ALL
say Cool Whip and don't have mixed labels
on them.
-
You can
convince your engineer to use his
home workbench as a dining room
table so he can continue to service
your equipment while still spending "quality time" with his family.
-
A tornado hits a
neighborhood 15 miles from your transmitter
site and does $100,000 worth of improvement
to your bank account.
-
You feel
obligated to give your engineer a pair of movie passes as a bonus for being
able to get the $100,000 worth of improvement to your bank account by
convincing the insurance company that the tornado actually DID damage your
transmitter site from 15 miles away.
-
You gave your
engineer enough gas money to pay for his trip to your transmitter when he missed his
child's graduation because you thought
you might have had a small problem
that turned out to be the imagination of your PD.
-
You can only call your engineer
from the 1st of the month to the 20th because that's when he can pay his
phone bill.
-
Your engineer's
wife limits you to only 75 calls
per day.
-
You only get
accused of lying when these three things happen: your lips move, there's a
payment due your engineer or an insurance adjuster is present.
