Old sayings……

Working construction for my dad in the 80's. One of his employees would always say  "close enough for the girls we go with." I can still hear him saying it with a chuckle.

My dad would send people to the truck for tools and he'd say "Quick like a bunny"....lol.  My lead guy who worked with him still says it 20 years later.

And all my employees laugh when I say "Fuck it, it is what it is".
