Slack, Crackle And Pop
(I am a civilian working in a Navy shipyard. The following happens as I am on the ship monitoring a system. One of the sailors who works on this system has a reputation for being a bit of a slacker.)
Slacker: “This is so much better than sitting around with no work to do.”
Other Sailor: *to me* “You taking notes?”
Me: “Yeah.”
Other Sailor: “Write it down. “At [exact time] on [date], [Slacker] finally got his head out of his a**.”
(About two minutes later, their supervisor arrives.)
Other Sailor: “Hey Chief! Guess what? [Slacker] finally got his head out of his a**!”
Chief: “WHAT?!”
Other Sailor: “Yeah, he said having work to do is better than sitting around with nothing to do.”
Chief: *runs up and pinches [Slacker]*
Slacker: “Ow!”
Chief: “Yep, you’re awake!” *turns to me and the other sailor* “So… was there, like, a popping sound when it came out?”
