Left Handed Smoke Shifter 1
Left Handed Smoke Shifter 1 : A non-existent device used to haze probationary firefighters during an overhaul phase. A crew chief sends his Probie to fetch one, but no such device actually exists. Each truck the probie visits consequently does ". . . not have one", or ". . . another crew just took it," but each truck operator knows for certain that, "THAT truck might have one, over there. . . " The process repeats until the probie has been to each truck looking for the device, while the crew chief increasingly chides him to "hurry up" over the radio. This is similar to military non-objects such as 'relative bearing grease' or 'winter air' for tires, or a trainee nurse being asked to fetch a 'neck tourniquet'
