April Fools Day Pranks
- Thread starter wordwiz
- Start date
Why wait for April 1st? At work we play pranks all the time.
Wait 'till someone walks away and rub grease on all of their tools or the handle of their box.
When someone is in "the office", fill the cheetah (air tank with a large spout and quick release valve used for seating the beads on tires), place the end of the nozzle under the bathroom door and hit the button.
*Disclaimer and Warning* If you have tiles on the floor, do this when the room is empty, so they don't get injured with flying tiles...
When I was a welder, we would tack each others tools to the work table.
Put their car on blocks, remove the wheels and hide them among 1400 tires in the stock room.
If they drive a pick-up, remove the tailgate and hide it in the bushes.
I have many more that I will have to post later, I have to go pick Ms. Ratman up.

Back in auto shop, we used to hook a car battery to a metal shop stool in the tool room and sit it on a rubber fender cover. When someone wanted a tool from the wall, we'd pluck it from the wall while sitting on the stool....
...whoever grabbed the tool got a hell of a shock.
good times.....good times....

I don't think I touched your post JayT, everything I merged was in this post http://www.thehotpepper.com/showthr...ols-Day-Pranks&p=331943&viewfull=1#post331943
If I did move it, it wasn't on purpose, THP should be able to tell from the logs.
: Looks around for stray posts :
Nope....not here!

I really don't care, and I thought maybe I was just drunk and never actually posted it, but it was the buttered floor prank that I posted about and there were several posts afterward mentioning it so I know it had to have been there at some point. So I must have posted it right?

I did see it as well, it reminded my of a youtube video where some dude keeps putting something on the floor and his room mate keeps going arse up.
I used to love playing practical jokes on others when I was still based in the maintenance depots.
As I've already said:
1. Leave note for boss to ring Doug Graves and have the phone number for the local cemetery.
2. Tell coworker someone called and wants a return call, the callers name was Barry Mundae (barramundi) have the phone number for the fisheries office.
3. I used to rub chilli around the lip of any cofee cups in the kitchen as well as soft (soda) cans in the fridge.
Others included
1. Putting talc on the tops of all the ceiling fans
2. Tying cable ties to the tail shaft of someones car
3. Putting sunscreen on the earpieces of desk phones
4. putting clear 'scoth' tape over the mouth and/or earpieces of phones
5. Rubbing the ink pad for stamps on the black desk drawer handles
6. Putting big huntsman's spiders in peoples work boots
7. Filling work boots with water and freezing them
8. Making fake correspondence from government departments for employees
One time someone tried to get me back and smeared the phone handset with ink around the earpiece. I noticed it and said nothing, later that day someone wanted to use the phone, use the one on my desk I say. When they got off the phone one side of their face had a long blue ink smear on it. Keeping a straight face as they left was hard, they had to go and meet some managers in the city. Weren't they cranky hen they got back.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
I usually prefer a more direct approach, but that has got to be the the funniest thing I've seen in a long while!!!
Nobody mentioned butter on the toilet seat...tsk tsk...
A fav when I was an apprentice was to get a plastic bottle like a juice bottle with a soft type cap - wide mouth bottle . The type if you jump on it it pops the lid with a 'pop' -- and fill it with oxy/acet mix from the gas bottles and cap it. The cap has a spark plug in it and pull a HT lead off a car and plug it in..... Need an earth but easy as with a large clip spot welded to the plug or jam it in somewhere Start car BOOM. No damage just loud noise and much hilarity.

Another classic gross one

I'm in trouble still... for sending out an email from an unlocked computer offering 'special couples counselling' for those who needed their sex life spiced up.. THANK GOD i start a new job in a months time!!!

Carefully pop off a few of the keys from the victim’s keyboard. Switch them around and replace them. If the victim is a “hunt and peck” typist
Before one of your family members takes shower, remove the shower head and place a life-saver candy in it, replace the shower head with the candy now trapped in it. When the person takes a shower he or she will not notice, until they get out and start to dry off the towel will stick to them they will get back in the shower to rinse off... works like a charm.
