One of my co-workers is a saver. About 15 years ago, our insurance company used a new password each week to identify company representatives. About a year ago, my co-worker found a file with all the passwords. He showed it to all of us and we all agreed there was no reason to keep it, so he threw out the file.
We have a sales convention every year and a top management person would leave company-wide e-mails to update us on information for the convention. A couple of days after my co-worker threw out the file, I called a top manager who sends e-mails updating us on the annual sales convention and asked him to send a fake company-wide e-mail to my co-worker announcing that there would be a contest at the convention and the person who could recall the most company passwords from the old days would win.
My co-worker read the e-mail and came out of his office white as a sheet. We only let him suffer for a couple of hours before we told him the truth.

The president of the company where I used to work had a very efficient secretary. When she put a stack of letters on his desk to be signed he didn't read them, just signed each letter and sent them back to her. The office jokester slipped in a sheet with the president's resignation on it, and of course he signed it. The jokester had a good time with it and no harm came from it.

I do this to my wife occasionally when she drives and then need to run into a store while I wait in the car.
I've programmed a fax machine that had a "poll" mode to dial someone's extension every half hour.
I.T. people might appreciate this. Back when we used dumb terminals, I put a script in the scheduler to screw with a certain person's terminal at seemingly random times. Sometimes it would send a ^G (a beep) to the terminal. Other times it would cause the screen to flash. Other times it would turn on the audible key click on the keyboard.
At first, she thought something was wrong with her terminal. But the woman I did it to was a very meticulous person and after several weeks she came to me with a piece of paper that had a schedule of the dates and times of past beeps, flashes, and key clicks! She figured out it was done on purpose because there was a pattern to the times - I wasn't "random" enough I guess.
Turned his lips,tongue, and the entire inside of his mouth except his teeth bright blue. And it takes about 2 days to wear off.
I looked up what tht stuff is meant for. You're one mean dude. I like your style.
Classic!
Thanks, I am now cleaning Copehagen juice off my monitor!!!
That is WICKED!!! Any adverse health risks? When I looked it up it says to use a 1% solution... does it COME in a 1% solution or do you have to mix it up yourself?
details man, DETAILS!!
You can drive someone crazy by removing the little pizo-electric speaker and chip assembly from a singing greeting card and hiding it somewhere inside a co-workers desk. The cavities in the desk make it almost impossible to locate. It will take about two hours before the victim is ripping his/her desk apart to find the little ba$tard before they have to listen to "Jingle Bells" one more time. Its sort of like the chinese water torture, very funny to watch...
The reason we did this was because their theme/motto for the session was "The Challenge of Change". They were far from ammused because they too were partying late that nite and had to re-arrange the room very early the next morning to get it back to the way it was....we slept in :)
4th floor hallway has 3 doors accross from elevator with plastic signs mounted on them.
Stairs, Men and Women
Plastic signs slip into metal frame, all the same size.
They will not be in the same order on Friday April 1.
Have phillips screwdriver, will travel.
Yes, it comes in a 1% solution. You should be able to get it at any drug store. It's used for cold sores inside the mouth, because it gets down into the tissue and won't wash off.
OMG!!!!! LOL
When I was in college somebody got a copy of the housing letterhead and wrote a letter that said that the plumbing was being updated and that for two weeks only "liquid waste" could be flushed down the toilets. All "solid waste" was to be put into a small garbage bag and delivered to the front desk of the dorm. They made about 1000 copies of it and slid it under each door. It was so official looking I wouldn't doubt if somebody actually fell for it.
hmm, when I Googled it, the only things that came up was for use vaginally to treat yeast infections.
That's why I was curious if it had adverse health risks if you used it orally for a prank.
That's truly a sick one, I'm going to file that away for future use!
Every April Fools day someone in my office used to pull the same prank. He would leave one of those pink "While you were out" phone message slips in peoples message slots indicating that a Mr. Lyon had called. The return phone number indicated would be the phone number for the city zoo. The secretary at the zoo got so used to this she would would respond to the callers that Mr. Lyon was unavailable but Mr. Monkey and Mr. Rhino were there to take the call. At this point the victim would figure out that they had been had.
