Hear about the Irish gang who kidnapped Paddy O'Brien's daughter, and then sent her back home with the ransom note?
Her mum and dad sent her back with the money....

Me too.
Whoever set up the photo also didn’t realise that the circuit board is almost certainly upside down, i.e. The soldered connections would be on the other side, not the component side.

You might laugh but just look at PMs south of the Border.

I've seen it several times before, and it never occurred to me that it was sexist.If I remember correctly it originally appeared as part of an advert and was in no way meant as a trigger

Looks to me like there are a few surface mount components on that PCB.
Not that it matters, as the soldering iron's obviously not on. Still, with the rising cost of electricity...

I agree! Anyway it's not funny. Shortly after starting my apprenticeship (almost 60 years ago) I was talking to one of the ladies in the galvonometer department. The day she joined the company she had grabbed hold of the soldering iron to see if it was warming up. Third degree burns to her hand, three weeks off sick. Nasty. Her previous experience of 'irons' was smoothing irons where you could get away with a quick 'brush' over the sole.Enough about the soldering iron already

While on the electronics subject......................................
This is a close up taken from the official photo taken at the end of my RAF electronics apprenticeship many moons ago.
May I draw your attention to the ON/OFF switch located top RHS! (I also have one from our wedding in which my wife is signing the register with a closed fountain pen)

And no scope probes. So even if the scope was turned on HE'd only be looking at a flat trace.

Good to see the joke thread making a comeback.

I've sorted it.....for those 'woke' enough to not understand this is a joke thread.
Reminds me of one of my first attempts at oxy aceteline welding. My goggles had steamed up so I put the hand holding the hot welding rod up to move the goggles, severely burning my forehead. Didn't do that again!!
