Hammer & Shovel Technique

[Dizzy_Maskell]

Just been talking about my old apprentice days and was telling my colleague about the first time I completed my own install,
My supervisor said right you are qualified so you build it test it and then you turn it on.
I was understandably nervous but all tested fine turned it on to an almighty bang raw fear and dread and the smell of poo faded after only a few seconds and turned to rage as I saw my supervisor and the other lads stood round laughing holding a shovel and hammer.

So here's the question what's the best story people have to offer on this subject.

We had a girl in our office who always wore knee length boots,in a morning she'd come in and sit in her chair at one end of the desk unzip her boots step out of them,into her shoes wheel along the floor on her chair and start work.At the end of each day the process was reversed,one of the lads came into the office while she was out and coated the soles of her boots with impact adhesive,Five o'clock came and there was a few people in the office,she wheeled along the desk,slipped her shoes off feet into boots,zipped them up and stood up.It was so funny watching her trying to move,she couldn't work out why her feet were stuck to the floor.

I wouldn’t have dared do that to the girls on my shift, retribution would be swift and painful!
