My deckhand is some kinda a smart alec, Loves asking these questions.
Latest:
Him:hay nugget, how much dirt is in a 4'x5'x3' hole
Me: *starts doing math in my head*
Him: nugget....is a friggen hole there's no dirt in it
Me :

LOL,

Ask him,,,If a chicken and a half,,layed an egg and a half,,in a day in and half,,,,how much would a pound of butter weigh?

Ask him how old are you now.After he answers,,ask,,if you were born ten years ago ,,how old would you be now/

Hmm, you found someone that can " out question you" ?

Sounds like he needs his teeth mashed down his throat

If you can find one, take a book of matches, tear one out and and give him 3 tries to throw it so it lands on it's thin side. Then bend one and throw it and it will land on it's thin side.

Have him stack as many nails as he can at once on one nail, nailed into a block of wood and then beat him by stacking more. The trick is to lay one nail down, lay other nails alternating the way they point, the entire length and then cap it with another nail facing the opposite way of the first.

Bet him you can run around the entire barge in 10 seconds. Count 10 second on your phone and then start running.

Ask him if a plane crashes on the US/Canadian border, where do you bury the survivors? You don't bury survivors.

Ask him how many dead people are buried in that cemetery? The answer is all of them.

I like him, he actually thinks and questions and isn't just one of these brian dead NPC's who just does what their told without a second thought. Nice change of pace

Send him to the bilge for “a bucket of prop wash”

Then to the engine room for “a bucket of steam”

Show him some of your memes. That ought to keep him busy for a few weeks trying to figure things out.

LOL

You trying to make the guy jump off the boat?

He actually gets them and isn't offended easily so it's pretty good because I can show him the good ones and he got ones to trade

Not that it matters; but, I have to ask. Is he your deck hand?, or a fellow deck hand?

OK, it's been a day with no response, so I just need to make, a few assumptions. The thread assumes that Wolfiie is the senior man and is allowing himself to be belittled by a junior man. If so, it could be a major breach of the chain of command. I assume you expect a little respect.

Now, on the other hand, if we are talking about two people of equal standing, it just sounds like good clean fun.

Yep. With my company it's basically tankermen or mates get a deckhand and the train under you / the other people on your level. So he's my trainee/ deckhand

I can hear it right now

Just a long stare and * nugget....you know I'm not retarded right ? " that or (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) just walk off and screw off for a while . Kids been in the trade a while he knows most tof the gags lol

Love it!!!
