This one left me shaking my head the other morning...
I run a small (even smaller now with the times) design/build company that does a good level of commercial and occasionally high end residential. The other morning the work phone rings and I pick it up, saying hello followed by the name of my company. First thing I hear on the other end is: "Are ya hirin"?". Said fast enough I wasn"t sure what he said. "I"m sorry sir, could you repeat that" was my response. "Are YA HIRIN"?" (There was no hello, may I speak with, or my name is...) "I"m sorry sir, but we are not hiring at this time" I replied. "Well is this? (and then bungles the company name, which consists of 3 letters)" "No it"s not, you have called a design build firm sir (gave him the correct company name)" "Yeah! Are ya hirin anybody?" "Thank you and have a good day sir..." as I hung up.
I deal with a lot of different types of people, but the complete lack of thought/protocol/whatever blew me away that morning. Found it kind of funny. I know theres" a lot of good people out there out of work, and then there"s some that are out of work for a reason. But just can"t imagine what goes through his mind.... let alone what the interview may have been like!

When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
