fool's errand

special task for the uninformed new worker to a job
Get me the keys to the sea chest
Get me some prop wash
I need some relative bearing grease
Hand me a left handed spanner wrench
I'm gonna need a horse ladder
Me thinks me need a flannel hammer
I'm gonna need a rubber hammer for glass nails
