Trencher Fail Analysis

[nasis]

Of course, they're not professionals. The lack of safety sandals gave it away.

[timfischer]

The fact that the equipment looks spotlessly clean with the treads armor-all'd lends credibility to the "sales demo"

[dpall]

To paraphrase Monty Python, “How do you know he is a salesman?” “He hasn’t got shit all over him.”

[Paulkaai]

I have had that exact service call. They said the pins didn’t work. They were wrong. The pins worked perfectly

[tomrogers]

As a former mechanic for a heavy equipment dealer I can assure you that salesmen always think they know much more about the equipment than we lowly mechanics do! And prove themselves wrong at every opportunity. 💥💥🔥🔥There ya go!

[ROB-o-saur]

Salesman! Keeping our favorite fail analysis content creator gainfully employed for decades.

"Then I get the service call because it broke" that statement triggered my PTSD... F&%#@ Sales guys. Every time.

[fishboy]

We have a salesman who’s been working for the company for over 17 years and is still clueless about anything to do with manual labour. Those shoes tell me instantly that the person wearing them would sell their own grandmother.

[mikepierce]

It's the shoes Those darn shoes gave the stupidity of authority away !!!!

[oxyfee]

We had huge stickers on Timberjack Saw Heads telling people to stand back over a hundred feet if blades were spinning. Most people thought that was a recommendation, people’s curiosity has gotten them killed.

These people have kept me in business for oner 30+ years! Keep up the good work!👍

I don't know what you're talking about. Whenever I try to use a chainsaw, I always plunge it into the wood tip first. That clearly makes more sense than cutting along the length of the bar. As a sidenote, can anyone help me reattach a few fingers and a leg?

[kylinsky]

Some people just have a 'grab a shovel' kind of intellect. We need to keep them away from the machinery.

Mr. Yellow Shoes is about to become Toes McGillicuddy

[ickess]

I was waiting for the part of the video where the hydraulic lines snapped and shot fluid all over that pretty grass. I could even hear the Hank Hill scream in my head.

[frankm.]

That guy missed out on a massive lawsuit by not just sticking a toe out haha

[comfortablynumb]

It could be worse. I knew a guy who had the muscle and skin ripped off the back of his leg from the knee down to the ankle in a long triangle shaped piece by a machine like that. I think it was a Ditch Witch, but same idea. It broke bones and made a mess, he'll never walk right again and he was like 19. So yeah, don't FA with those machines. You'll FO.

"Salesman Shoes"

That's hysterical. And so very true.

[alexforce]

As someone who wears similar type of shoes - you dont want me to show you how such machine works, you want the guy with working boots and dirty t-shirt. You know - like the guy who is gonna use the damn thing.

[flame_half]

I've seen dudes drop buckets off of loaders because they forgot to put the pins in. Pucker factor of 10 hearing that thing hit the ground.
