Fresh for Days

To stop working early or leave something unfinished for the next person to come along.

Derived from shift workers whereby graveyard shift, the most unappreciated and thankless of all the shifts, comes to a stopping point, and leaves the rest "fresh" or ready to be picked up by the upcoming day shift.

This can be used both as a legitimate response to an inquiry concerning turnover, or as a joke used at the beginning of the shift when the work expectations are outlined by the boss
Example 1

Night Foreman over the radio: "Will you boys be able to stretch the wire to the heat pump by quitting time? Or did you spend all night sleeping and stealing instead of working?"

Electrician in response: "Nope, it's gonna be fresh for days"

Night Foreman in thought "Damn lazy sparkies"

Example 2

Shift Supervisor: "All right guys, we need to have these pipes installed by lunch time, got it?"

Lead Pipe-fitter: "Gotcha, fresh for days"

Everyone else: "fresh for days; damn right; take a break etc..."

Troll For a Day

When a board suffers from group think and stagnation, sometimes one poster will create a new account and log in to tweak the other posters into a flame war. The Troll for a Day will announce they are a TFAD (TFADing) and everyone will congratulate the regular after getting over their murderous impulses for bringing the community back to life. Some argue that TFADing is a valid tactic for a board administrator to re-spark interest in a community and should be applied when the situation requires it as long as all suspecting members are silenced in a swift fashion.
Posters on message boards who have experienced this behavior will immediately try to label all newcomers as "Troll For a Day".

4 day rule

The 4 day rule is in relation to the birthday dirty pint tradition that all Lads have. The dirty pint must be poured 4 days either side of the birthday in question.
Exceptions:
Your name begins with A.
You have a specific event booked for your birthday that falls outside of the 4 days.
You have an absurd addiction to red onions and Mayo.
Hey Wilson, you know you have to do a dirty pint next weekend?
No, the 4 day rule states that its outside if my birthday and so it is void.
*Wilson checks Official source of all Lad rules.
Oh schnap you're correct I am exempt from the 4 day rule and I must in fact have the dirtiest pint of all for attempting to weasel out of it.
