I've been sitting here cracking up, hillarious stuff!

Getting ready to set jelly in the desk drawers of a guy at work (we'll fill them up right to the top).

Recently made a friend a bday cake at work - got about 10 tins of tinnned corned beef emptied them in a cake tin, and then I put icing on top, looked real until people smelt or even tasted it! Awesome stuff!

vaseline on the ear piece of someone else's phone, leaves a nice whisp of vaseline coming out of their ear.

join all the paper clips together, when they need one in a hurry, they get the lot!

Offer to get someone a drink of OJ, and substitute a large dose of metamucil - keeps em regular for days.

Leave a message for a colleague, number for the Cemetry, and the contact name Myra Mains;

Substitute sugar for salt, and vice versa...

I don't drink coffee, so i like occasionally emptying the sugar jar out at work and filling it with salt !, nothing like a salty coffee huh ? ..lol

another good 1 for getting bosses that lean back on their chairs is ...
some basic electronics / bluetack, a 9v battery , a 100v capacitor , a mercury switch and 2 thin metal wires/prongs. (this setup is to be mounted under a padded/material chair with bluetack) Hook the battery to charge the capacitor, ground 1 side of the capacitor to a thin bit of wire and feed that wire through the back of the seat until it just sits under the seating surface, mount the mercury switch on a 45 degree'ish angle and connect 1 end to the other side of the capacitor and hook the other prong/wire to the end of the mercury switch , feed the wire into the seat as you did the other wire , leaving them about at least 1" apart . Make sure the wires are fed to around the centre area of the chair just under the surface.
When the boss leans back the mercury switch makes contact and dumps a shock into ya bosses butt :hihi: .. lol .

Two different ones. One was my Dad and one from me.
When my Dad was doing his apprenticeship his boss sent him out for a left handed hammer. When my Dad came back 4 hours later the boss was angry and confused. Eventually my Dad owned up that he had known all along that there was no such thing as a left handed hammer so he went home and had a sleep.

When I started working, I was sent out for a left handed screwdriver (there is no originality in the world!) I came back with a left handed set of Wiss-snips (gee, I'm sorry, are you sure you said screwdriver and not snips?)and an account that the boss was VERY unhappy about having to pay.

Back in the day working at BiLo a group of mates and I were rebels and a half!!!!
Pallets of Toilet paper and tissue wheeled down the aisle and we would throw ourselves into them.(bloody jackass rotted our brains)
When a load of say 16 pallets would be delivered to our store the first 30min we would be racing on top of the pallets from one end of the store room to the other!
Poking holes in the meat and hiding it amongst the shelves was quite common, so to was putting matchbox cars in orange juice bottles and peanut butter jars.

The one that truely captures our 'rebelness' is the day we took an energy drink each drunk half of it then topped it with our .... ............yep you guessed it urine.... The next shift came round and the drinks had disappeared!!!!

Filling peoples gloves with black sillicone is always funny.


One time a guy would ring the factory phone and wait for the leading hand to go and answer it, then hang it up right when he picked it up. He would spend 30 seconds saying hello over and over again. Then repeat it another 5 times with the guy going nuts and wondering why the person on the other end wouldn't talk.

A good one for phones with conference call facilities is to call one internal extension, then quickly call a second one. If you're lucky they both pick up about the same time...
"Hello"
"Hello"
-- silence --
"Can I help you?"
"You called me"
"No I didn't you called me"
"Err.. no. You called me."
etc etc etc...

Hamish and Andy did something like that with 2 phone sex line workers. They were both trying to do their thing before it turned into the who phoned who bit and they both realised they had been dudded. That was hilarious.

1. When I worked at safeways I grabbed a rubber snake off the shelf and put it in the cash register just before I finished my shift. The supervisor went to count it and opened up the register to find a black rubber snake in there. Her scream was louder than the PA system in the store. I didnt stop laughing for a few days...... I wasnt very popular for a while after that.

2. The supervisor was standing at the service desk so through a toy spider in front of her as if it had fallen from the roof. The next thing i know is that papers a flying everywhere and women are screaming and running around like headless chooks. Again, I was laughing very hard for a long time, and i got called some names that i dont think should have been said in the middle of a supermarket..

this stuff is gold.
I had a boss who was a cheeky ****. It was my first job and I was doing administration.
So first thing in the morning i would sit down and check my desk
so on the desk was a folded bit of a4 paper with the writing:
Dear Sam,
here are those perscriptions you asked me about
regards Bevin

and he had highlited the VIAGRA part on an online pharmacy list the ****.

another one was i have a drink in a glass bottle and me mate adrian stuck some chocolate shavings in it (well they look like wood shavings or cocoroach POOP) and i have taken a swig of it and nearly choked on it

so i found his chocolate tin with the shavings in it and poured all my water in the tin *heh*
then it was on from here, he glued all my tools to the tool bench with wood glue
so i painted the handles of his tools with black spray paint etc etc. was funny till i cracked LOL

1. Select victim's toolbox.
2. Peel back a corner of a sticker from the back of it.
3. Drillhole and screw in grease nipple.
4. Connect pnuematic grease gun and empty in about 40kg of grease.
5. Remove nipple, reapply sticker and wait.

Also good is to do a couple of tack welds on back of box to bench top, and watch the poor bugger try and lift it.

Or if you like, fill the key hole(s) with locktite.

OR , if you are a real nasty bugger, combine all of the above.

hehe this goes back to when i was a first year apprentice

my boss told me to go to the local paint shop to get some rainbow paint

i said no worries ( the paint shop was owned by on of my uncles ) i proceeded to the shop and told him what was happening

he then mixed up the paint for me

i returned to the workshop to see the boss and all the other guys laughing thier heads of

my boss soon stopped laughing when he saw the $500 dollar bill for the paint 4 ltrs

so i got him on that one

I sometimes get the mic for the PA in the div van, jam it between the seat and the closed drivers door with the transmitter button pressed. This will stop the siren from working when it is pressed. At the same time you turn the sirens on. The un suspecting driver opens the door of the van and the sirens go off!! Good for night shift :

Ive cable tied the horn button down on the trucks at work. When the drivers start early in the morning when its dark, they turn the ignition on and get the fright of their lives.
I did this to one of the tradesman at work.
When they are working on a pretty big job and they have nuts and bolts everywhere, throw in a few extras.
When they finish the job and they have 'spares', you'll have em scratching their head for hours.
Good laugh
