I once asked a news department co-worker at the radio ranch to get a metric adjustable wrench from the station's engineer so we could finish installing the police radio under the dash of the news car. He bit; the engineer laughed about it for weeks.

1982-83 just starting out as flooring installer. Working in a big grocery store at night when it was closed, installing new vinyl tiles. The journeyman I was grunting for sent me back to the warehouse to get a column jack. I spent the better part of an hour looking. Get back to the job and the big boss asks me "where you been"? I told him and apologized for not being able to find the "column jack". He almost fired the journeyman and I got a reaming for being so stupid.
On a drilling rig, the space on the floor where pipe is pulled up and layed down on the catwalk is called the V door.....and there are some keys for it somewhere....
