What he said about the two methods of castration are true. The farmer using his teeth is a little morbid if you ask me. You have a knife use it!!! The only time I have seen teeth on testicles is after they are fried. They make the tenderest hamburgers.

I thought he was quite poignant about the lack of "work" being done.

that was pretty good...I imagine it was the hit of that conference
I love the was he combines his education with the job
Anagnorisis and peripetia with the realization of life.
I'm a pretty good mindless drone for things that have to be done...but i still wouldn't use my teeth like that if I didn't have to... If I had to, I'm sure it would become second nature

I was in the sheetmetal trade for around 15 years on the union side. Good money but tons of layoffs and it got worse and worse the whole time I was in it. Nowadays you better be in herculean shape and expert ass kisser as well. If you're not a foreman by my age, in which case I was but the company closed, you can plan on not a very long retirement. The flipside is working with all the cocaine snorting non-union guys. Most of these guys on both sides are all mega back stabbers like any other job. I wouldn't recommend the bs to anyone esp union because they are dwindling big time. Of course I don't really recommend anything in the US other than doing your own thing which is impossible for most I know. Out of about 10 guys I know that went into the trade in '95 only 2 are still doing it and they could both suck the chrome off a trailer hitch. The idea that unions create better quality is a myth nowadays and that is proven by the fact by the amount of productivity they are forced to create without getting laid off. You won't see many union sheetmetal workers casual walking upstairs on a jobsite.........they'll be running. Literally. There's no way to justify $40hr in this economy so you'll be doing 2 $20hr jobs and truthfully the way things are going that's even too much to be supported. What you learn is awesome because I can do anything I want basically but the job itself is a freaking joke and don't expect to ever get any respect so if you have sensitive feelings it's not a good trade in reality you are just at the top of the rat class.
