This story is from I DO work here lady. I was the boss's son. I had an entitled employee in my

crew that made a mistake. A little background. My father owned a telecommunications repair

He's got the antenna about 150 feet up at this point. Me. Hey D bag, I think you've got your

fasteners on backwards. The fasteners have to be perfect because the higher the antenna gets,

the more wind, the more tension on the winch. D bag. They are fine. Me. No, they're definitely

backwards. D bag. They're F and fine. Go away little boot lika. I guess that was his
