You don't understand. Living through a Government audit makes that personal testing job sound squeaky clean.

Did you ever laugh at the phrase "Hi I'm from the Government. I'm here to help you."? The reason it's funny is that it's so true.

Curious - Do our friends in other nations have the same or similar saying?

Anyway, you should know that there is almost no difference between that job at the Q-tip factory and servicing an auditor except that I'd rather test thermometers!

But I do exaggerate. They were very friendly and outgoing and personable. They were very taken with our little office and our friendly open methods of doing business. They said lots of nice things about us and went away content they had done a good job.
