Dumb Airmen

[flew-da-coup]

Here Boy, take the wheel. I had too much to drink. Being five is not an excuse not to drive!

[Thraxas]

Boy, get up on the roof and fix the satellite dish. Don't go giving me no "Dad, there's a thunder storm outside."

[Thraxas]

What? No more dumb airmen stories, Chuck?

[flew-da-coup]

Here are two for you Thraxas: Bob Skinn... & Dave Rober.... Now that's the 2 dumbest airmen ever.

[Thraxas]

You're a little obsessed with your former coworkers.

[flew-da-coup]

They made life enemies. I know how much you love Dave. Hehehe. You guys always got along. I know you enjoyed him going to the lead and project manager telling them you suck. You should thank him. NOT. You know how those two are.

Okay, I do have one from a while back when I was still an airman.  I was at a training class at the MPF on Holloman AFB when the building had to be evacuated for a bomb threat.  Now I was at this class with a female coworker who was pregnant. As we were standing across the street watching them try to navigate their robot through the door, one of the bomb squad gave a description of the "bomb", after which my coworker turned white.  She had left her breast pump box in the women's bathroom and someone had called it in.  We never let her live that one down.

I hope she knew she didn't need the breast pump until AFTER her pregnancy was over...!

(They don't fill the milk tanks for delivery until after the customer is ready to receive the 1st shipment...)

Winter at Ramstein AB, Germany...  Some flight line person had left a 5-gallon pail of red hydraulic fluid on the flight line.  Civil Engineering is out after a snowstorm plowing the runways and taxiways.  Sure enough- WHAM!  The plow operator sees this huge red spray of liquid come off his plow, and he thinks "MY GOD!!  I JUST HIT SOMEONE!!"

Now there are ambulances, security police, civil engineering, the DCM, the base commander, and a chaplain all scrurrying around the runway looking for Airman Out-a-luck, supposedly having been creamed by the plow...  They found a very mangled hydraulic fluid pail a little while later, much to everyone's relief...

Just out of curiosity...this wouldn't happen to be the same coworker that zapped herself with a 5700?

Breast pumps are freaky.

Why yes, Thraxas, it would be.  Something like 100V@1kHz or something around there.  She dropped it across her hand and it probably scared her more than hurt her. 

[Thraxas]

Heh, heh. I suspected as much.

[cobychuck]

Were you there when it happened or did you hear about it later?  Which begs the question either way...who are you?

[cobychuck]

Okay, these airmen aren't providing me with material for this string.  I guess it's just a dry spell for stories.  I  know there will be more to tell. 

Thraxas, I'm waiting on an answer. (The suspense is killing me!)
