Mistaken words: Sync vs Sink

This is an actual chat extract received by a friend at eBay. This engineer wants to convey that everyone is already at the meeting and my friend should also join.

"you should join
all are in sink here"

Is a hooker one that uses a hook?

My friend was playing 'God of War III' and there was this stage where Kratos was battling Hades. On killing Hades and acquiring the 'Claws of Hades' (enormous neon lighted, hook shaped claws), the player is awarded a trophy. It was amusing to watch the screen read "You've earned a trophy. Hooker".
Hooker trophy, really?
