Print Screen Computer Prank

m

Too many years ago we had a similar episode. We were temporarily housed in a motel (three departments). When we first got there, they forgot to plan for the keypunches (I told you it was a long time ago).

So temporarily, one keypunch was placed half in a bathtub, and I'll leave it up to your imagination as to where you sat to use it.

We often told the other two departments that we then understood why their code was so CR...Y.

Later they added a lean-to shed for three keypunches.

It is anally-retentive folks like you who make pranks necessary. You must be a blast at the Xmas office party.

While I agree there is a time and a place for this, and that there is professionalism in the workplace to be considered, there is also the other side of the issue, where people take it way too seriously.

Office pranks are an art and a form of expression, hence protected speech. As long as the prank is non-destructive and is done on the prankster's own ressources rather than the company's I cannot see any harm in it.

In other words, before pointing out the straw in our eye, take that stick you got out of your butt!!
