Default Is it really called a "can"...

it's probably their term for the "sign out book"..
never heard it before.. after 35 years and dozens of rental FBOs

Or are the guys at the FBO just f'ing with me?

The thing with the keys, paperwork, hobbs logs, etc. for a rental
aircraft.

What's the origin of this term? Google searches lead to nothing but other
senses of the word "can" and online slang / dictionaries have nothing
either.
Is it an acronym? How pervasive is the term? Where does it come from?

Past the can...
