2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

You don't have to be in uniform to do that. Us grey-haired old sods have been saying what we think for years.*

However, I try to use a little diplomacy on this forum. :P

*PS. Young people (teenagers) tend to do it too.

I'm a great fan of diplomacy Doug, I've enjoyed watching some truly memorable moments of diplomacy over the years!
My favourite British pre-War joke, Mr Chamberlin, was a fan of it ::) ;D ;D ;D
You've gotta laugh or you'd go mad! That is why I love my job so much, a really great bunch of guys and everyone has a manic sense of humour like mine. Biggest danger at work is dying laughing 8-) 8-) 8-)

diplomacy

Bad choice of words on my part. Perhaps tact would have been better. My point was that you don't need to be an ex-serviceman or ex-cop to say what you think. :P

I've heard of this concept called tact. Err why? At least if you're brutally honest people know where they stand... probably why most of my friends are as weird as me ;D ;D ;D
