don't have any service stories yet so you will have to do with a wind up story,
Last year i was working back in the UK on an ex mod nuclear bunker conversion, I think 10 months underground (wasn't that bad) must of affected us because the various trades started playing little triks on each other:p
for some reason the AC engineer was not amused and being 6'6" made it known not to mess with him:confused:
That weekend I was playing air soft (paintball) with some friends, you could buy smoke grenades, and for a tenner they had the mother of all smoke grenades, which i promptly purchased:o
The outside units had been installed in the top of 2 service ventilation towers, the engineers had struggled to get the units to the top of these towers, they where accessed by one ladder onto a gantry then another to the top of the towers, the units where installed inside the towers,
Now a fast AC engineer is a very rare thing to see, but when he saw smoke bellowing out of the top of the tower, he treated us to a rare display of speed, I think it took 5 minuets for his heart to start beating and to stop swearing lol,
what astonished us more was that he saw the funny side, very rare indeed for an AC engineer, :o
you got any stories of mischief?
