We've evidently been at this Refuel Outage too long, and people's sense of humour is manifesting itself in odd little ways. At the top of the RB Hatch Platform, 47 feet above ground level, there’s a lime-green visqueen tent for the Rad Protection Techs. Not sure if it was one of them, or one of the Laborers, but someone took the liberty of scrawling a picture of a crustacean just above the door flap, and to the right, posting a menu. They named the place Davy Jones' Dinner Shanty and these are the items on the menu:
Crab Burgers $24.00
Deviled Crab $32.75
Crab Legs $67.25
Hot Wings $18.37
Chicken Strips $15.75
Kid’s Meal PB&Jellyfish $12.95
Steak & Grunions $52.50
Flounder Flambé $101.95
Mahi-Mahi & Mashers $75.75
Crossed Porpoises Platter $42.00
Komodo Casserole $3,000.00
I dove in and added a few to it, as well as a drinks list around the corner, on the broad side of the tent. you can ask the bartender for these draughts from Davy Jones’ Locker o’ Liquor:
Long Island Iced Tea
Vodka Martuna
Sextant on the Beach
Mussel Beach Shooters
Hammerhead Screwdriver
Guinness (Book of World Records) Pacific-sized Pint
Grouper Hug half-Pint
Crossed Porpoises Peligrino
Ahab’s White Whale Whiskey
Arctic Circle Slushees
South Seas Sangria – glass $4.50 – bottle – $5.00

You just have to enjoy a work situation that, reguardless of the stresses and deadlines, can find time for humour.

Of course, as in most large corporations, this kind of stuff has to be done 'on the sly' and everyone WILL disavow any knowledge of how it got there.
