Weldor's Agility Test

[Hotfoot]

Any of you about to test, or those going in for re-certification should be aware of the new "Agility Criteria" brought about after an analysis of back and leg problems experienced by field and production weldors. Just to give you ahead start, you can practice this at home, right there in front of your computer.

Start moving your right foot in a clockwise circle, lightly off the floor. Now, with your left hand, draw an imaginary numeral "6" in the air. Report back to the forum if you experience any problems doing this.

Thanks a lot!!! I tried that for a few minutes and then figured I needed another beer. I have now fallen and cant get up......I'm trying to dial 116 but get no response...

[Some Creep]

HA!!!

How many of you guys are sitting there trying to do this....?

C'mon, fess up! Me too.......





*next test Foot?* LOL!

[Hotfoot]

I kept trying it, then figured if you started at the point where the bottom loop of the six touches the stem, then your motion would be clockwise, as well, and then you can do it. Should be good for some beers, eh?

Oh...and I made up the part about it being on any test...

Hey Hotfoot, It works. I can now add this to my ability to rubbing my belly with one hand while patting my head with the other. lol
And it has only taken my 7 beers to learn it.

I had no problem with it at all! But then, I have been practicing stuff like this for years, just incase I ever see the blue lights in the rearview after a night at the bar. I can even say the alphabet....backwards!

[tailshaft56]

No problem. I have not and probably never will cert so I just won't worry about it. Besides that I'm out of beer and beer money. LOL

I wonder, what inspired the first guy to ever try this, to try this. I mean, in all my life, it's never popped into my mind to make circles with my feet and try writing the numeral 6 in the air at the same time. ???????

[Hotfoot]

I imagine its a normal growth from the guy driving , holding a round steering wheel in one hand, while displaying the #1 with the other hand...

[J Hall]

That was too easy. But then again, Iam amphibious so I can do stuff with both hands.

[Rocky D]

I tried it last night while sitting in front of my puter.
Wife walks in, then turns to the closset and grabs a suit case.

I almost had to get HOTFOOTS phone number so she could call to prove that it was part of a test!
