   One saturday morning I found a half dozen bits over 1/2" for $2 each,   
   I tried to bargain with her but she said "No, they belong to my   
   boyfriend and he is very firm" her female friend made a puddle   
   laughing. Needless to say I gladly paid the full asking price!

   I became the engineering liaison to the production girls and was accepted   
   enough that they stopped watching their mouths around me and joked about the   
   Frito Lay Man and "A hard man is good to find."
