New guys are fun.
We usually send them for a set of Push Slaps,
a pipe stretcher,
the key to the V-door,
or get them to fill the water tank with a hose coming off the water tank. :lol:

I worked at a lumberyard when I was younger the board stretcher trick was a right of passage for all new guys. When they tried to get me i said you cant stretch wood and everyone was so bummed they could not get me. 2stroke sorry your boss is a dick.
