So i'm a mechanic for an oilfield service company (pressure pumping) and when i first started working here i was up on the radiator of one of our units. we were changing something out and i guess i was laying up on it and one of the contractors walked by and not knowing me real well made a comment on how i was acting like his wife in the garage. so i asked what he meant and he said like when i'm working and i say hey sugar hold this for me, and it just stuck.

By the way the 16 is just because its my "favorite" number

Hahaha Thanks for sharing. A few year back I lived over in the Las Colinas area of Irving. I know right where you're at. I miss DFW somethin fierce.
You got some pretty good initial advice. Do a little reading and you'll be good to go. After you've searched and read, post up the questions and you'll generally get some solid thoughts... or ridicule and direction to the appropriate thread. Hope you enjoy the time here. We'd all like to see a build thread when you get a minute. The more info we have from everyone the better off we all are.
