April Fool's Day

This is probably one of my favorite days at work. April Fool’s Day is the one time that things just seem to be a bit funnier than normal. It could be the fact that we pull pranks usually on the boss. The one year we moved his furniture in his office (which he then kept that way!). One year we stole is Egyptian blow-up Mummy and held it ransom. One year we took a huge giant box and made it into a little house with a pool, a dog, and even dog poop! Last year, we did nothing to him, lulled him into a sense of security. Instead, we got our facilities coordinator by turning everything backwards on his desk.

 

Well, we continued this year on with the facilities coordinator, as he just also happens to be an April Fool’s baby. Yep, he was born on April Fool’s Day. So there are Happy Birthday signs with his picture on it all over the building. It’s quite festive and he is finding them everywhere. Yep, even in the men’s bathroom (and I didn’t put it in there!)

 

But we did return to pranking the boss. It was brilliant. We have ballooned his office. There are balloons on the floor of his office. We couldn’t use helium because we didn’t have the funding and we didn’t want any of them to get up into our skylights by accident. So, his office is filled with balloons of all shapes (and even two beach balls). There a lot of those punching ball balloons which I’m sure is going to end up hitting me in the head at least a few times today.

 

But the brilliance in this plan is even better. He is going to clean his office out and I know exactly what he is going to do with the balloons. They are going to go into someone else’s office. It couldn’t be better. One prank – two people.

And here I was going to change ring tones – this one is much better!
