How to Keep the Office Interesting by RodgerDodger on 22 Feb, 2008 09:39

Send email to the rest of the company telling them what you're doing. For example: "If anyone needs me, I'll be in the bathroom."
Put a chair facing a printer, sit there all day and tell people you're waiting for your document.
Every time someone asks you to do something, ask them if they want fries with that.
Page yourself over the intercom. (Don't disguise your voice.)
Come to work in your pajamas.
Find out where your boss shops and buy exactly the same outfits. Always wear them one day after your boss does. (This is especially effective if your boss is a different gender than you are.)
Make up nicknames for all your coworkers and refer to them only by these names. "That's a good point, Sparky." "No I'm sorry I'm going to have to disagree with you there, Chachi."
Include a piece of your children's artwork as a cover page for all reports that you write. (If you don't have children, draw stick figures yourself.)
Schedule meetings for 4:14 pm.
Put your garbage can on your desk. Label it "IN."
Include a personal note on every email you send. "On a personal note, I'm feeling a bit tired and grumpy today." "On a personal note, I'm pleased to announce that I got my highest score ever on Tetris last night."
Put up mosquito netting around your cubicle.
Rodger, Over and Out

I used to work for a company that would send out an email to the entire staff of 3000 + anytime someone would leave the company. It would become a big joke because maybe 30 people would actually know the person that left leaving the other 2970 people wondering why they even get the email. Well, one day I'm sitting at my desk and an email of the same fashion pops up. Then about 30 seconds later an attempt to recall the message pops up prompting me to actually read the first message. I wish I would have copied that email because it would have become a classic email to be sent around on the internet. Basically the guy wrote a spoof email stating why he left the company and detailing each reason which were really spoofs on the quirky things that they did in the company. One of the paragraphs was about him going insane from reading emails about people that he didn't know leaving the company. It was probably one of the funniest emails that I've ever read. True story! I could not make this stuff up.
About 24 hours later a "real" email was sent to the whole company detailing that this guy was "no longer" with the company. It's the one time that I've actually heard an entire building break out in laughter from the same email.
Moral of the story, make sure you don't CC an entire company when you spoof their ways and if you do, don't call attention to the email by trying to recall it. Recall DOES NOT work! -

Gotta share, again.
Today was a slammed day at work, and when I went to lunch I had to go pickup some toner for our big copier, which caused me to return a few minutes late. When I got back to my office, my door was shut and the lights were turned off. My phone was ringing, so I slung the door open, click the lights on, dropped the toners and saw the number ringing in and had to answer it... it was the corporate office. As soon as I put the phone to my ear, white lotion covered it. I held the phone away from my ear and sat in my chair because I had to look at something in the system. I went to slide my chair up using my right hand and under the armrest was more lotion which covered my hand. Seeing I had a issue that needed immediate attention, I had to smear this crap on my pants, then as I put my fingers on my keyboard, there was lotion caked on them and my mouse. This pissed me off, but I was cool on the call and said I have a computer issue and will call you right back. I quickly ran to the bathroom got paper towels and wiped off enough to do my job.
Turns out, 2 girls from downstairs decided to prank myself and the guy in the office next to me. So him and I discussed this and decided we needed to retaliate!!
So after the girls left today, I went and got some petroleum jelly, food coloring and clam juice. When I returned my co-worker had dis-assembled their chairs. I proceeded to cake their keyboards in the petroleum jelly, then wrap them in clear packing tape. We then took a straw and put the clam juice in their phone recievers at the mouth part. They have a red fighting fish in their office, and we changed the clear water to a deep dark blue, which will probably make him purple now.
Tomorrow will be interesting......
PS.. I did check the fish many times and he was just fine -
