What to do with 26000ltrs of hydraulic oil
« on: February 18, 2010, 07:00:14 pm »

Well I have 26000ltrs of hydraulic oil I have to get rid of, some bright spark at work decided we needed to test some of the pipes at work with the oil. Now they decide we are going to use hot water, I was hoping I could offload the oil on to Formica in North Shields since they use so much of it all there hydraulic presses leak so much they decided to use heavier oil, not surprising when you look at the maintenance team that used to work there.

Could have a little competition "Who do you think could have worked at Formica"

Hints are
1. He's a sand dancer
2. Kranky very kranky
3. Some say he was Noah's apprentice shipbuilder.

Some say he was Noah's apprentice shipbuilder, and that he's a kranky sand dancer.

All we know is...he's called The Stig!

My grandad took me to see them at the Sunderland Empire when I was about five, along with the Folies Bergere (The live statues were a bit wasted on me then !) He believed in starting 'em young !

I thought it was only them big flat caps you wore that made you look a bit weird, now I'm not so sure. {:-{

By the way you haven't changed much.  :-))

Well Riggs my old mate, you will never learn will you!
 
FIRST RULE OFF MANAGEMENT
 
Have someone else to blame that's rule 1
 
rule 2 listen to the orders ,you were asked  to order oil for testing - that's what you did
 
but you ordered the wrong stuff it should have been soluble oil  O0 {-)- the stuff you can mix with water ,well you can always tell the engineers from the desk pen pushers last but not least the 61000 ton press at Formica will lose that much oil in one pressing cycle
