1. Call phone-sex numbers and transfer the calls at random.
2. Write a coworker's initials in White-Out on the photocopier.
3. See how long you can hide a paper bag full of tuna fish in the back of the refrigerator before someone notices it. (Writing someone else's name on the bag goes without saying.)
4. Put a fake rubber hand in your sleeve, and when a secretary walks by, stick the hand in a paper shredder and scream.
5. Conduct all correspondence with your friend in the next office via Federal Express early-morning next-day delivery.
6. Dial the phone number of the guy in the next cubicle whenever he walks away from his desk. Hang up before he can run back to answer it. Repeat often.

thats all for now

I post and browse the forums at XDTalk.com

In fact, I do ALL of my posting and reading at work.

Switch the "M" and "N" keys on someones keyboard.

Change the sound settings for their computer startup and shutdown to something stupid and LOUD!

If you're in IT, load "PC Anywhere" or similar software on someones PC and set it to run on startup. When they log in and start working, make their mouse pointer do wierd things. Or wait until they're typing then hold down a letter until they smack their keyboard. The hard part is keeping a straight face when they come to you for help.

Page your coworker and have him call his own extension.

A friend of mine had done this to his own computer. He changed the noise for an error message. It worked out well until the owner of the company was looking over his shoulder, an error message popped, and the computer whispered "Your balls are showing"......

Take all the paper holes out of the hole punch then put them in a folded piece of paper, wind it up in a rubber band set it up in a desk drawer so that when they open the drawer paper dots go all over.

If someone has the old type of desk wire the side drawers lock so that they can open the center desk drawer but couldn't open the side drawers

Change the regular coffee with decaf but keep it in the regular can and watch them have DT all day.

Same friend who had the problem after he changed the error message on his computer did something like this. He took all of the dots and dumped them down a co-workers heating vents in his vehicle. The guy got in his car, turned on the air, and POOF....dots everywhere!

WOW--some of these ideas are downright hillarious!

I thought I had tried them all.....I was wrong!
