Smile Want to laugh read this..

I got this in an email this morning, it's pretty funny and wouldn't want to be in his shoes.
I know it's slightly long but read it anyway.

If you don't laugh out loud after you read this you
are in a coma! This
is even funnier when you realize it's real! Next time
you have a bad day
at work ... think of this guy, Rob is a commercial
saturation diver for
Global Divers in Louisiana. He performs underwater
repairs on offshore
drilling rigs.

Below is an E-mail he sent to his sister. She then
sent
it to radio station 103.2 on FM dial in Ft. Wayne,
Indiana, who was
sponsoring a worst job experience contest. Needless to
say, she won.


Hi Sue, Just another note from your bottom-dwelling
brother.

Last week I had a bad day at the office. I know you've
been feeling down
lately at work, so I thought I would share my dilemma
with you to make
you realize it's not so bad after all.

Before I can tell you what happened to me, I first
must bore you with a few technicalities of my job.

As you know, my office lies at the bottom of the sea.
I wear a suit
to the office. It's a wetsuit. This time of year the
water is quite
cool. So what we do to keep warm is this: We have a
diesel powered
industrial water heater.

This $20,000 piece of equipment sucks the water out of
the sea. It heats it to a delightful temperature. It
then pumps it down to the diver through a garden hose,
which is taped to the air hose.

Now this sounds like! a darn good plan, and I've used
it several
times with no complaints.. What I do, when I get to
the bottom and start
working, is take the hose and stuff it down the back
of my wetsuit. This
floods my whole suit with warm water. It's like
working in a Jacuzzi.

Everything was going well until all of a sudden, my
butt started to
itch. So, of course, I scratched it.

This only made things worse.

Within a few seconds my butt started to burn I pulled
the hose out from my
back, but the damage was done. In agony I realized
what had happened.
The hot water machine had sucked up a jel! lyfish and
pumped it into my
suit. Now, since I don't have any hair on my back, the
jellyfish
couldn't stick to it.

However, the crack of my butt was not as
fortunate.

When I scratched what I thought was an itch, I was
actually
grinding the jellyfish into the crack of my butt

I informed the dive
supervisor of my dilemma over the communicator. His
instructions were
unclear due to the fact that he, a! long with five
other divers, were all
laughing hysterically

Needless to say I aborted the dive.

I was instructed to make three agonizing in-water
decompression stops totaling
thirty-five minutes before I could reach the surface
to begin my chamber
dry decompression.

When I arrived at the surface, I was wearing nothing
but my brass helmet.

As I climbed out of the water, the medic, with
tears of laughter running down his face, handed me a
tube of cream and
told me to rub it on my butt as soon as I got in the
chamber. The cream
put the fire out, but I couldn't poop for two days
because my butt was
swollen shut.

So, next time you're having a bad day at work, think
about how much
worse it would be if you had a jellyfish shoved up
your butt.
Now repeat to yourself,

"I love my job, I love my job, I love my job."

Now whenever you have a bad day, ask yourself,
Is this a jellyfish bad day?
May you NEVER have a jellyfish bad day!!!!!

hahahaha that is awesome!


basically, the pump pumps water to a heater...it gets heated...and is pumped through a water hose that the diver controls...he choses to put it in his pants so the warm water fills his wet suite and keeps him warm!
