Halloween "Trick"

[Royd]

Maybe the guy's a pushy, controlling, thinskinned narcissist and deserves what he has coming to him. You can't pamper every personality, every day of their lives.

Hahaha! He has such an ego he felt special being singled out and being the "center" of all that attention! O geeze.

Pranks are usually fun. The best one my husband ever did was in Iraq with a couple of buddies, to this NCO that went on leave. They had built the buildings the office was in and it had low, sturdy ceilings. So they screwed his desk and chair to the ceiling. Flipped the whole office upside down! Hilarious!

Another one, they used army issue green colored duct tape... wrapped a whole desk in it because the NCO left without locking it up. You need to be accountable and secure everything. They... secured it.

Course they were punished after the laugh... took a lot of goo-gone to get the tape residue off.

100% agree! Nothing concerning PC at all.

If 70 people took the time to organize such a wide spread prank just for me, I'd be flattered.

so everyone spent a lot of time pranking each other at work? Isn't that company time when people are getting paid to work?

Right...? I work in an office with my boss, the mechanic and the accountant. We know how to joke and tease but we never actually stray from our jobs in order to plot an elaborate prank. That's just irresponsible and unprofessional.

I dressed up for Halloween. Would have been excited to be dressed up whether I was the only one or not!

There were 2 of us that dressed up...

Out of 150 people. We rocked.

My clinic. As long as all clients are seen by 6pm, charts filled out, and paperwork faxed to the proper insurance companies, its all good.

Thanks for your concern.

I did not realize you owned the clinic, since you never stated it. I have only seen you state you were an occupational therapist. If you are unconcerned with your employees being distracted by constant pranks to the point of everyone being extremely paranoid on April fools day, that is your business. I hope it's working for you.

I agree. A little fun is fine but there are lines that can be crossed and some people do cross them. Sounds like your office doesn't cross that.
