I started working for a [nameless] company as a favour for a friend. I never should have!

I was working on a piece of equiptment which i know inside out. I have intimate knowledge of the how/why these things fail & the correct repair proceedures.

I started work at 7pm..... by 8pm i had realised that there were 3 forman in charge, all running the same job! Each one had their own methods of repair..... only 1 of them had a real clue.
At first it was amusing. As i started the repairs using forman #1s direction, foreman #2 would come along & contradict him. Then forman #3 would do the same.
Amusement soon turned to annoyance.

At 10pm, i simply threw my toolbox into the boot of my car, went back inside, & informed foreman #1 that i was unable to serve 3 masters with confliction opinions..... & left.

No fanfare..... no issues..... didn't even care about my wages. Chalk it down to experience.
