Lets be honest here,

Any aircraft that you are working on at 2 o'clock in the morning in the freezing cold and the rain driving at you with that trickle that drops down your collar,right down your spine and makes you feel totally ticked off has got to be the worst.

It really doesnt matter who makes it at that time or what the job entails I can say from experiance you will not want to be there doing it and wont relish the fact this is what we all do for a living.

But it is and we do,at times it like trying to thread a needle,in the shower and blindfolded.Personally I think this should be a fundemental part of any apprenticship in this business as you can be sure it will happen to you when you are older.

To spice it up a bit when practising get someone to keep ringing you mobile phone or asking you when you will be finished (Whilst drinking a coffee in front of you).If you can cope with this you will make an admirable engineer and there are lots of lads out there that do this every day/night of the week.Keep it up lads
