So the foreman is giving both blokes a massive ass chewing. Prankster wants to smash the polisher but the foreman demands they shake hands and call it quits.
You, get that fkn turd ground off the bench before the boss gets here !
You, oh mate your so fkn screwed !
The trouble was the turd was cast in a huge twenty litres of epoxy and to make it even worse the polisher had set screws in the bench to make it even harder. Some of the turd was broken in to smaller bits and dispersed around the main turd.
The boss rocks up early in his Bentley because, you know, times are hard and margins razor thin.
Walks in to the shop to see clouds of dust, everyone wearing masks and prankster grinding away on the massive block with a belt sander.
He goes off !
" What the fk is goin on ere ? Why aren't you working on your job ? And why does my workshop smell like shit ?"
Guys are desperately trying to hide their laughter at this point.
The foreman is summoned to his mezzanine office overlooking the shop floor. Everyone can see through the glass, boss man screaming at the foreman. Finally he gets told what happened. By now the boss is beyond angry.
He comes down and summons the two offender's.
" That's my old bench you shat on ! How fkn dare you !"
The polisher can no longer contain his laughter even though he knows he has lost his job. He is gasping for breath, barely able to stand. Everyone else is hiding their laughter as best they can.
" And thanks to you my whole business smells like shit ya pommie bastard !"
Not even the foreman could hold back laughing now.
Then the boss turns to one of the young lad's who is clutching his stomach on the floor.
" What are you laughing at ?"
" we nick named them pooper and scooper"
That was it. The boss lost it too and those names stuck. Pooper and Scooper became best mates and the story became a running joke. The bloke who told me the story worked there. God I wish I'd witnessed it myself.
This is possibly the best story I've ever heard but there are many many more.
