The funny thing is, I have the same problem as Chuck, almost every single day! Not that I have to push planes around or add break fluid, but there are many parts of my job that I don’t enjoy. Well, I guess no job is perfect, and don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love my job! But I wish I could spend more time actually drawing comics than spending it on all the organizational stuff, sales, accounting etc. which ends up taking up more than half of my time.
But I’m only slightly complaining here and on a very high level, obviously. It’s the same in every job, and especially in aviation, where people only see the “freedom of flying like a bird” but not all the hard work, preparations, rules and regulation it takes to get to that point.
Guess Julio is not seeing things clearly… Allowing Chuck to perform maintenance of the airplane?!?!? Even if it’s just adding some break fluid and air to the tires…. Not on my watch!
HAH! Is it just a Freudian slip that Chuck plans to put in “break” fluid?
Think Julio! Chuck working on the plane. Or anything that has more moving parts then a block of wood.
Break Fluid… yep, that’s about right for Chuck.
Yeah… thanks guys! Just fixed it. “Brake” and “break”… I make that misteak all the time!!
Guys, I had better say and girls, or all the mares in the yard will give me an ear full – you know what I mean. If the Cessna could talk, how many stories could it also tell, for instance tonight my human daddy first started to put on the wrong rug. Then when he found the right one and instead of putting it on nose to tail – something aeroplanes have in common with us horses, he turned it through ninety degrees. I tell you sometimes I think he’s related to Chuck. Mind you daddy does bribe me with carrots, possible something Chuck should try on Julio so that he will do these little chores that keep aircraft flying.
With Chuck’s luck, he’ll put the fluid in the tires and air into the brakes.
Push a plane and tend to tires…
Yiddish expression: Kunen kenstu, vilen vilst nisht: Yes you are able to, you just don’t want to.
This phrase was first said in the later 1700′s in Russia by a guy who was refused help to push his buggy out of the mud. This was a true story and since then the expression was born
