I always tell guys to grease the muffler bearings or ask them did they clean the canuter valves before gettin on the tractor. Just curios what other people say at different jobs to the new guy.

I once told a new secretary she needed to check the oil in my printer. She asked how, I said the dipstick.
Evidently, those terms could be misconstrued into sexual harassment.

when I worked in lumber yards during college, the favorite was to always tell the new guy to air up the forklift tires
those old guys thought that shite was hilarious

the wire stretcher is always a good one. In HS baseball we sent a guy to the equipment shed to look for the curve balls. He was there for a while.

I asked a helper, who was pretty cocky but not the sharpest tool in the shed, to go get me the air conditioner key out of the job box.
We were working on a pipeline in the middle of nowhere and it was really hot. He looked around in there for about 10 minutes. His coworkers laughter finally interrupted him.

ask him if he woke up with his boxers at his ankles and butt all sore if he'd tell anyone....

Anyone who seems like they don't know what's going on I tell to test for Kuru. It's pretty funny when they actually try to figure out how to do that.
And I usually don't care, but shouldn't this really be on the OT?

For plant workers
a can of Arc start to spray on metal to start welding, and bubble water to refill a level.
A good one is to bet that a new guy can't bend a handful of welding rods on top his head. have to make sure to do it first thing in morning though so he has to deal with the slag in his shirt for the rest of the day

buddy of mine that worked as a lineman for a phone/cable provider use to always send the new guy to go get a can of dial tone out of the truck. If they asked what it looked like he would just tell them to listen and they would know when they heard it.

HS football: Told ginger manager to go find the left-handed football. Poor thing went through every ball we had, even inflated brand new ones. Every one he brought back to coach, coach would point to the trademark symbol (R) and tell him it was another right handed football.
HS baseball: Told the same ginger manager to find the key to the batter's box.

Typical one to pull on young newbie boots on a ship. We'd send them to the Machinist tool department to get a hammerfore.
Everyone on the ship knew this gag, so the Machinist would scream at the boot for bothering him, and then refer him to another department, who would scream at him and refer him to another department, and so on, and so on.
This would continue until the newbie finally asked someone, "What's a hammerfore?"
At which they're told, "To hit a fricking nail with you frickin' moron," and then scream at them some more for being stupid.
