So, where does joking and pranking cross over into hazing? I am legitimately curious.

I have been told that some of the offshore guys have been known to tell a newby to go fetch a bucket of "A I R". Obviously the new guy will be unable to find it and then ask someone else who then laughs and tells them they have been pranked. That kind of thing I don't see much harm in other than the person realizing how gullible he was.

But that stuff with that Fire Dept. is way over the line.
