I accidentally tore a customer's oil-pan in half. o.o
...
let me repeat that.
I TORE a customer's OIL-PAN (which was made of cast iron) In HALF. o.0
ok so here's the story. i was going to drain the guy's oil and i fixed the ratchet onto the drain plug, but it was stuck. so i grabbed a wrench, threw it on the end and used it for extra leverage. i pushed a bit and suddenly the whole thing jerks to the left, and i end up holding a section of about 6-8 square inches of metal containing the drain-plug. apparently the guy had had it break before and used some JB-Weld to put it back together. then along comes Kardane, and ker-snap! like 8 people asked me 'dude, how hard did you twist that thing?' apparently everyone is under the impression i'm actually an austrian strong-man. o.o
so that was my day XD

Hehe, silly people and their crappy repairs. If he'd hit a speedbump or something he'd suddenly have had no oil.
You day sounds better than my night shifts tho..
