Office pranks

[Infernal]

So, what do guys do to keep yourselves entertained during those long, boring office days?

We have a snack guy who comes and refills our snack "box" (I guess we can't afford a real snack machine) every two weeks. He usually puts in 3 or 4 pop tarts, and for a while, people were literally fighting over them. [img]smile.gif[/img]

So sad...

Well, our AA (administrative assistant) loves the things for some reason, so I've taken to buying them all the second the guy arrives to refill the box, since my office is right near the kitchen. Then I just let them sit on my desk and never eat them. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Today I took it a step further and emailed her this:

She has already asked me for one, but I'm sticking to my demands. [img]smile.gif[/img]

that link is awesome!
personally, what you should do is freeze a can of shaving cream (i think the foam works best), cut off the one end (while its still frozen) and stick it in a locker or desk drawer... as it thaws out, itll expand and fill up the orafice... hilarity ensues...

That is one AWESOME mustache. Is it real?

[shenanigans]

that sounds wierd calling it an orafice...

As for pranks we do tons of stuff. I work at a movie theater so we get tons of movie promo crap every day. And on top of that we have a huge lost and found.

Our boss is kind of jumpy so we will put up crap like life size standees of people in his office up in projection will do it around corners so you will be walking by yourself walk around a corner and see it and usually makes you jump.

When I am board I like to call the theatre line and when the box office employee picks it up I will transfer it to the phone recording, I will do this over and over. A co-worker before he transfered knew how to call another theatre in our chain then call our box office then connect the lines so both phones would ring both employees would answer and say the stupid sayings they have to say when they answer the phone at the same time.

If your working projection and ushers are cleaning theatres, I sometimes shut all the lights including the floor lights down. A theatre with no lights on is the darkest thing in the world since the walls are designed to abosorb light, and there are no windows or any sources of light. You cannot see your hand 2 in from your face.

In one of our saferooms its adjacent to a built in wall style desk, if you open the drawars(heavy duty) on the desk they can't open the door and get out of the little saferoom(size of a port-a-body) and we laugh because you can see the person getting frustrated on a security camara.


Sometimes to mess with other males-managers, if they need a pair of scissors or something and we only have one pair thats locatable another male manager will pick them up and set them on his crotch and be like. They are right here. NO one picks them up but its frustrating when you need them but you are not gonna touch a dude;s crotch for them. haven't thought about risking sexual harrassment to try it on chicks yet [img]smile.gif[/img]


And we just all around make fun of each other all the time. Me and 2 other managers and my boss are always joking about banging each others wives/girlfriends and moms and such. We are too the point me and the 2 managers are planning to go to our bosses house, when he is working just before the end of the shift, wait there till he drives home, as he pulls into the driveway pull out and wave, like we were just finishing up with his wife.

And many other stupid things... like mess with someone when they are on the phone with a customer, or when they are doing computer work or typing an e-mail walk up and kick the little hydraulic thing on their chair so they sink to the bottom setting. Just small stuff.

As for lost an found, we always have fun with old people's glasses and just other random crap we find in there.

We definitley screw around and get in more trouble then we do work at my place.

Advantage of having 18 managers... head boss is like 32, we have one older dude thats like 40. Everyone else is 18-26. And we have ~120 staff, they are roughly 16-24 age group, we jsut hired a bunch and I heard we hired a few old people but not many. SO its generally a group willing to screw around.

Had him sweatin' it for 2hrs until he called Outbound assignments to confirm [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]

Back when I worked at a car lot, all the salesman would unmercifully torment our sales manger (all in good fun). Everyday he'd get at least 2 or 3 "phone call"

We'd dial into something like 1-800-wet-studs or 1-800-fat-girls, then transffer it into his office. This went on for like 2 or 3 months before it got old.

He'd come running out of his office to try to catch someone hanging up the phone or coming out of their own office. He didn't realize everyone was in on it. We even had the receptionist getting into it.

I work with 2 guys and we all went to different colleges, so we are always joking around about what school is better. One day both of the guys were late for work, so I got on their computers and changed everything to my college's stuff. Made their homepages go to Mizzou, everytime they used the mouse to click on something, the Mizzou fight song would play, etc.

It was funny because they don't know enough about computers to fix it all. It took them a few weeks to find someone that had time to come fix it for them. They aren't late for work anymore either.

I came back from a job with two of my friends, to find all three of our cars filled with paper shreddings. My car was then saran wrapped, and my buddy's car had a guy duct taped to the steering wheel. The next week somebody left their truck too close to the building, so it got packed up on a pallet and was ready to be picked up to get shipped somewhere. Most of the time though, when somebody leaves their computer unlocked (compusec violation), we usually just but a couple of guys kissing as their background, set some gay noises for different events, and then send an email to the whole shop that they're going to be having a homosexual get together over the weekend or something like that

my co worker and I hide the other clerks nicorette gum out of his backpack that he brings into the Hub.

God he TWEEKS out when he doesn't get his nicotine gum because he's trying to quit smoking and now he is seemingly addicted to the damn gum! [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]
