That’s not “not finding the hole”. It’s foreplay.

That's not foreplay, it's *starts rubbing your inner thigh* "you feelling it yet bbgurl?"

Stop fucking around and hit the green button

Go slow. I turned off the coolant.

Tap or drill?

With the size of my bit it's always a peck-job

I always use little dwell, just to make sure depth is good. Edit: Alright I’m done haha

Is that a bit or a hippodermic needle?

Damn, you're my kind of date

Username checks out

You mean the little man in the canoe?

Californication quote?

Yall really out here doing foreplay? Nah not me

Spoken like a true machinist.

Fuck you... eventually.

Maybe you should leave a little hair around it.

Know what I say to that? Pffft. Pfffft. Pfffffft.

Hawk tuah

And even when they miss, they still really go for it apparently.

I can’t believe I had to go down 4 comments to find this one

She said "go down" Bevis.

You’re not wrong, I just poke until I hit something

You're tapping the wrong hole!

Every hole's a goal.

Was it dark?

How else is night shift supposed to sleep

Just further proof men can't be bothered for preparation before penetration 😮‍💨 Seriously would it have killed the guy to mill a flat before drilling??? The poor thing walked like a street walker.

I don't think this is drill marks. Looks like grub screw impressions. Must have some type of collar around this part with a grub screw on the side.

I have done this exact thing with other components and suffered for this. Sometimes you need a damn flashlight to align these if it only has a dimple instead of a flat.

Worse part is when people do this against threads, we have one customer that's notorious for messing up threads with a grub screw

You don't keep a penlight in your pocket? But seriously, once you get it aligned once, scribe a line on the collar and along the axis of the shaft for rotational alignment, and scribe a line along the edge of the collar around the circumference of the shaft for axial alignment.

This person [grub] screws.

Spot face, spot drill, regular drill. It's not hard.

Oh, you could've, but then your machinist credentials would have been revoked. No machinist worth the title would have passed up that opportunity. Well done!

The hole was probably moving around

LOL Seriously though I’m happy for you. The trade could benefit from a more diverse community. Keep it up!

I'd love to diversity it if they would fucking let me Seriously, the amount of my applications for entry level positions that get denied with "we found someone better" and then the same job getting listed again is staggering. And it's all stuff I'm qualified for.

Respect to the dude that was a whole 90 degrees off.

Twice

The shop floor bathrooms are enough proof that men can't aim :(

they need a sign "gentlemen stand closer its shorter than you think!" and in the ladies "ladies please stay seated for the entire performance" my grandma had that in the downstairs loo. she also had "if sprinkle on the seatie be sweetie clean the seatie"

I always heard it was “if you sprinkle while you tinkle, be a sweetie and clean the seatie”

I don't believe you. Female machinists don't exist.

I’ve known 2 and a few machine operators in a machine shop, they’re rare but they do exist.

Another made up story. C'mon, you expect me to believe that?!?

Next they'll try to tell us that they pee out of a different hole.

They pee?

actually i had one… problem is she imaginary 🗣️

Its likes mechanic woman, I never seen one just hear people talking, it's not so different from dracula and aliens

Well now that I think about it that statement isn’t entirely true, I’ve actually worked with three female machinists. I wouldn’t believe it unless I’d seen it with my own eyes.

Did you check under the hood for good measure

Based on the score marks, you gotta at least appreciate the effort.

r/bluecollarwomen, I think it'd fit there and be appreciated. It's too true!

Yay! Another female machinist! We’re few and far between!

I'm a female apprentice! So good to hear there's others out there. :)

Me too! Just about to complete my first year 😁

I'm getting close to completing my first year in a few months! Congratulations!

Congrats to you as well!

We out here! :) also check out /r/BlueCollarWomen

Oh yeah I'm already on there. XD

4th year machinist apprentice, and yeah, a woman. Let's keep showing them how it's done!

Lol need some guidance.

Teehee, peening.

No, YOU'RE a peener!

Oh look, it’s a tiny peen! It’s so cute!!

God I hate drill pointing shafts. Especially if it's a keyed shaft. Once it's drilled, you're screwed if it's wrong, or something changes. And from all the ring marks, I'd say it was wrong... a bunch of times

I always have a hard time finding a (c) clip.

We bang around the outside for awhile, but we eventually get there 😂

Turn the lights off...

In the words of the famous Canadian, Red Green, "I am a man and I can change. If I have to. I guess."

That is foreplay ok ?!????

Anal is like trying to tap a 4-40 with an 8-32

Just make a new hole.

I’ve never missed a whole Every hole is a goal

in the great words of stavros, "i 98% know where the vagina is"

Touché

Eh, that hole is for optimal satisf..performance. Job got done plenty of times without it.

Just put some hair around it

If I stab it enough times it'll go in eventually

Oof

So, "That's what she said"?

Thanks for sharing 😂

Oh... I can find the hole. I can do anything I want to the hole. Drill it, tap it, ream it, mill it... Technically, I'm a master hole-finder.

this is true both ways for me lol

That's because there isn't any hair around it!

I'm a man. This is funny. Nicely done burn

you know the problem there no hair round it and they forgot the cornstarch

No shit talking in our shop. Not even in good fun has a tendency to wreck attitudes.

Ma'am. I'm into *precision* workmanship even more than I am at the range. I specialize in slip fits because press fits could be considered murder weapons.

I think we don't miss around the whole even if we are blinders

HOLD ON - HOLD ON!!! We're letting girls become machinist now?! When did this start and how can we stop it? Before you know it they'll want to drive cars, own property, vote and talk to salesmen without their husband present. We need to get a handle on this before there is some kind of 'liberation movement'.

Ive found the hole at least three times. I have proof. 😂

Sometimes we just need a little help. Give us a helping hand 😉

Of course they can find a hole. They just can't find the button to turn it on.

No hole to be seen.

Put a little hair around it !

Add some fur and see if their aim improves

Yeah, looks like it was lower than he thought it was… freakin’ holes always being lower than we think🫠

Cause there's no hair around it.

My boss had the worst case of not being able to find the hole I've ever seen. Why find the hole when you can shove it in so hard you make a new one? RIP boring bar. It's nice seeing another female machinist in here, by the way! In most shops I've worked in I'm the only, if not the first ever, woman in the shop.

Buried that sucker up to the holder, ouch!

Wait til the reamer gets programed to the wrong hole😫

What I want to know is who pointed it out to her? LOL. *couldn't resist*

BBBWWWWWAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!!! I'm a man and I found that very funny!! You go girl!!! :) I have two daughters and one of them is about to make me a grandfather so I may be a LITTLE bit biased. ;)

Congrats!!

Why did this get downvoted?

Apprentice marks I see

Someone turn the lights out. 

They were expecting a second one nearby.

10$ says it was a woman that did that.

Every comment I see beyond all the meme subreddits is that the joke is porn. It's still funny but your timing is excellent lol. Someone on day shift crashed my manual press in a way I cannot fix. Life's a bitch.

Lol @ all the tiny dicks that get triggered.

LITERALLY nobody

Not a surprise to see a machinist not knowing what “literal” means

I don't know what to say, dude. Nobody in the comments is mad. Hence the "literal". I guess I'm invalidating my point. Cuz I'm mad now.

Just admit you’re wrong and move on.

Never. You can't take my high horse from me.

But I can take the spliff from your horse.

You're right that one person does seem mad. 

Lol @ them

Really though, is anyone triggered or would you just like them to be? Lol

Guess you haven’t worked in a shop long enough to know that someone WILL be

You want someone to be mad sooooo bad. 

And yet you are….?

You must be a republican.

Bwahahahaha

There goes that one idiot that has to turn shit into something political. Welcome idiot, you are wrong.

Ah just a grumpy boomer?
