I fondly remember those days of yesteryear when men were men, etc., etc., Roundies used to pour in the shop like water down the drain. Opening a roundie, or most any other ser was like opening presents on Christmas morning. One never exactly knew what would come out of the box (but had a darn good idea!). One never forgets their "first time". The first time live cockroaches, ants, centipede, millipeed, or 4-legged rodent comes bounding out. Heck, I could have started a bug collection with the dead ones I brushed/scooped/vacuumed out.

Then there was the time we were delivering repaired sets, and accidentally left the MUCH nicer set at the wrong house. Played hell getting that one back.

How about switching cathode wires on an unsuspecting associate, or sticking that small magnet under the mu-metal shield.

Why not expand this to include tales from the shop?
