In the Navy we send them to grease the relative bearing on the bridge, or to fetch a bucket of steam.

Personal favourite is when we take an old plum bob, tie some weak string to it. Tell the new guy it's a very expensive device used to test thermal layers in the water. He lowers it down over the side. It falls off. We convince him he just lost a 25,000 dollar sensor, and wait for the fun to unfold.

Or when you tell him to get into the barrel... Old Navy joke...

Anyway, I think that good natured work pranks are one thing but when someone comes to you for help... Hell, I just gave Derf some advice on modifying his muffler yesterday...
