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.
