Who likes Lance Armstrong?

I don't.

Especially this one:



Yes, that is a life-size cut out of Lance Armstrong. 
Yup, that's my office.
Uh huh, I almost had a heart attack this morning.

He's the joke of the office.  Most of the time, he stays in storage, or out in the market in a display.  But this week, he has made rounds through the office.  A prankster here likes to leave him around corners and in dark rooms to scare the person entering.

He's one prank away from going through my paper shredder one limb at a time...

Does your office have a prankster?  Lunch stealer? Walking farter?

    Most of the pranksters have either retired or left for other jobs.

    One guy used to throw footballs at you when you sit at your desk, I do admit he gave a bit of notice prior to throwing.

    other stuff is team effort, we filled someone's office with computer monitors - you could walk in there- for their birthday. There was a birthday messgae on the screens.

    The girl who eats everyone's food and causes fights is out of the office all week.  It makes me HAPPY!

    I would say I am my office prankster...but I only prank those I have a good relationship with who I know will enjoy it. My previous boss and I would go back and fourth on things: I've popped off his keys on his keyboard and moved them around - he's put random things in my office. Nothing harmful or upsetting in any way...just good 'ol fun.

    Cate - that would drive me nuts if a coworker ate my food regularly. How did you find out who it was?

    She admitted it!  Well, some if it anyway.  And it miraculously stops when she's not in the office.  I wasn't there when she admitted it, but apparently she simply said no one's name was on it so she just ate it.  Seriously! 

    She's a massive headache in general.  She's out of the office all week, which makes me happy.  She has told me that she doesn't understand how I can love someone "whose job is to kill people". Yeah... that didn't go over well with me. I had to bite back some rather nasty responses.

    Anyway, I like fun pranks like setting up Lance Armstrong - that's too funny!  My colleagues will play jokes on each other occasionally, but nothing serious.  I'll actually be out of the office for April Fools Day, so that's a good thing!

    DUDE! I totally would have ninja chopped that cut-out and taken his head off in fear, if I walked into my office with him in there.  But that's just b/c I'm hardcore;)

    And as for my office, I'm the only one here...so yeah...

    My office is so boring. No one does anything fun or cool. And there isn't even a consistent food stealer. Honestly, what I hate most about my office is the lack of personality. Everyone is too serious.

    You can have my 83 year old boss with the walking farts.

    He can be quite a firecracker.

    The technicians that I work with have a stuffed rattlesnake. That is our usual prank on the secretaries. They have pretty good personalities and always make things fun.

    For the walking farter, that award would have to go to Kathryn. She is the most annoying person in my building. She talks way too much in the most monotone voice she can manage. She is a 45 year old virgin, seriously.

    Scott always says he is going to steal my food, but he never has so I don't know if he really is a food theif or just has the reputation.

    The rest of my building are just boring quiet engineers who sit at their computers all day making pretty pictures.

    The last office I worked in had two very serious people in it, and three (plus little old student assistant me) who enjoyed the lighter side of things.  The guys and I used to do some pretty ridiculous things to each other (there were some awards given for some...er, interesting things).  And then I found this on the internet, and think it needs to be shared.
