Visited **** *. ****** today with C.O. (Salesperson for that account). manufacturer of machine, contrary to spec, made fixtures with non standard components requiring custom fabrication of each replacement item. Customer less than pleased. All the hydraulic seals in the system are incompatible with the hydraulic fluid in use and are failing at an alarming rate. Three entire new machines have had to be dismantled and custom sized lathe turned O rings have had to be made to accommodate the immiscible fluids. The process is tedious and difficult, the VITON is immersed in liquid nitrogen and clamped in a lathe and the O rings are turned from solids while the material is rigid. Only two orings can be made at a time before the material warms up enough to be impossible to cut.

K. S. still works here (An old girlfriend) and is the operator on one of the actual machines. When she knows nobody else can see she lifts her shirt and exposes her breasts. She is a malformed creature, having nipples which, when erect, are an inch and three eighths long. Currently she has them pulled through one of the unused, wrong material O rings which have been discarded. I expect she intends to use this action to embarrass me or arouse me, but I remember why we broke up, and though looking at breasts is nice, I prefer to do so when I can do more than look. C.O. is oblivious to this other than the evidence of a growing bulge in my jeans. She believes it is because of her presence and does her best to make me feel as if it is OK, and I haven’t the heart to tell her that I am no more interested in her than the leather seats in her car.

German representative of the machine tool builder arrives mid afternoon and catches K.S. baring her breasts at me, and asks if this is a uniquely American custom. I assure him that it is not.
