The tools of office sabotage are many my friend, the pranks are almost as
plentiful as the victims. If your resourceful you won’t even need this
little guide, but as for the rest of us. Let us delve down into the murky
depths of jokes, pranks, and things left unsaid.
April Fools Prank – 1: Do your co-workers lock their office supplies up,
they will next year if you’re still around. Lets start with their pens. Take
apart all the pens in your office and pull the ink tubes out of them. Re-
assemble and replace, they won’t get more than one or two letters written
before they run dry, again and again…
April Fools Prank – 2: “Still working on their pens.” Using a small pin or
even your stapler, open up all the pens and puncture the ink tubes in two
places one up high and one down low. Re-assemble and stay clear, these
little time bombs will ooz and leak at any given time.
April Fools Prank – 3: “Hi-life.” Get out your roll of clear tape and very
carefully wrap one piece of tape around the cap of each marker or
highlighter. Your co-workers will struggle just to get those caps off. I
even had some who just plain gave up.
April Fools Prank – 4: “Sideways Tele-marketing.” Do you have a co-worker
that is a real motor-mouth? Jump onto any website that offers to call you or
place a call for you, such as best-buy’s website, type in your co-workers
extension and viola, they are being called by the store.
April Fools Prank – 5: “Ergo-nightmaricle.” Make a few un-necessary
adjustments to some office chairs. Loosen arms, bind up wheels, remove a
wheel, tweak the hight, tilt, support adjustments.
April Fools Prank - 6: “Mrs. File.” File work order requests for engineering
and the IT department for some of your co-workers. Sighting strange and or
embarrassing requests for service.
April Fools Prank – 7: “Coffee addict?” Here is a fun one to drag out over a
good week or so. For 4 days switch the coffee to decaf, or if you have too
many people that pay too close attention to the details? (where they are, I
don’t know) but, if you do. Start by slowly changing the grounds mixture to
½ & ½ and then up it to 100% decaf, after a good 4 or 8 days worth of
drinking that, switch back to full regular and watch them go!
April Fools Prank – 8: “I strain.” Open up the control menu on the computer
monitors in your office and tweak them so they look slightly blurry, or dim,
generally hard to read.
April Fools Prank – 9: “In-security.” Is access to your co-workers computers
easy to get? Great. Find a rude, inappropriate joke and send it from your
coworkers computers to the boss.
April Fools Prank – 10: “If the shoe fits – frame it.” Last trick is the
hardest. Find yourself a patsy and frame them for all the other pranks.
