Is that Mando too? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

As I was watching some of my tapes of CATM
I saw the episode entitled,borrowed trouble,where Ed and Chico borrow money for new parts for the business. When Ed is discouraged for lack of customers Chico is in the storeroom packing parts to return them when a road construction guy comes to use the restroom.
I could swear that is Isaac Ruiz in his first appearence on the show.
Is that him or not?

In fact on the JUROR episode Della Resse plays the judge. & That was before she was Della Rogers...

I always wondered why MANDO was a workman in that episode (He was credited in that episode as being Mando) & in the next one he's in he's a butcher. Did he change jobs or did they forget he was a workman & cast him as a butcher next? I got the impression in the workman episode that Ed didn't yet know he was Chico's best friend. & What was so funny was how he was when he had to go to the bathroom so bad & when he left at the end of the show Chico never knew he was there.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that Mando was good looking too! UMMMM... When he & Chico got together-- Hot Tamale baby!!!!

Mando also was a truck driver who delivered gas when Chico was on strike after joining the union.

You're right he was in the Strike episode. It funny how he was Mando in all of them & yet they gave him a different carrerr in each one. I wonder if that was a blooper?

I don't think it was a blooper maybe Mando had part time jobs.I think he also worked in his Uncle's jewelry store.(When he brought Chico the engagement ring for Marilyn.
