shmogt, that was an epic. Very sad in the beginning, yet very uplifting in the end. A total waste of time, yet it's so awesome I don't care.
 
TMZ footage of the "Depressed Mechanic"- Is this the man responsible for creating the beloved chicken McNugget? Our photographer spotted this man https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/album.php?albumid=3037&pictureid=32802working for Jay Leno. He is suspected of being the inventor of the fast food delight but never received recognition or compensation for his feat. He is the man in the picture to the far right.

Police also would like to talk to this man in regards to a fire that was set at his place of employment late last night. They released this surveillance photo.https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/album.php?albumid=3037&pictureid=32803.

Anyone with information to this mans whereabouts is asked to contact their local police or crimestoppers.
 
He is depressed because he is really Fernando Alonso,and is now sat there thinking "I used to a be good driver" :sly:

The reason he's depressed is obvious. He worked for McDonald's as a kid always inspiring to be a race car driver. He was quite good at his job and liked everyone he worked with. Than one day he over heard some customers talking about how they loved the chicken burger the best, but hated how it was so big. He went home that night and began to think of ideas that could solve this problem. After all if one person said it I'm sure others feel the same way he thought. He tried many different things from making a full burger and just cutting the centers out to be smaller to trying to make little tiny almost slider style mini chicken burgers. They all tasted good, but none had the ability to be a mass market product. He couldn't just give up and tried as hard as he could when finally his eureka moment happened! Just take a small piece of chicken and coat it in breading. That way it will be like a self contained chicken burger only you can take them in the go. Thrilled at his discovery he immediately went to sleep so excited to tell his boss at what he had made. Morning came and he ran to work with one of these new small breaded chicken burgers and took it straight to his boss his boss tried it and loved it almost instantly calling head off to try this too. He was ecstatic that the big wigs were going to try it and this was his chance to really get his career going.

He planned on using all money for racing, buying the best of everything and hiring the greatest drivers to teach him there tricks. The next day some executives came down and tried his new invention. He patiently waited to hear there response. The suspense was killing him as he watched them chewing. Every bite a step forward towards his racing dreams. The executive looked him right in the eye and said "I love this, we need to get these on our menus right away". Hurray!!! He thought I have done it. All my dreams will come true very soon and I can finally just focus on being a race car driver.

Later that week they flew him out to meet and show his new product to all the head executives and some high up share holders. He got there still in shock at how quick this was happening more than happy to show off his new product. The meeting goes perfect and everyone loves these new small chicken things. There stumped tho as to what to call them. Chicken bites one person says? Mini chicken burger? Chicken nuggets? Many more names were tossed out, but nothing that was perfect to fit the McDonalds brand. Wait he said. It is a small piece of chicken coated in beading. Let's take chicken nugget and call them... Chicken Mcnuggets! Genius everyone screamed.

After the meeting they flew him home and told him they would contact him shortly as to what there decision would be. A couple weeks goes by and he hears nothing. Than a month. Than a few months. He tried calling a few times, but was always told it's a long process and just to wait it out. He knew McDonalds was a large company and there were probably lots of legal stuff to make sure it can be released in all there restaurants all over the world so fine he waited. Than one day he comes into work and see NEW chicken Mcnuggets on the menu. Wtf is this they never called or anything telling him that his idea was a go. He asked his boss, but just being a manager at one place he said he had know idea what happened and was just told this is the new product.

He called and called, but could never get threw and was always passed along to other people who really had no control over this. Finally it had gone on too long and he planned on suing McDonalds for stealing his idea. Everything was good and in place when his lawyer sent the letter to them explaining that they will be sued if they do not pay a certain amount to his client. A few days later the got a response back from McDonalds lawyers saying they did nothing wrong and would glady be taken to court.

The day of court came and was pushed back. Than a small hearing, but again McDonalds managed to get the date moved. This was finically starting to get tough as he was paying all these legal fees and getting no closers to getting his money from McDonalds. After about a year of this he had it. There was no more money. He had borrowed more than enough from his family and the banks. He just couldn't wait any longer and was forced to drop the lawsuit.

He had no zest for life after that. McDonald's had clearly stolen his idea and there was nothing he could do about it. He fell into a deep depression and got fired from his job. No job, no money, bills threw the roof he was forced to declare personal bankruptcy. He was homless now with not a cent to his name. He lived on the streets for a little while applying at all the other small business just to get anything to get his life back on track. All his dreams were crushed now. He had not a care in the world. Eventually he got a job and saved up for a small apartment which he could barely afford since his wages were being subside to go towards paying his debt that was ever increasing.

Reading this story to the point I cutted: I had the same "feeling rollercoaster" during a Stealth trade with torquebeastsven up to the point where I realized of being scammed. :lol:
 
Because it is the umpteenth time he has to change your car tires.
His co-worker says "Quit crying baby".

I don't think he's depressed, he's hiding his face from view because he's the new Top Gear Stig posing as a mechanic:dopey:

some say...
 
After a long period for recharging your creativity I`d like to ask again... Why, oh, why is the mechanic so depressed?
 
I...well....he's....pfffhahahaha I'm sorry, but the level of funny going on here is over 9.000!! XD :lol::lol::lol: I can't focus for a second to make something up. :dopey:

He's saying..."Why can't I have a nice suit like that guy over there with the cool helmet?" :dopey:
 
I reckon some female colleagues in the GT-Auto and the garage will cheer the whole lot of the poor fellows up :).

PD are you listening? :confused:
 
Because over the years of dirty hard labour he's busy fixing other people's cars for family and friends, and at work, and never has energy to work on his own car, until eventually, he gets too old and demented to appreciate his craft or his self worth anymore.

/love my dad. self taught Mechanic 1972-2010

shh, don't tell him, I'm buying him a nice old Camaro for this 70th.

Glad to see a good father-son relationship getting together by their passion for cars.
Me and my dad used to go on off road tours with a Toyota Landcruiser series 40, damn that thing was DA-BOM! :dopey:
I was only 12, so my job as a navigator was crucial to maintain my dad's fun of driving! 👍

...I guess our old friend is just sad because nobody has given him a name yet! We have Bob the dumb driver, Jenkins the cat, but he doesn't have a name yet! Any suggestions? How about Mr. Rubber? Since he's in charge of tyres. :dopey:
