If You Have A Fail Moment, At Least Go All Out...

Well, I just had one of those epic fail moments at work. About a week ago, I was testing out the pie press machine to see if it works...and what do you know, collossally stupid me forgot to unplug the machine, and worse, left the heating element on full the entire day :|. I mean, from the time I punched out to the next day I punched it the damn thing was on :o. Hell, it didn't even dawn on me until one of the managers pointed out the machine was smoking :lol:. Let's just say I've been called "idiot," "stupid," "moron," and other pretty vulgar names which I've humbly accepted. Although when the repair man came, it's pretty relieving to know that it wasn't "that bad." Meaning, I didn't completely destroy the machine, I merely burned out the element, and the smoking was due to the plastic coating melting off and some of it got inside the hole. So I didn't feel like a complete jerk.

Although this means until the heating element comes in, we're kicking it old school style and using the rolling pin for the dough :cry:. Which it should've came in today, but the guy in charge of selling us the parts...gave us the wrong one :|. Point is, if I'm going to have one of my infamous stupid ass moments again, I don't think it will top nearly burning down the resturant :lol:. Which the only reason I haven't got fired yet is because I'm pretty much "family" with the crew. Oh, I wouldn't exactly learn something without a punishment...which would be the rolling pin part, making the dough as well as kneading it and forming it in the pie tins...all done by yours truly 8).
