ack-ack Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 The welders leave their kit in my office on site. The other morning I couldn't resist slipping a piece of black poly under the flip up screen of the big Lithuanian's mask. Watching him try to strike up an arc was hilarious. Luckily he took it very well. Played any lately? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CZ550Kevlar Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 When i started on the railway many years ago i was doing site management, there was a chap who i was told about who thought it was hilarious to stand on the third rail while it was still live and wait for new starters to walk past, they thought the juice was off and when they walked past he would touch them on the back of the neck, i caught him doing it once and bounced him off site and withdrew his permits. Although i have personally been responsible for asking for flat head screws, box of sparks for the grinder, left handed screw driver and a metric adjustable spanner.

Browning 425 clay hunter Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 I used to be a mechanic and when finished doing the traking (old type where you look down the scope) I used to rub some old oil round the rim where you place you eye and asked my boss to check it. He fell for it everytime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asa Bear Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 I'm a fireman and used to work at a station which had a truck manned by part time firefighters. We used to tape stink bombs to the underside of the lift up rear seat on their truck. Whenever we had a two pump shout they'd run in, get dressed and jump on the engine cracking the phials as they sat down. It was hilarious to watch them driving down the road hanging out the windows. Emptying the hole punch into the air vents then putting them on full blast whilst the ignition is off is as crazy as it gets now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ack-ack Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 One of my all time favourites is the cup. A polystyrene cup with a dollop of grease on the bottom is carefully placed atop the victims hardhat. It can stay on there unnoticed for hours. I saw a mahoosif starbucks cup on the hard hat of a random worker nipping out for lunch when I was in London a few years ago. Poor bloke looked like such a chop.

The Essex Hunter Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 The welders leave their kit in my office on site. The other morning I couldn't resist slipping a piece of black poly under the flip up screen of the big Lithuanian's mask. Watching him try to strike up an arc was hilarious. Luckily he took it very well. Played any lately? Later in life in my salvage yard I had a windscreen company and seemed to end up with a lot of odd ball jobs booked in on Saturdays. The old boys used to turn up on time and we would take the broken screen out and they would pace up and down fretting about getting back to the legion for there lunch time pint. Who ever were doing the job, (me or Mick) then the other one would shout out mind you don’t break the new screen! The old boys used to look around and watch one of us going in to the glass stores. We would then come out with a bit of old side glass from a scrap car and proceed to shout oh **** and then launch the side glass on the concrete, the look on their face was worth the side glass. We stopped this after a while as one bloke looked quite pale after, I think he had a bit of a turn!! But it was funny……… TEH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchieboy Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 One of the best "wind ups" I had was at one of our club clay shoots last year. We have one member that is always playing the fool and joking around (In all fairness he really is a great bloke and a good friend) so when we set the traps up I put my electronic caller just under one of them. When he was on the stand and called "pull" I waited for him to fire and (using the remote sender) I set the caller off on a "disterssed hare call" (Which as many of you will know can sound a bit like a baby screaming)! His face was a treat when he missed the clay and it started "screaming" at him! All of us that knew what I was going to do just fell around laughing for ages while he just stared at the clay trap in disbelief! He has never trusted me since then when he is in the stands and I am on the buttons! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungler Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) Fake scratch on my partner's 650 BMW when he just got it, reversing "N" and "M" keys on keyboard, changing passwords to "I LOVE COCK", doing the old desk top screen grab and then setting it as a locked screen saver, a thin elastic band wrapped tightly right someones jacket arm so they can't get it back on (there's normally a good 2 seconds of dancing to get the jacket on followed by bemusement), putting random heavy objects into peoples bags, selo-taping a security tag to the bottom of my secretary's hand bag for her lunch time shopping trip, fake letters from tax office / professional regulatory body (I can't say much more on this, but believe me it worked like nothing else before), getting the office circular birthday card for someone and just above where the last person has written on and signed their name on the card write (in same hand writing and pen) something like "I have always loved you" (to make it look like a bold signed declaration) and then sit back and watch, putting random calls through to an extention and telling the recipient that "it's your mum / dad on the line" (when it wasn't), setting desktops and screen savers with hardcore gay porn (alas can't really do that too often now), swapping all the ink inserts in bic pens round, someone leaves a wrapped sandwich / piece of cake or food item in the fridge to bite into it to leave a perfect teeth indent on the food item to be discovered when unwrapped, sneaking someone's mobile phone during a meeting a texting a random phone book entry with something like "what are you wearing now, saucy" (I sent one to someone's ex girlfriend and he got me back with a text to my bank manager)... I'll give it some more thought and get a better list together. Edited January 27, 2012 by Mungler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blunderbuss Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) I work in an office so have done most of those Mungler says. Others include hiding a pair of big comedy knickers in a male colleagues bag, then tipping the security guards at reception off so he gets pulled in for a "random" bag search on the way out. Changing the auto correct on someones PC to change any word they type a lot, to something else whilst rude stuff was funny, just changing my mate Andy's name to Mandy was the best. He sent a lot of letters and emails before he noticed, and when he did it drove him mental as he had no idea how to change it back. He gave the IT people.(who were in on it) loads of grief and they managed to convince him it was a known bug in MS word and outlook Another mate left his keyboard open so we posted on our intranet, which hundreds use, that he was collecting empty crisp packets for charity. He started to get bombarded with envelopes full of them in the internal mail for weeks. Sewing someone's suit jacket sleeves up when they nip out of the office. Damp cotton wool and cress seeds in suit trouser turnups where they have been left on a hanger. One of the girls used to bring home made mince pies in, but you were lucky to get any before the office gannet hoovered them all up, shoving them in his grinner whole. Booby trapped the top one by removing the lid and adding the contents of a tea bag He never even noticed!

Blunderbuss Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) This is one I saw done as a young squaddie, very, very cruel - don't try this at home kids. A guy who suffered from chalfonts left his tube of treatment cream unattended. Another bloke removed the top half inch or so of cream from the tube and carefully replaced it, with some kind of linament Algipan or Ralgex (think deep heat). He proper screamed when he next used it, I don't think his clacker valve was ever the same again. Also as a young soldier on a barrack in night when we'd all been scrubbing the block ready for a big inspection. One of the blokes got a mars bar and gave it a bit of a suck and chew and moulded it a bit so it looked like a big mersey trout, then put it in the gleaming, recently cleaned bath. He arranged it artfully, even producing some very realistic chocolate skid marks Matey who was responsible for cleaning the ablutions found it and ran into our room screaming "you'll never believe this, some dirty bsatard has **** in the bath"! Everyone ran to look and the perpetrator grabbed the offending Richard and took a bite out of it. The ablutions needed a proper clean after that, from all the resulting puke!
