Something occured the otherday that reminded me of this story, hope you don't mind me rambling. Working at the implement in the mid 70's our parts manager came into the shop ripping me a new one because he was missing a variable speed drive belt for combines. He assumed we used it in the shop and did not charge it out. I bet someone sold it and never marked it down. Anyway he was doing the annual parts return and had a authorization tag permitting him to return it to CASE because it was a slow moving part. POed because he could not find that expensive belt was afraid the boss would be upset at him. While he was pacing around I notice A used bicycle tire laying under the work bench. I grabbed it and said here put the damn tag on this and send it in with the returns. He scolded me and said he won't do that because CASE would then have reason to refuse the entire return. I told him first of all the person sorting through the return may not have the foggiest idea what that part is suppose to look like, and second if they did know what it was they would get a good laugh and just refuse that part which we did'nt have anyway. Well to make a long story short, we never heard a word back from CASE. They issued full credit for that part. TRUE STORY. I have often wondered if someone kepted that tire tagged a hanging on a wall as a trophy of the dumb stuff people returned. Rod.
