Over on the "post here if..." thread, we have a member who needs ideas for things to do at work for fun.

Here are some suggestions, any body have any more?

Why yes SpringfieldXD.40, we can. Try these goofin off actions at work for some great fun:
1.) whoopee cushion the bosses chair.
2.) switch the decaf coffee with caffeinated
3.) unplug the pop machine
4.) stick a out of order sign on the snack machine
5.) stick out of order signs on all the mens bathrooms in your building
6.) set up a desk and chair in your elevator, with a phone.
7.) make a tape outline of a body in front of your HR persons office
8.) unplug everyones computer monitors
9.) Glue somebody coffee cup to their desk
10.) hide some important folders
11.) make up a fake "police folder" outlining a murder mystery at your office and leave it in the lunch room.
12.) have flowers delivered to somebody in your office, red roses to be exact. If the flowers are delivered to a male, have the flowers come from a male, with a card saying they enjoyed last night immensely
13.) Go up to somebody's office and start measuring it, when the office person who resides there asks what your doing, tell them you just want to get ready for when you move into their office, tell them your sorry to see them go......
14.) Steal a for sale sign and put it in front of your building

I took shoe polish and wrote "for sale" on someones car window once and listed a CHEAP price along with their cell phone number. They got calls all day a work asking about their car out in the parking lot thats for sale.

One time I called the classified adds for the paper and listed someones dog "free to good home".

ummmm...
have female friend call and ask the receptionist about the job opening (their position).

rearrange someones office while they are gone.

Have a friend call your wife at home while you and the friend are on the same phone line at work. When the wife answers have the friend ask for you. The wife will say you are at work, and you jump in with "honey I'v got it". The wife will go nuts tring to find you at home.

Get in early and forward all of the office's phone to that one person in the office with the shortest fuse about taking anyone elses calls.

Vaseline on the earpiece of the phone.

Take a bunch of pieces of dental floss and tie them to every loose object on someones desk then run the floss behind the desk and tie it to their chair. When they pull the chair out to sit down stuff on their desk flys everywhere.

Take a screenshot of the operating system desktop, hide the icons, and set the screenshot to be the background. It looks just like their computer, but nothing works.
