Office pranks - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

Scott's Birthday balloons reminded me of a couple cubicle pranks I have been indirect party to in the past, and I am sure there are other good ones other people have...

Replace the opening to a cubicle with a solid panel. The victim actually liked it sort of. He found a milk crate to climb in and just stood on the desk to jump out. Got a ton of work done with no "drive by" annoyances.

Cover opening to a cubicle with plastic & packing tape and then fill cubicle with packing peanuts. This was funny, but did not go as well for the victim or culprits. Clean up was a bitch.

We played with moving the flat surfaces in a cubicle up or down a couple inches or so, but all the crap piled on them made it way to labor intensive for practical use.

Tinfoil everything?

The bigger prank though for her is having to sit across from that breathy gay dude.

I usually go for the basic tape under the mouse laser gag or the unplug the monitor but tape up the cord so it looks plugged in gag. I rearranged an engineers keyboard so the third row spelled out 'gayporn', that was good but he left it that way for a few months, when he got layed off I had to sneek and put the keys back to normal.

My shop here in Iraq are a buch of pranksters, and since we're 24 hour ops there is a little animosity between our day and night shifts. If anyone leaves their gear, be it their uniform top, hat or kevlar, it will get stuffed in to something extremely small like a 2" PVC elbow then soaked and frozen. Lately people have been freezing other's uniform tops to pipe wrenches and freezing them, making lolipops. You can't just throw them in the microwave due to the wrench and if you pull them off they tear the shit out of the fabric.

Also, we're huge fans of covering one another's locker in plastic wrap or tin foil.

LOL lollypops. What a great prank.

We've done the cover the desk with post-it notes and a complete aluminum foil wrap too. It was fun to see everything wrapped in foil.

When our bosses returned from Hawaii, we all dressed in shorts, flip-flops and hawaiian shirts.

Once when I was gone a some of my pictures were stashed and I had to do a scavenger hunt to find them. Turns out they were hidden in the boss's office. It was weird hunting in there.

Back when I was XO for the JROTC battalion at my high school, myself and another one of my officers jello'd our admin officers' hole punch.

Back in my UPS days, there were several good jokes played. So, I will just give a few highlights.

Our cubicles had overhead bins that had doors that opened upward. I worked in the I.E. Dept. and we put together several reports that went into binders. I spent six months collecting dots from the 3 hole punches. I fabricated a shelf/tray out of cardboard and taped it to the backside of the door to the overheard bin. When my coworker opened his bin, it snowed on him. There was an inch of accumulation on his desk, keyboard, and pretty much everything else.

My boss was a huge Cubs fan. There were framed Sammy Sosa poster all over the office. He happened to be on vacation the week that Sosa had the corked bat episode. I went online and found a Cubs logo and changed it to say "Cork". This was not the easiest thing to do using MS Paint. I then replaced all the Cubs logos on all of the posters and other things with the new logo. I even went through the trouble of distorting the logo to cover the cubs logo on Sosa's jersey. He wasn't real happy when he got back.

We had a rather large guy who worked in the office. One night he took the handset of one of our coworker's phone, unzipped his pants, and shoved the handset in. We took a photo of him standing in front of the coworker's desk with the phone in his pants and emailed it to the coworker. As soon as he got back to his desk, I called him to ask him if he got the "report" I had sent him.

marleyjb · 2009-11-03, 05:02 PM

oh, and I forgot to mention that I pee'd a little in my pants when I fell on the floor when I heard from across the office, "What the..."and the handset hit the desk.

I love how you felt the need to tell everyone that you pee'd in your pants.

That's a good one!

Jon seems to have failed to mention that it was he who worked at UPS and not me (his wife and the one with her name on this account). I do not tell people when I pee my pants

But it's so fun when you can't tell them apart.
