      I wore thin rubber gloves, but the shavings would cut them to shreds in no time. So I tried wearing thick rubber gloves, but they made it difficult to operate the calipers and micrometers. I should have just dealt with the difficulty and worked slower, but when you’re on piece work, and you’re young, you make stupid decisions… or at least I did.
