Aff, I am never unmindful of the work the Technician Caste does to keep my mech functional (though I also attempt to not require their efforts as much as possible). I do, however, become slightly irritated when there are so many several are needed to replace one illumination unit. I become even moreso when I keep coming into the dropbay and find one sitting in my cockpit asking when he/she will be granted a second chance to test out because 'I did not study enough the first time'.

I will tell you my own version of a popular joke told in the Inner Sphere:

"How many Clanners does it take to change a broken lightbulb? Seven: A scientist to discover why it stopped working, a merchant to request a new one, another one to ship it, a laborer to actually screw it , a technician to switch it on and two warriors to fight to take credit for the job".

My techs would absolutely adore you. I routinely give them barely functional mechs to put back together. If my mech is not a shambling mess of barely functional parts held together with duct tape, good wishes, and myomer strands then clearly I was not fighting hard enough.

We should learn from the Inner Sphere.. Have you tried ComStar prayers?

As i hinted i just took it from someone who told it in the good old BT jokes thread and changed it because i did not remember it. But thank you anyway Ah that thread..The best jokes were those which could be understood only by a few passionated BTreaders. I shall write again some of the best jokes, quiaff?
