ABS White

i’ve been working on our collateral at work and needed some stock photos of parts made out of the various materials. PC, PC-ABS, and ABS White are some of the materials we use to create parts, so i was searching for these keywords in google images and istockphoto.

something you should know is that my monitor faces two doors that go to the back of the shop. people randomly come out at anytime and can see everything that i’m doing on my 30+ inch monitor.

so i’m searching to no avail and i try for the term “ABS white.” wouldn’t you know it, as i’m searching, out from the back comes David (the owner) and Antoine (a shop guy) and about 50 pictures of ripped guys in white briefs show up on my monitor. apparently that what happens when you search for “abs” in istockphoto. oops.

big jack

today a potential client came into our office, and he was the largest man i have ever seen. approximately 6’8” and a girth to match, he was wearing a bright yellow sweatshirt that said on the front in giant black letters, “big jack.”

“you must be big jack.” i said. “that’s me,” he replied. “you know, my whole life people come up to me saying, ‘you’re a big motherf*****’, how tall are you? so finally i just started letting people know right away. i’m big jack!” stifling my laughter, i walked to the back to inform the sales rep his appointment had arrived. the guys in the shop and i had a good laugh about the whole thing.

a little while later as he was leaving, i caught a glimpse of the back of his sweatshirt. there, above an icon of Jesus Christ, was the phrase, “If you don’t know Jesus, then you don’t know Jack….!”

thanks, big jack, for making my day.
