Overheard a guy at the shop say CNC stands for 'Costs Never Cease'

I was grabbing some end mills at the supply house and this older machinist just dropped that line while waiting in line. I laughed but then I added up what I spent on tooling last month, about $800, and it hit me how true that is. Has anyone else got any funny nicknames or sayings they've picked up from old timers?

Continuous Negative Cashflow" haha that's a good one @eric_ramirez67. I've heard some guys call it "Crash 'N Crash" because one wrong move and you're buying a whole new end mill plus the work piece.

My wallet calls it "Continuous Negative Cashflow" but what does it know.
