01Having fun at work
Filed Under (me) by katie on 01-07-2008
I love the people I work with. They are great and I get along with all of them so well. We work hard and we get a lot done, but we have a lot of fun too. We play a lot of jokes on each other too.
A while ago, they played a pretty good prank on me. I stepped away from my desk for a little bit and when I come back, I didn’t realize anything had happened, when all of the sudden I heard my cell phone ringing. I looked in my drawers and around my desk and couldn’t find it anywhere. I ran to the other side of our office to see if my friends had taken it and couldn’t find it. It kept ringing and ringing and I couldn’t find it. At this point, my friends had started to watch me search for my phone, laughing. I knew it was Jim and Ian, I just couldn’t prove it and couldn’t get out of them where my phone was hidden. Then, I heard it again, ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing… Finally after franticly searching, my friend Andrea told me to look up. It kept ringing and I didn’t understand what she wanted me to do. She said, look up. Finally I discovered that they had put my phone in the ceiling. So after a little bit of complaining I convinced Ian to get it out of the ceiling for me. I thought it was all over… but it was just the beginning. During all my searching for my phone, I had failed to lock my computer and they changed my autocorrect things in Microsoft. When I typed my, it changed to “my favorite MarCom, Jim Easley.” When I typed Easy Dental, it changed to “Cheesy Dental.” When I type at it changed to “at the funny farm.” And so many more. I spent the longest time going through my autocorrect things trying to find all the words they had changed. It was the biggest pain, but so funny.
Numerous pranks have ensued since then, but Andrea and I pulled a pretty good one on Ian and Ryan. Here are some pictures:
-
- Ian thought he was so smart
-
- He locked all his stuff up while he was gone
-
- We tin foiled the whole desk
-
- Every Inch
-
- We didn't want to scratch his monitors
-
- You can see Ryan's name through the foil
-
- I look like an old lady
-
- I work the look well
-
- Andrea Loves Having Her Picture Taken
-
- Travis did not want his picture taken
-
- Andrea is strange. That's why we like her
We don’t just play pranks on each other though. There are other times where we just laugh, goof around and have fun. Today they had me put on a wig we have at work (it’s the hair for our department dummy — strange, I know).
yes i am strange, but in good company at work. we do have a good time at work don’t we. . .
Haha you guys are hilarious.. I’m going to move my desk up to your area? Ok? That will make the day go by faster!
There is not one thing I dislike about this post. I am trying to think how funny it would be to break into somebody’s office and tin-foil their desk…..you’ve inspired me!
Your pranks remind of the one on the shop “The Office”. Have you seen it? You should but something of Ian or Ryan’s in Jello….jk. Sounds like a fun place to work.
That totally sounds like Tyler’s office. They have been trying to get to one guy’s auto correct thing for a while now, but he is pretty good about locking his computer. Some day though…
Hehehehe… I love this pictures! I laughed and laughed! Good work!
