Has anyone seen this little picture on the Lemforder boxes?

It is a tiny triangle with a regular stick figure and a mechanic looking stick figure.

The regular stick figure guy is crossed out For some reason I found this kinda funny.



A quote from the website I stole the picture from: "You may be too poor to clothe yourself now, but once you upcharge the customer for installing the giubos in this box, you'll have enough cash for some work clothes and a big ass wrench."

I believe it is instructing you to not work naked and for the love of Pete, get a hat to hide your bald-arsed head!

I added the picture after I wrote the post. Needless to say, I remember I did well in middle school geometry

My guess is that the picture means," No user serviceable parts inside. Part must be installed by a qualified/ certified mechanic"
How long before DIY repairs will not be allowed until DIYers get a license and pass a gov. test?

Nope, it means a mechanic should always keep a friend with a long pry bar nearby.
