April Fools Day Pranks?

When my hubby showed up to work this morning, the girls at the office were outside with a police officer & the front of our office was wrapped in the yellow police tape...Our secretary told him that the building had been broken in to and they had taken everything... turns out the police officer was one of her relatives. Boy did they get him good... (I think he will be installing that security system soon!)

One of the guys in my crew had arrainged for a sub to work for him yesterday. A few weeks ago he had a different guy subbing who failed to show up, so when I phoned him about 08h00 (AWOL is 07h30) to ask if he was coming in, he swallowed it hook, line and sinker. He assured me he had reminded the sub a couple of days ago and didn't understand how this could happen again. A few minutes later, the sub's cell phone rang and that fellow played right along, apologizing profusely etc. until the our laughter in the background gave the game away...

I sat down in my office yesterday and went through my messages. I started with the one highlited, "call Mr.Lyon very urgent!!" Complete with a phone numer that was out of our area. I dialed the number with anxiety mounting, my heart pounding, The woman on the other end answered,"Minneapolis zoo, how can I help you?" Then I found out my Dad was behind it, wait until next year!!!

On April 1, 1994 I came up with the perfect prank: I proposed to my girlfriend. Been married ever since.

If you have someone who is a two or three finger typer, pop off and switch the R and the T keys on the keyboard. One of my victims actually called a ticket in to the help desk because his password wouldn't work and automatically disabled his account after his third attempt. The other thing that was done, was for everybody in one department to park around the side of the building and leave a voice mail message on the supervisor's phone that they wouldn't make it in.

Here's a few, I believe they were in Maxim awhile back:

- Freeze a can of shaving cream. The can will split and you can remove the frozen blob of compressed cream. Place in drawer of desk and wait for it to return to room temperature.

- Subscribe a coworker to embarassing pamphlets like: "How to guides for self removing hemmoroids" or "Working your way into the gay midget singles scene"

- If the coworker has a cloth covered chair, soak it with tobasco sauce. It remains in the fabric and will soak through their clothes and burn their butt!

This is one of my favorites though:

Install a wireless mouse on their computer and leave their old mouse on the desk. From a nearby spot control their mouse everytime they go to use it.
