well let's see, back in the day when Rivits were the preffered way to attach 2 peices of metal together (before welding became the norm), there was a guy who's entire job was to walk around and count the number of rivits on the Object in question (in our case Locomotives). If there weren't enough rivits, the rivitor was fined and forced to redo the work. everynow and then, you'd hear some riviter say "watch out, here come the rivit counter, bet you missed one!" to fellow riviters. well soon, the poor guys who's job it was to count rivits started getting a bad rap, he was ostrisized from the group and generally ignored outside of work as well. Over time, as riviting became less and less used, the legend of the Rivit counters was formed. so now when you hear rivit counter, you already know it's a bad thing. Poor Rivit counters, destroyed for eternity by prejiduces. Jay Note: preceeding story is fictional and is not based on any factual events.
