As a kid I worked in a clam shack and the cook sent me down cellar to get some peanut oil. The shack was on pilings over the harbor. I knew that but went looking for the trap door.

Ive been sent to get wood stretchers, a bottle of steam conditioner, a ten inch metric wrench. I really like the ten yards of stern sheet and I will definitely have our new guy call DES and ask for ID10T form. (of course there is always the danger that some bureaucrat up there will actually go look for one)
I love pranks. Unfortunately some of the work we have to do in the wastewater field sound like pranks but there not!
