Top 10 Office Pranks
July 15th, 2008 | by Simon RattrayBoredom afflicts all of us at some point in the office. To overcome it, we have compiled a list of the top 10 office pranks. I’ve tried some of these myself…
1. Wait until a colleague leaves their desk and then access their company email. This can take the form of emailing another colleague asking them out for a drink, try a married one.
2. Put a sticky label over an infra red mouse sensor. It renders it unuasable, but it usually takes ages for the person to find out why it doesnt work.
3. When a colleague comes back from lunch, say the boss wants to see them immediately about something urgent. See if they go in and what they say to their boss when they go in their office uninvited.
4. Change the language on a mobile phone to Suomi. Very hard to reset.
5. If you can lift the keys on a keyboard, swap them ALL round, takes ages to fix.
6. Selotape a banana skin under their desk, wait for the aroma to spread.
7. Get 20 cups of water and staple them all together on your colleagues desk. How you gonna move them?
8. Keep “one belling” their phone from across the office.
9. Change the contents of the coffee jar to decaf.
10. Use AUTOCORRECT on MS-word to automatically change certain words, try expletives.
