Default When you thought you seen it all....

I've been working for 7 years now in that company and it never ceases to surprise me.

Came to work today and one of the assignments was to move one of the windmill parts into the oven, oven we use for curing epoxy material, like carbon hulls and windmill parts, so it's a large oven.
And I go to check if the oven is empty and it was not.

A semi-truck with a trailer and a sailboat on the trailer was parked inside !!!!
Not only that, the oven was at about 40°C which means it was running.

Why the hell were we baking a truck with a sailboat ????????

And to top it all of, the trucks owner came in a few hours later and asked if his truck was done baking

Call me a liar if you don't believe me, the absurdity of it all, I wish I was.

Did he want it lightly toasting or well done?

I confess that I am a lay person in this area. Is there any possible reason for either the truck or the boat to be in the oven.

Was this really a case of one person making a mistake or were there several people involved?

My father came to a theory that the sailboat was flooded by rain in the last few days and he just put it in the oven to dry.

But the oven is computer operated from a laptop only one person has.
Two man operation at least.

The sailboat wasn't even built by us.
