They had a old crane / drag line with a magnet attached that they used for loading scrap metal. The motor had issues and the clutch went bad and the mechanic was told to pull the motor.
After he pulled the motor, they saw that the engine, transmission bull gears etc had leaked a lot of grease and oil over the years.
The owner instructed me to take the steam jenny and clean it all out.
After I was done, I had most of the grease on me and my clothes.
I needed to get home from work because it was a Friday and my week to have my daughter. I had a fairly new automobile and no way to protect the interior, so I did what I had to do. I took off my pants and my shirt and I drove in my underwear.

If this makes me a pervert - then so be it. But not everyone in this world has a clean job where they work 9 - 5 in a office wearing a suit and tie.

Had I known that I was going to be assigned that job that day, I would have taken a spare set of clothes and a rain suit to work with me that day.
