1.You've comfortably exceeded 10,000 points at Gin on a Harrier field deployment.
2. You've been spotted on the daily recce run over the site and your picture is posted by the mess tent with a big arrow and the word tosser written beside it.
3. You've fallen asleep on a hover pad slightly the worse for wear to be woken up by a plods dog licking your face.
4. You've almost slipped the surly bonds during an untied down engine run....
etc etc....

You know that having your tool kit on board makes it easy to turn a row of 3 seats round for the card school on one of the 'pack up' crates!
On a 7 hour leg in a Britannia there was plenty of time to put the seats back proper for landing

Similar for urinal pipe tests on the C-130.
1) Blank off external end (underside near ramp).
2) Pour honk bag of water down front urinal disconect and then pressurise with pump.
3) Ask new rigger to go under aircraft on crawler board and remove blank.
4) Wait for shouts and hear knocking on underside (head hitting bottom of A/C in attempt to escape pressurised 5 day old p*ss hosing.

Similar to NutLoose:
Ignore the warning sign blue trail running back from the rear bog on a VC 10!
You stand downwind from the above said bog cap and take it off
