The office pranks heat up…
… so after I Post-It-Noted Mike’s desk (see a few blog posts below), he stuck a huge sign “Loser” on the back of my favourite player’s jersey which I hang on the wall behind me desk, Trevor Linden. So basically he put “Loser” where “Linden” is on the jersey. I didn’t notice for a couple days. OH IT’S GAME ON NOW, MIKE!Also, some of my coworkers got into my unlocked computer (yes I know, my fault), and sent out e-mails to various people in the company saying “My name is Allie and I suck at foos” just because I beat them at foosball that day 
.
So I had to get them back someone. I created an e-mail that appeared to have been sent to their boss (the Sound Director) and our HR director saying this:
Hi Jenn,
I’m really not impressed by the level of maturity that some of the people in your team are displaying. Not only is it unprofessional, but it is unethical for John and Glenn to be using my computer and sending e-mails from my account.
As much as I like them as people, I think they have crossed the line. I have also sent this to Winnie for disciplinary action.
I hope you both take the appropriate action.
Thanks,
Allie
And I got Jenn in on the joke and she pretended to have a word with them and get upset. They both came to my desk to apologize and I said, “Well, you should be sorry” in a deadpan voice. They both freaked out. So then Jenn and I ran by by their offices yelling “PUNKED!!!”. Hahaha. Needless to say they weren’t very happy
So of course I came in this morning to find an entire ball of tape wrapped around my mouse. LOL.
SO I ASK YOU, dear readers, what kind of pranks should I play on these miscreants?

If you guys have desk lamps with small bulbs, paint a bit of nail polish remover onto the light bulbs.
*click* *POP!*
There’s also filling someones office with balloons, or offer them a truce with a cup of coffee or tea as a peace offering. Of course, you have put some ink in there and they now have a smile only a redneck could love. Don’t put copier toner in though… that would kill them. Also, ask around at a pharmacy, there’s a harmless chemical you can get that has no side effects except making one extremely nauseous if they drink or smell alcohol.
Perfect for just before the weekend, as it lasts several days.

Mhh…. hide their monitors… or such things like that….. but I like the idea of the porn sound, very humiliating. Or hide the microwave/coffee machine. Have fun!

If I were them, I’d be reading your blog so I could head off things like this… :-p

I’m sure you’ll come up with some sneaky way of doing it… o:)

HAHAHA turn your pee blue…. LOL that’s awesome.

steal their mice and put them in strange places.
January 25th, 2007 at 2:28 pm
Well, if you happen to have one of those nifty vending machines with the sliding plastic doors, buy something, and when you pull out the item inside, replace it with something(s) from their desk. Good items are mice, car keys, wallets, cell phones. Then they have to purchase them back. If you’re wanting to be nice about it, in place of the things you took, you could leave a stack of quarters so they can get them back at no cost (other than shame). We did this to our boss last April Fool’s day after he Punkd us all.
Another option is put hundreds of post-it notes on their cube walls. I recommend the multi-color variety. Afterwards, completely line the cube walls with foil (and of course, wrap anything else in foil you deem fit). When they pull off the foil, thinking they’re going to be done with it, they have all those lovely post-it notes to deal with.

You might want to be carefull with that last one as the newer vending machines say ’sold out’ after they snap shut and won’t let you re-buy from the same slot.
A good joke.. hmm.. you could (don’t actually do it for real) put a post it note on their monitor saying you posted their direct email address on every forum with the header “Send all important balance issues here!”
:D

Well you could make excellent use of cable ties, using them to cable tie their mouse to the keyboard, or their bag/coat zipped up. Double sided sticky tape is excellent for sticking their phone receiver down or their filing cabinets shut.
And if you are any good with photoshop you could print up a nice picture of them sharing a tender kiss.

Hey, maybe you should steal their internet cord. That way although they can still work, they lose their internets. XD
Alternatively, and probably a better one, sneak onto their computers and change their desktops to something mischivious, let it be a picture of Pinky, or some scantly-clad woman so they freak out. XD
January 29th, 2007 at 2:12 pm
LOL… oh man, great ideas people.

You could take a screenshot of his desktop and put it as background ( if they have some programs open it will be better ), then hide the task bar and delete all the shorcuts ( if the prank its on the desktop ). that way the will think that the PC its locked. Also you could unplug the keyboard/mouse but that its optional

Sprinkle thier whole cubicle with glitter and perfume. That will get them in trouble at home… =)
February 5th, 2007 at 1:09 pm
This might take a while, but pop all the keys of their keyboards out and put them back in wierd placements, spelling out whatever you want or just random.
February 5th, 2007 at 1:11 pm
If you work in enclosed cubicle you can have the shipping department help you. You tape off the entrance, then fill thier whole entire cubicle with packing peanuts.

This one is gross but still hilarious. If they have laptops or a desktop pull up thier web browser and set this http://meatspin.com/ (warning…. DO NOT CLICK if you value your EYES) as thier homepage. Leave the browser on the desktop, maximized of course then put it to sleep or close the laptop. Then turn the volume of thier speaker ALL the way UP!
Then sit back and keep your ears open!

An easier one to do is if everyone in the office uses the same kind of computers. Just unplug and switch the two computers of the two victims.
