Backup up Fridges!!

[Drum]

Here at RMIT we have a closed fridge policy. We have multiple backup plans for all our refrigeration purposes. I was told that our team fridge was less reliable now that the seals had started wearing and the contents of the fridge were not cold.

Here is our backup fridge which we were meant to have no problems with because it was a standard unit.

Now with the door left open, this fridge is now useless.

Here are the backup backup options

What does this prove Drum? I'm disappointed to see this sort of shit aired in public. At least we'd managed to keep the in-fighting and bitching to the overworked carrier pigeons here at RMIT. The glory is in the cold beer not the warm salami.

Relax buddy.
I think it was an attempt to have some fun and take the piss out of a very funny situation.

Get a haircut hippie.

Grant, relax buddy. Just trying to give the guys including myself who are working flat out on consuming the food in the fridge a laugh. No malice intended, we left all that behind 3 weeks ago when the milk went off and we decided to replace it.

[Big Jase Gray]

Drum-3 weeks ago you decided to restock the fridge? What have you been doing for the last 11 months?

PS Grant – have a shave

Why? Your sister never complains......
Sorry everyone. I'll make sure which food expiry dates are funny and which aren't.

Perhaps Grant was just disappointed there was no pics of the main fridge, just the backup.

I think the important thing here is that Drummy can leave any fridge door open, beer or no beer....

[Drum]

Shazman, whoever you are – at least the main fridge kept the beer cold in 2003. Your backup fridge only ran for 2 minutes before the compressor came off. Just remember, when setting the fridge thermostat we use Celsius in Australia, not Farenheit.

You might want to check your front number plates, your plates are up for ransom.

If any other teams need a hand drinking cold beer after the comp, let us know. Looking forward to a beer with you all (including Melb uni!!)

Well it's happened, the Aussies have gone nuts. Seriously, it's threads like these that make the rest of the world refer to Australia as "Upside down Canada".

But seriously though... not only a fridge in the shop... but MULTIPLE fridges... damn, you guys are well off. And that stainless thing attached to the wall with a tap on it... the possibilities. Up here we have only one fridge that mech undergrads use... and it used to belong to the anatomy department to store... stuff.

see you guys at the comp, fridge or no fridge! http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Couldn't the time you wasted stealing number plates and posting pictures have been better spent with Will's mum? http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Good luck on the weekend. http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Gentlemen from RMIT,

That is a sensational effort - one of the best piss-takes I have ever seen. Congrats on reminding us what this competition is all about (sleep deprivation-induced humour and beer it seems!), and hopefully some people will take things a little less seriously/personally. Good luck for the weekend, looking forward to see the new and improved milk with 16 PSI!

[Mark Bacchetti]

HAHAHAHAHAHA.

You guys rock.

Top work on 'da fridge'. Its about time that more engineers applied their knowledge to real world problems such as this.

[EgyptianMagician]

Yo ... Just wanted let ya know that I was kidding about the engine.

That's been something on the net for a while now, VERY anxious to try it.
