Hey DeadSkunk, our second plant at our facility did butt squishy stuff too. That is where I would go to hide from my boss

Nah, my avatar is drawn so angry because I tried to make it look like The_Jed's old avatar only with a wife beater. In reality I smile a lot more than my avatar would suggest even if I don't get to make seats for a living.
