Amazon engineer ad

[Melvyn Best]

Anyone else spotted the mistake in the Amazon engineer ad, where the “engineer” is using a spanner to tighten a nut? She appears to be using a ratchet spanner but is taking it off to reposition rather than use it as a ratchet?

 

[mtt.tr]

Haha this is brilliant I saw this few weeks ago, put me of applying

 

[Wozzaaah]

I spotted that too. My guess is that for filming purposes she was instructed to use it like that so it turns against the ratchet rather than attempts to tighten the nut which looks already done up.

Anyone got a link please? I don’t have a tv

 

[Bladevane]

You're not missing much.

The ou mech eng. jobs possibility bit annoyed me, most where just project managers.

Met a few engineering managers couldn't engineer a **** up in a pub.

Similar lad I knew won an arb award good lad but not much of a climber, can't see how you can be half an arb and get the award

I don't own a telly either, too much rubbish I'd rather live my life than watch someone else pretending to live theirs! I did see an Amazon ad on the web for mechatronics, that was a new one on me! Perhaps I'm just getting old and cynical!

I do own a TV - a very nice LG OLED - I think I have watched it 6 times. My brother watches a bit more - but only on a Friday and Saturday night. And only films or shows he has downloaded.
My attention span for TV is appalling - I can never watch a whole film.

Ive never read a story much to my Shame.

Only factual stuff

 

[sparkysy]

I just realized that I do own a tv!
Unfortunately not an ariel though!
it's displaying the Cctv cameras which is far more interesting than tv especially when the calfs escape and run a muck round the place!
Never really been into telly, my mum and dad were always doing something creative so never really bothered with it! Can watch some films but I have to be into it or I will get board quickly. I do like a good read, just borrowed a book off my sister about fungi and that's got me, couldn't put it down the other night!

Haha long time ago.

Don't grow long hair for no reason

There's one that does the rounds now and again of a pretty oriental woman soldering.

She is holding the iron low down (hot end) like you would a pencil and (evidently) pretending to solder with it.

 

[sparkysy]

Yeah I like factual books, I seem to spend a lot of time reading the wiring regs and associated appendices more than anything else recently!

I refer to mine all the time, I don't trust my memory.

Wish others followed pursuit keeping see the same **** over and over


Tell a lie, current place it's all machine specific we don't deal with the supply which suits me as loads of jobs I'd be rewiring

Thats exactly what I do, fell asleep many times at the cinema.

Do own a tv but only really watch youtube, worryingly it seems to be mainly farming stuff I watch.
