Funniest Coworker Prank You've Done....

[COWBOY]

The clip is kinda long, the good stuff doesn't start until about 1:00 in.  You gotta see this if you don't watch the office

LOL.  I love the Office (especially the prank episodes - my personal fav is the one where he puts nickels in dwights hand set over the course of a week and then takes them all out resulting in Dwight smacking himself with the phone.)

The result was about the same just minus the ring tune.  The high pitch ring made it sound like it was right next to him or even under the desk.  He literally took his cube apart even cutting into a "wall" that had a loose piece of fabric up top because he swore it was coming from there.   

One of the funniest days of work ever.

Sorry about the uber-derby izzzz  .  My internet has been less than stellar lately. 

Plus Lost is on.  Everything else - backburner

(firefighters have too much time on their hands and probably hands down have had the best pranks I have ever heard)

There are some classic ones that get redone on a continuous basis...some daily

Gold fish in the humidifier on the main O2 along with adamant denial makes psych Pt's cry  

wait for the guy that has 3 cups of coffee before his shift and put crickets in the maintenance hatch on his ambulance

Turn siren on and kill the Cole hersee is a great way to jump start the old timers when they start the engine

toss random hardware under an Engine and point it out the the mechanic, it will occupy him for hours

Staple sleeves closed on bunker gear, switch L & R boots to R & L, Freeze bunker gear, dog shit in gloves...etc etc

Use probie to demonstrate C-spine, spinal immobilization, and extremity taping techniques...leave probie in it and propped up on side of building for a few hours

when probie is done backing a rig without a backer, one guy lays under the rig and another freaks out "oh my god you just hit the LT"

Convinced a probie to jump off the roof into a snowbank, he did, he got stuck up to his shoulders, we left him there

Sealed Sup's POV with Evidence tape and had the police do a Evidence Siezure and Chain of custody report and left a copy on his desk

Toss a open condom wrapper in a married guys car and snicker when he says he and the wife are going to couples counseling because she is a lying whore


but a fine one that still makes me chuckle

we put flowers in one of the old timers hands who was asleep in a recliner

OUCH....I'm glad I don't work in your station!!  Although we have done the probie on the spine board trick quite often...

Once while in high school I was working at a pizza joint. One of the girls i worked with was constantly messing with my food. Hiding jalapenos in the pizzas I ordered, putting hot wing sauce in my drinks while I wasn't looking. I always let it slide. Never reacted. (Which really pissed her off.) I even finished a Sprite I had started though it was full of wing sauce. The last straw happened when I was not at work. My brother and sister ordered a pie to be delivered to our house.  This girl intercepted the order and spread a whole box of Nerds on the dough before the sauce. My siblings told me about it when I got home later.
So the next day I told the manager/owner what I wanted to do. He agreed with enthusiasm. The next time she was scheduled to work the boss took her out to stall..ur uh, pass out coupons. I was working and i called in a couple of guys who were off that day to come help me. We went out to the lot and commenced in wrapping her entire car with shrink wrap. Top to bottom, front to back. Sealed with a good bit of Vasaline. When she returned I could her her scream from the lot even though I was in the back of the store. i took her two hours to get it all off. I'll admit it wasn't the most creative prank. But it did have a great result.

Mess with me, I'm good. Mess with my family, your goin  down.

My 2 favorites...

Being in the AF new guys get messed with on a regular basis.  The first time I was stationed in Italy we had some old crappy Dodge trucks to use at work.  A great gag is to take three large zip-ties and put them on the drive shaft up in the channel so the loose ends flap and slap the channel.  Pretty funny seeing someone try and figure out where the sound is coming from as they drive but nothing when still...

While I was stationed in Louisiana we had a new guy that "knew it all".  I was running the night shift and he came to shift about a month after getting there.  The first night I asked the shift if anyone had done the "Air Quality Sample" for the month yet as it was the ~5th.  A couple guys say "uh, no" so I ask new guy to take care of it.  Since he wasn't sure what to do I send someone to train him.  They grab a garbage bag and go to the parking lot so new guy can capture enough air for a good sample.  He returns with a full bag of air and we explain all the documentation that needs to be done...Since the bio-environmental shop is dayshift only we left it in the breakroom for "dayshift to turn it".  Next day the bag is still there and new guy points out that it was not turned in, I act mad and tell him that another sample has to be taken since it must be less than 24 hours old.  So off he goes, fully trained in taking Air Samples.  Second bag filled, documentation complete again leaving for dayshift to turn in.  Again, next day and bag is still there and new guy kinda rolls his eyes at me like..."what does dayshift do all day".  I make up a story that they tried to turn it in but there was a problem in the readings.  I asked him if he used his hand to open the bag as sticking his hand inside to open it?  He says he may have and I tell him that was really stupid due to all the chemicals and oils on the skin it was lucky we weren't wearing our gas mask!  So off he goes to take another sample (3rd time, 3 days in a row).  Finally, out of excuses I show up early and get rid of the bag before new guy gets there.  About a month later we are sitting in a briefing and new guy makes a comment on how stupid it was and I tell him "about as stupid as taking an Air Quality Sample three days in a row..."  He learned his lesson about acting like he knew everything!

I sent an email out to a group of 20 about something serious, and I get this one guy who replies with a wise ass comment. I hit reply to his email and then copy and paste the names of everyone on his original reply. I write back "I can't believe you wrote that and hit "reply all".

He shit himself asking me my advice on what to do and how to craft an appology letter - I stopped him right before he sent out the apology and everyone procedded to laugh for about an hour.

There was a guy who would always hop in his truck, crank it up, and haul ass through 1st and slam it to 2nd out of the parking lot every day.
Never wore his seat belt either.

He hopped in the truck, took off as fast as he could in 1st, and slammed his foot down on the clutch (which happened to be taped to the brake pedal) and he went to stopping quick. Threw him into the windsheild too...

I was inspired so this is what I did this morning:

My coworker stepped away from his computer - I work in the financial services business, and we take security seriously, so you should always lock your computer before stepping away from it - he didn't. I changed his home page to www.nambla.org. 5 minutes later, when he opened IE he was very surprised. Everyone in the office chuckled.

But ten minutes later, I had a flash of genius. I went over to the compliance officer and ask him for his help. He walked in and asked my coworker why he just got a phone call from corporate security about him accessing unauthorized web sites on a work computer - all with a stone cold face. My buddy almost shit himself. The compliance guy left to let him stew for a minute. We finally gave up and told him hes out of the clear, only after letting him sweat for what seemed like an hour!!

There was some construction going on in my building so I grabbed a roll of construction tape. I ran out way to early though or it would have been much better.

I was hauling the anchor on the boat one day, and upon it's surfacing, discovered my hat had been tied to it.



Bastages.

That police tape thing reminded of a pic I found quite a few years ago.  It's been so long, I don't even remember the pretenses under which it occurred, but I figured it was worthy of this thread.  I think they even wrapped all the individual coins in foil.

In my teenage years I worked in grocery stores. Boring, menial work. The public on the whole is semi-retarded. Great place to prank co-workers though. Every new bagboy got this one. One of us would convince the new guy to do a "cycle count" on the dairy products in the dairy cooler,generally in the summer months when they are allowed to wear shorts and short sleeve shirts. Did I mention that the cooler is EXTREMELY cold? While said employee was thus engaged, we would keep them company, all the while standing at the open door of the cooler. The cooler has a thermostat located near the door and if you leave the door open long enough, it gets a false temperature reading. Anyways, once the new guy gets all the way to the back of the cooler, we slam the door shut, knowing the door will vacuum seal until the thermostat inside gets back to the "proper" temperature. Generally this results in some poor shmuck being stuck in there for about 5 minutes or so, freezing his junk off. This was all great until one day we took it too far. The new guy goes in... we stand outside the door... and my buddy holds a cigarrette lighter under the thermostat raising the temperature to a new high. 45 minutes later we managed to get the door open and the new guy immediately quit. Hey, it was just minimum wage, not like he was the CEO or anything.

I'm in the military, and you have to use your ID card to log into computers. You also need your ID to get onto base and get to work.

If you leave the shop (say, for a smoke break) with your ID still in the computer, it WILL get make the beast with two backsed with.

the ID? or the computer? I've witnessed... rather cheeky.. emails being sent out by folk who have left their seats unattended (and not locked)


and speakin' of prussian blue... we had this one night shift guy... a regular douchebag, mind you... someone (seriously, not me! honest!) blued the bottom of every latch on his rollaway toolbox one day...

and not blued, like, in order to check a sealing surface, blued... it was seriously slapped on there. like a whole tube.

and seriously, it wasn't me! I'm not that clever

the extent of my work shenenigans was completey duct-taping an apprentice's rollaway while he was on leave.




ok, so it was two rolls of tape...
