1967 Camaro assembly line

[Too Many Projects]

When I first started working at the Ford plant, workers would put cans of soup and such just inside the paint bake ovens to warm for lunch. The seasoned workers knew where to put the cans so they didn't overheat....see where this is going ?? One day a car came down the final checkout line I was working that day and the entire side looked like it had projectile vomit on it. Yep, a newbie put a can of chili too close to the heat and it exploded. Word went around the plant very quickly that the practice was to be stopped immediately. As most things like that go, the workers started sneaking cans back in after a couple months.
