In order to support the brinkmanship that will inevitably start on this thread, I'll start tame.
I once put a black sheet of paper between someone's computer screen and their anti-glare panel.
Unable to see what they were doing, they escalated to the IT dept. They too failed to get it to work, so brought up a spare. Then they took the anti-glare panel off the old screen and put it on the new one..."That's unusual, they're usually very reliable. I'll go and get another one."
I removed the paper when the victim bu99ered off for coffee and before screen 3 arrived...
...and put it back a week later Dr. Ian Malcolm:
"Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."

Jacked up the apprentice's car and put bricks just behind the wheels and then let it down, so the wheels were just off the ground. Thought his car was as it wasnt driving My D3 Build Thread

ok. so now that's done...
so joke number one,,,starting off gently...
several years ago i was working for a sales company to earn some extra dosh,,, the boss was a bit of a d ck so one day he was in a meeting, I nicked his car keys, ( it was below 0 outside by the way).
i drained ALL the screenwash out, replaced with milk,,, then pour'd warm water over the windscreen, a jar of cheap instant coffee later and his wind screen resembled toffee..
I proceeded to fill all the air vents up with holes from all the hole punch machines in the office.
I turned his blowers to full so when he turned the key... you get the idea,,
THEN i gaffa taped a frozen kipper to the engine near the blowers....
think about the sequence you'd follow on coming back to your car to find it like that and you get the idea... one wife.......livid

oh that's a good one wex.
number 2....
this was in the 90's...
a mate had an astra GTE, you know the one with the square exhaust,,,, he was dead proud of it,,,,,
while he was at work on his birthday we got a skip in, hired a crane to put the car in the skip...
we then took a picture on a polaroid, put it in a birthday card and had a florist deliver him some flowers in his office,,,,
we did send the crane away BTW.....
his face is a site i'll NEVER forget.... one wife.......livid

tapped some of that Icelandic freeze dried fish to the back of a radiator in the office I was leaving - still smelled 5 years later when I went back for a meeting Duncan

whilst at 6th Form college we bumped one fellow pupils pride-and-joy (Hillman Avenger) out of the school top car park onto the grass next to it at break time - he was not best please.
May be adam will remember that one
Everyone involved with IT must have taped up a Mouse Ball. Or swapped a few keys round on a keyboard.
A more recent one - in our office there are some two foot by 18 inch riser cupboard spaces running floor to ceiling with a wardrobe like door on them - use to run cables between floors.
One of guys climbed in one and when we were introducing a newby round the office, opened the door and said "THIS IS MIKE IN HIS OFFICE" and shut the door on him and moved on to the next person with a complete deadpan faceSteve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
