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.

Yeah, and I've had these two left handed pipe wrenches around for
years. This southpaw found them indispensable on galvanized, but can't
seem to get them to work on copper pipe.
