What questions do YOU ask your new partners to keep things alive and not dry during a 24 hr shift?
 
What got them interested in the job.
 
What... is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?
 
Boxers or briefs??
 
Usually my first question is what do you want to get for lunch?

Nothing! Oh, wait? We aren't suppose to answer that here. :p

I usually just introduce myself. During down time, I might ask them how long they have been working here and if they plan on doing anything beyond what they are doing. If I see something I like eg food place or something interesting, I'll point it out. For the most part, I consider silence therapeutic too. Don't need to talk the entire shift.
 
Are you a Pulp Fiction, or Blade Runner kinda person?

I got dog and cat do you like horses?

I honestly do not like the whole "tell me about yourself" as a intro. But it's a good ice breaker.
I usually ask about experience and goals (fire, nursing, medic) ect.
I also don't mind silence and just listening to the radio

You sound like a fun partner ;)
 
When training first timers, I usually tell them that the FNGs buy lunch.
