The Camaraderie of Men

This past Friday I was operating a crane and my foreman comes on the radio to inform me that when the particular cargo ship I’m unloading is unloaded he wants me to come down and do some “receiving work” - moor incoming ships.  I replied “Roger” and he replied “Well, don’t sound so fuckin’ thrilled about it, sweetheart.  And don’t think that just because you’re cute I won’t kick your gloomy ass.”
