I need some ideas to sort out co-workers. I'm in an IT geek factory and they are all pretty straight. Preferably nothing to do with SW or wrapping up their office cubicle as I am not able to crack the network and I'm too lazy to wrap up an office cubicle, I know we did it to a guy on holidays over Xmas and it's far too mauch work.
Here are a couple for starters;
Empty contents of hole punch into insides of umbrella and close brolly, works a treat.
Remove wheel from chair.
or try this one your self press CTRL + Alt + Down arrow, to reverse do same except up arrow.

Take a snapshot of their desktop, remove all icons from the desktop, and make the snapshot the desktop background.
Watch'em spend hours trying to make the fake icons work. They can even restart without effect.

Or send all the anti-microsoft geeks into a lather by telling them that Apple is about to announce a hostile takeover by Microsoft. They'll spend the entire day gossiping amongst themselves and making up even more reasons to hate MS.

Take the balls out of their mice (taking the other balls out is completely up to you)

Alias everything on the web server to porn sites?

OH we get a guy here at work we've set up a dial up modem to call his direct line every 15 mins, He gets soo angry. FUKING FAX! hahahaa

Another thing to do is tell them that a Key lodger has been in use over the network for the last 6 months and there will be an urgent meeting to dismiss some employees effective imediatly due to unaceptable materials at work. Watch there faces!

We used to turn on active desktop (does that still work?) and write the html code to include a hotspot around the start button to create a pop up a message that would ask: "Have you wiped properly? It doesn't smell like you have." which would always pop up when ever they tried to access the start bar for any reason. Pathetic toilet humour maybe, but the new blokes would always have to ask the boss how to wipe properly.
Just go with the 'glue the phone to the receiver' gag. Old, but always worth a smile.

We used to fill a guys golf brolly with shredded paper. Did it more than once and got him each time, on the golf course, about to rain, up goes brolly and all over the grass goes the shredded paper.

Another guy drove a mini moke. We carried it into the building at work (through double doors) and then locked the building up. Then 1/4 filled the moke with shredded paper.

In fact, most of our pranks involved shredded paper...we had tons of the shit.

Oh bloody brilliant, my co-workers are asking what so funny and I can't tell them..........yet
Chalk, I love the one about the snapshot of the desktop, that's a ripper. The only thing left for me to do is work out how I can wire their phones up to some exploding sh!t and I'll be a happy man..............
