Today in the shop my boss handed me this busted padlock. The locking bar was worn out so I had to sculpt a new one from a larger piece of brass, form a spring from some spare wire I found, then make a key for it. Five hours later, I had a working padlock, and a solid understanding of how it functions.

I sort of envy you. Here even though I'm still learning a lot, a lot of what I have to do has to be done quickly. Not so much with the new company but we still have a lot of customers who need things done quickly.

You basically get told to go play and figure it out. No way I'd spend 5 hours on a padlock here. Keep us posted with this kind of stuff, it's very interesting to me, and well done by the way.

You should look for a job at a cerajeria in coyoacan and get out of tepito. Its always better to work for the middle class than the incredibly poor.
