Airframers and the amusment we find in the simple things

Airframers are a special breed of NAVY worker bees. We are hard working, strong, and best of all amused by the little things. Primary example is how they guys I work with began entertaining themselves with foam from a part. They first began by throwing the the foam around the shop and trying to hit people with the foam, then they progressed to trying to stick their heads through the cut out in the foam. It was amusing to watch them do that, but the thing is don't let the guys anywhere near tape or zip ties or else you will have your hands zip tied behind your back and possibly have yourself tapped to a chair. Then if they get tired of throwing around just plain old foam they might find the tape. Then they will take the tape and wrap the foam up into a foam tape ball and throw it around the room. Sometimes the amusing part is just sitting inside the helicopter swapping sea stories back and forth. But then again it's also funny when someone finds out they have advanced to the next paygrade and their told to go stand in the corner, all the while that person is standing there trying not to laugh with you. Why oh why are we they way we are? We are a strange bunch of people so strange that some have been known to swing from the rafters and act like a monkey...seriously...others will just cut you off when you're talking and tell you to shut up, well even when you're not saying anything they will do it. Go figure at the strangeness.
