Rookies are fun. I was once sent to get a "bucket of
electricity"
(code name for extension cord). Lesson learned :-/

I told an incoming shift one day we had a missing employee.
Gasp!

Then I pointed to a digital Avery label picture I had placed
on a milk
carton. We will find him, yet! eyes rolled

One boss sent an employee out to count buffo toads at night
so he
could figure out what measures he would need to get rid of
'em.

(I have more examples of rookie fun)

Oh those days are still funny to me.

Sent a new hire to get the pipe stretcher. After 20 minutes he asked
"what does it look like".

Our entire crew got in hot water. "Someone" sent a helper to the tool
shack for a "bucket of ohms". (Large job, large trip)

The girl issuing tools' boyfriend happened to be a general foreman. He
was propped in the window talking to her when the helper asked. He
didn't get the joke. And before everything was said and done, we
didn't think it was funny any more either.

That's the whole story. This kind of "humor" isn't really funny. It's just
stupid.

They sent the new lab assistant to the stores for "half a dozen benzene
rings." But he knew more than they had imagined and came back with a
bottle of benzene and told them, "Here you are; pick out the ones you want."

Are you serious?! Worked your entire life WITHOUT job-site humor? Yes
it is humorous and having fun at work is healthy, reduces stress and
makes time fly.

Unless you are a sourpuss. Then folks let you live in you own little
space -- all by your lonesome.

Back in the service days we used the send the "cruits" out for boxes of grid
squares, there was always the need for some squelch oil and of course the

I had plenty of humor, without making a stupid ass of myself by asking people to
waste time doing obviously impossible things.

Never touch the stuff. Dihydrogen monoxide is good enough for me.

No one can afford beverages, any more. Due to Bee Ho, we be
drinking Dee Ho.

Used to give a metal ruler to the novice and ask that he confirm the
distance measurement between the battery terminals.

Or distance between the charged capacitor terminals.

All these are examples of degenerate humor, laughs at someone's
expense. Now I appreciate a good practical joke or trick of the new
guy, but this kind quickly ends up with degrading and exploitive
treatment. The current output of Hollywood, the situational comedy
(Sit Com) is the result. I learned (and enjoy) the English style of
humor where no-one gets shamed or ridiculed.

In nature, laughter is the sound of triumph. There are various ways
to triumph ...over others, over yourself.

However the tripe on American TV [sitcoms, Funniest Videos, etc.]
shows NO sensitivity to others, and there in lies their weakness.
Plus, no subtletly, which is worse.

For example, the original Tracey Ulman show had NO laugh track and was
uproariously funny. For the reruns, some idiot added laugh tracks,
which rendered the shows unviewable. ..obnoxious actually.
Inappropriate laugh track sounds are distracting. Just as distracting
as trying to enjoy a comedian and the idiotic director suddenly shows
people in the audience laughing. What do I care about those people?

True. Americans can lack humor, look at the sad attempts to remake
successful French comedies.
