office pranks

ooh sorry man I was at lunch. Sure i'll tell you, this is all part of Operation Mayhem, and the sooner we get to the part where we blow up the credit card companies, better

(edited, i forgot the //, sorry!)

If a coworker receives a package like a computer (or any expensive, critical equipment) at work, make up a slip of paper that says "DEFECTIVE MERCHANDISE - DO NOT SHIP" with the computer maker's logo and a barcode. Then slip it inside the box (exposed handle cutouts work, or you can slit a portion of the packing tape).

Works like a charm

TY!!!!

One funny thing you can do, albeit wasteful, is if you're handy with deconstructing office equipment, go about slicing pencils into tiny slivers and put the remnants back into their original places. Also, take apart the staplers and other pieces of machinery, and leave the heaps of metal where you found them. Arrange the trails of separated staples into cryptic messages. Cut papers (not actual work but something that appears close enough to the original) into bite-sized squares and make a little sandcastle in the center with a cute miniature shovel stuck in it. Then, with a magic marker, write this backwards on a sign:



Surreal times.

Clear tape over the mouseball is my favourite but nowadays people catch on quick to that. Adjusting the settings on every chair in the office is fun too (especially when some people don't realize it and they are sitting really low or really high for hours).

Trimda once changed all the colours on my windows to white. And I mean EVERY colour. It was just a solid white screen.

So I got him back by turning on Accessibility options so he had to hold down a key for 5 seconds before it would register. But - I forgot that I did this and CTRL-ALT-DEL wouldn't work (unless you held it down for 5 seconds) and he almost had to reformat his machine.

I found this little gem once. It slips into Microsoft Word and replaces the Clippy the Paperclip Assistant. The new and improved Clippy will spout out useless hints every minute, and cannot be gotten rid of by your victim (unless you show them how, after they beg you for mercy.) You can even configure a text file to have custom hints, which means that the possibilities for hilarity are limited only by your sick mind.
