I hate stupid paperwork!

We are bidding on a simple oblique photography job. Pictures out the window to show the progress of a construction site. Easy stuff. The ultimate final customer is the federal government. That means stupid paperwork. The contractor we are dealing with wants our company car insurance, and a copy of our professional insurance. Professional insurance of a picture taken out the window? Gimme a break.

They want a copy of our fire safety program. Our fire safety program is complex and involved.

We yell "FIRE get the fck out" Let the fire department fight the fire. They want a list of protective equipment we will use when on their site. That one is easy, none we are never ever on their site.

That was somewhat funny. I had three people ask me what my retainer fee was. Most people dressed like slobs. Some of the women looked like street walkers

You guys underestimate me a tad.....The tach did not bounce so I changed the speed sensor and it bounced..the DME was replaced.
Speed sensor only? What about the ref sensor? If one's out, good chance the other is cactus too. The ref sensor tells the DME when it's at TDC.
