population tools is a gd one, we get all the kids with them, everyone sends them to everyone else, into the manager etc, then we say its lost and get him to do an additional parts sheet which hell give to the parts guy to order one...
or we get a big bumper box, someone gets into it and then someone asks the young lad for a lift with the box, then when he gets close to it, the person inside jumps out at them... quality
long stand
tartan paint
left handed screw drivers

When we had a new mechanic here at work the other mechanics told him to go to the parts department and get a "long weight"
...so we gave him a "long wait" 
he also asked us for a left handed hammer
