A true story that happened about 10 years ago: I was working at a brick factory and I worked in the maintenance and mechanic shop with about 10 other guys. We had several brand new CAT scrapers and we needed a factory Cat mechanic out to do some warranty work on them. We also had a working Cat dozer that was probably about 50 years old sitting fairly close to them. While the factory mechanic was there, we needed to use the old dozer to do some pushing work. A co-worker went to start the old dozer and there was an awful screech coming from the radiator area. You guessed it, a stray cat had gotten caught in the fan belt and had died instantly. The factory Cat mechanic was about 50 yards away and the co-worker went over to him and said "We have a problem with our cat" and he pointed to the old dozer. The mechanic literally puffed out his chest thinking that he was important enough to be called over to fix a dozer that was over twice his age. When he walked over to the dozer, my co-worker pointed to the fan belt that had the bloody cat stuck in it. There was some funny noises coming from the throat of the mechanic as he worked hard not to lose his cookies. He was successful, but you could tell it shook him up pretty bad. As there were about 10 guys suddenly rolling on the ground laughing at him, all he could do was mutter: "You f**kers are sick!" and he stumbled back over to his scraper that he was working on and continued his repair.
