when i was just starting as a mechanic’s assistant i spent a saturday with just me & the boss. i was getting ready to change a fuel filter on a porsche 944, car in the air, looking for some safety glasses, when the old ex-con, ex-cokefiend boss man comes over: “I ain’t no fuckin pussy! Gimme some fuckin rags. I don’ need no fuckin safety goggles. shit.”
he ties a rag on each of his elbows (
) get’s under the car, looks up & starts adjusting his 
bi-focals. 
(he hadn’t been spinning 
s for over 10 years).
dummy didn’t relieve the fuel pressure & gave himself a nice shower of gasoline, with an older-type drop light(incanescent bulb 
) positioned pretty close to the work. Fully soaked his eyes.
