July 31, 201213 yr The sign in Spanish is 'tong in cheek,' as if we don't get enough smoke blowing around in the shop!
July 31, 201213 yr Frank, the last sign in, er, germaneeze/dutcheeze made me laugh out loud and I needed a good laugh. Thanks! Mark <>< Das ist von gooden sinen!
July 31, 201213 yr Those are great Frank. The last one is a little on the rude side tho. You could have shown a little courtesy with a " Donkeyshane" at the end there (;
July 31, 201213 yr Author The Germanese sign reminds me of the old Katzenjammer Kids cartoon. Some of the characters spoke in that manner.
July 31, 201213 yr Having worked with some old school Germans I have to say that that sign is a bit on the *mild* side! I realized how far we had corrupted a German colleague when he actually admitted that my wife's opinion was right and his was wrong!
August 1, 201213 yr I work for a German machine company and have been working with one of their techs for a week and I haven't killed him..... yet, I did actually get an apology out of him the other day when he was trying to get a broken grease fitting out and didn't have the tool for it due to its location. I offered mine and he started to explain how it wouldn't work, I tossed it back in the box and said okay and walked back over to what I was doing and left him to simmer. A half hour later he came over and apologized and asked if I would show him how to do it with my tool. I XXXXXXXX near passed out.
