As we wree talking in the funny translations blog, Andy Germany called for a new thread called the hall of fame.
The idea is that you forward something that another person has said in a thread here on CR4 that you consider worthy of this hall of fame.
I propose certain catagories such as funny, seriously helpful, bestest best answerand of course dumb.
I would like to point out that this should not become a flaming or mudslinging contest, we like to keep it tidy here.
First one I would like to put forward is ducon, he stated the following:
Whenever undertaking erection of utility pipeline systems in a totally new factory with plants from different countries, we have about 2-3 foreign erectors and commissioning engineers coming from Germany, USA, England,Japan,Italy,Korea etc., each for their machines. At time it totals 14-20 of them and we are involved with all of them since everybody needs some part of steam,air,condensate,water,thermo oil etc., for their machine(s).
My boys (Welders, Fabricators, helpers) on speak urdu or punjabi and cannot speak a word english to communicate hence, I was required round-the-clock. I came up with a novel idea to make everyone in my team to speak english with anybody.
I told them to add "ing" after every urdu word and use hand expression and anybody will understand. Kha = eat. Kha-ing with hand expression is understood. Ja = go. Ja-ing with a walking away is understood. La= bring. La-ing, Kar = do. Kar-ing = doing.
With time these boys have expertised to an extend that it amazes me that they are in conversation with these erectors during breaks.
This resulted in me honouring him with a new word named after him duconing which means: <make anything understood by anybody anywhere at all times>
If you have something in this fashion we would like to see it here in our CR4 hall of fame.
If you don't like it blame Andy, it was his idea.
