Reminds me of the time (many years ago), when the
new kid on the gang was ordered to "Wash the
Dishes" (microwave ), on a 150 foot tower ! Kid
decided it was time to quit! Had to
tell him it was a JOKE, or get the WHOLE Gang
in hot water !!! Jim NN7K

Yeah. When I was in the RCAF many years ago, a common thing was to ask a
newbie to go to the tool crib for a bucket of propwash.

When I reached my first duty assignment in the USAF I was sent on a fools
errand to get 1000 yards of flight line. When I got to the place I was
suppose to pick it up I told the guys there that I knew what flightline was
but I had an idea for a joke on the guy that sent me down there.They were
very happy to help. We went out back of the base and loaded up a truck with
rubble from flightline construction then took it back and put it the POV
pickup of they guy who had sent me out. When I went back to the shop I told
him I had the flightline but didnt think I had the thousand yards he had
requested. This got him and everyone else in the shop curious and they all
wanted to see what I had brought back. Thats when I told him to go look in
the back of his pickup.

Or looking for a left-handed crescent wrench and fetching a bucket of
prop wash.

The problem with this joke is that the wrench exhists. Handedness in a
wrench is determined by which thumb closes the jaws. Right thumb right
hand wrench, left thumb left handed wrench.

I have a left handed crescent type wrench. Where was it made?
POLAND of course.

Wrench available for inspection.

At 23, I took a job as a young engineer at a place that had previously been
a gyroscope manufacturer. As the new guy, they asked my to deliver a
briefcase to the boss' office and (you guessed it) there was a spinning gryo
in the briefcase. I got a big surprise when I tried to turn a corner in the
corrider and the briefcase kept going straight ahead! A great 'new guy'
trick.

Or send the new guy in engineering to supply for a pressurized
container of Dihydrogen Monoxide.

Or send the new finance guy to get the difference finder.
