I just got asked the dumbest questions on an exam

[ross_scott]

I was just doing one my advanced chainsaw operators exam which is the last theory exam on my logging course and three of the dumbest questions I have ever seen came up and they were to identify and decribe the functions on the following

oil cap
Fuel Cap
front handle

what the hell do you think they do and you cant hold a chainsaw by the rear handle with two hands and use it. is what I felt like putting for the answer for those three questions.

 

[Rookie1]

Ill bet some get the answers wrong on those questions.

 

[belgian]

those were tricky questions...

because the purpose of the fuel cap is different in case it's a regular screw type cap or a Stihl flippy cap...:spam: :hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange:

 

[CentaurG2]

So what were the correct answers to each??

 

[edisto]

Were the caps vented?

 

[caotropheus]

Sorry fellows, I am confused now !

You want to tell me you have a front handle in your saws?! :monkey:

You want to tell me you don't use the fuel and oil caps as ear plugs?! :monkey:

They gotta thin the herd somehow.

So that you'll at least get SOME points even if you don't know your name.

 

[Flapjack23]

Sad fact is there are some dummies out there that cant identify those parts or their use.

 

[alderman]

The oil and fuel caps aren't really important unless you forget to put them back on. No like I'd ever do that..............

or admit to it anyway.

 

[madhatte]

Aw, look at those questions as freebie points.

I have done that and have boots that smell like gas to prove it

 

[Stihl088stock]

Well, I guess a similar question in another industry might be more complicated...

There's only so many general questions to ask about chainsaws... No instrument panels to interpolate readings from...

 

[kspakland]

What kind/brand of oil was under the oil cap ?

LOLOL Nice..

The questions remind me of when I took my California contactors license exam. 400 questions on how I was going to pay california their money and the other 200 on obsolete trade questions from before the industrial age.

Hooters fantastic bar oil bwahahahahahahahahah :greenchainsaw:

 

[Philbert]

My favorite question like that on an exam was:

"What are the holes in the spark arrestor for?"

(PM me if you need the answer)

Here is how I would answer that question about the front handle. The purpose of the front handle is for a person to hold with the LEFT hand and use the back handle for the RIGHT hand to work the throttle.

Don't blame me -- chainsaws are built for right handed people.
