I worked in a shop of about ten people and the tricks were rampant. Matter-of-fact, a lot of them were quite dangerous. I did very few of them, but there would always be payback if one was pulled on me. Anyway, one of them that I pulled on a co-worker was with the muffler to his pickup truck. During break or after work we could work on our vehicles for a few minutes, if needed. A co-worker had bought a new muffler for his pickup and had left it on the bed of his pickup for about a month.

The fitting was used so that you could put it inside the muffler without seeing any grease in the muffler tube. He finally found a day to install the muffler and our shop was about 6 miles from town. By the time he got to town, there was so much smoke coming out the exhaust that cars had to pull over behind him. (This was in a rural area, not a busy highway) The next day he was pretty hot about it, but he remembered that paybacks are h3ll.
