Funny SouthTexas mentioned that. We have a guy in our hall, he just got his ticket. Last year he placed 3rd in Canada at the Millwright Apprenticeship Competition. He's pretty damn good. But really...third isn't verymuch to brag about. Anyways hes a Hollywood Millwright now. Says he only works jobs were they "Need a Rotatory Alignment Specialist" he thinks he's something. They had him on a Ball Mill overhaul and there was about 500, 1 1/2" bolts that had to be hy-torqued. He told the foreman "oh no, I don't hy-torq". "I'm an alignment and layout guy" in a real snotty kinda way.

The foreman said "well we dont need an alignment guy....we need a [bleep] hy-torq guy...so I guess that means your laid off. Drag your tools up, see ya later."
