Anyone here done this to someone?

I worked with a guy who always put his fruit peels in the trash can of my cubicle instead of his own. I didn't like smelling them by the end of the day, but didn't say anything as he was a few levels above me...

After transferring to a different department, I had to return to pick up my paycheck the day before christmas break started. That's the day where you work a half day and everyone brings a dish for the office party... I arrived after the parties were all over and everyone had left, but saw in one of the conference rooms that there was a bunch of left over food.

So I took one of the peel-n-eat shrimp off of the tray and put it in the Kleenex box that he kept on his desk to ferment until he came back to work after New Years....
 
Oh its a joke? Looked like it might be a good way to strip undercoating....
 
I'll convey one of my experiences since others have thrown some out, worked in a body shop, one individual always playing jokes on everyone to the point of aggravation. He thought it would be funny to smear catfish bait on the bottom side of my box(12k box new at the time) along with other's. He refused to clean it so I did. A few weeks later he got me again. Thought it was funny as hell. So I started sending roses every 2 or 3 weeks to his house for his wife five minutes after he'd pull in the driveway from work. Anonymously with cute little messages. He was refocused now. Could care less about catfish bait. This mess wrecked his head. It's all he talked about. The lawyer he talked to had him hire a P-eye, and by time it was over he was broke and she filed. I politely asked him not to mess with my box the first time. Second time sorry bout your luck. Same dude ran around sliding a/f jugs under cars and blowing them up.

Joking around, talkin' smack, horseplay, is one thing, but messing with someone's belongings or endangerment takes it to another level. Have seen too many shop pranks go wrong to find much humor.

Yea because ruining a marriage is appropriate payback for someone smearing stink bait on your stuff. That's real low man.
 
When your buddy proudly shows you his brand new car, slip under the back and zip-tie
a small metal juice can with a couple of 1/4" nuts in it onto his rear suspension close to
the LR wheel where he's sure to hear the rattle on every bump. Works great at destroying
swelled egos and restores that familiar worried look.
 
-i've saran wrapped the toilet once and went to work on april fools day! -got home, wife was pissed! This was about 4 maybe 5 years ago now.....

When i drove truck i would always truck with a group of friends to the guy i learned from. One of them was an @sshole all the time, to me to everyone but he knew us all..... Well roger lived right above the guy i learned from so one night i went and put hand fulla sand around his gas tank fill.... Not in the gas tank, but around it to "look" as tho someone did.....

Dumb@ss walked 5 miles to the closest gas station to get "new" gas, and went around everyone trying to find a new fuel filter.... Gary the guy i was friends with told him he ought not mess with people, payback is a *****...... So, whats roger ask? Why? Lol gary said, roger think about it..... -i still laugh and so does my friend gary and all his brothers on that one!

The zip tie joke is priceless!

lmao!!!
 
I put rocks inside the hubcaps on a guys car I used to work with who was always playing jokes...metal caps too on a Ford Fairmont so I'm sure it made plenty of noise. We also jacked his car up on blocks just so the tires were barely off the ground...funny thing was his dad drove by and seen us and asked what was going on, we told him and he laughed...guess he knew his son had it coming lol

Normally I don't like messing with peoples cars but this kid deserved it lol
 
Back home years ago while I was doing courier work we got a beeping reverse bulb and while one of the guys was in the office shaped it out for one of his brake lights. Drove him nuts couldn't understand why his van started beeping every time he hit the brakes. we had about 2 weeks of fun with it had him checking all sorts a things.
 
Half you guys here wouldn't like me, then.

Big truck sitting in the shop? Someone's gonna get a handful of fifth wheel grease under their toolbox drawer handles.

Worked with a guy who had a shop at home. He'd pack his carry box full of hand tools and some air tools he'd think he'd need for the night, latch it, then walk away. I'd unlatch it. He'd pick it up, tools went everywhere.

Ever filled a paper bag full of torch gasses? Light the torch, get a good mix, then snuff the flame, fill the bag with the oxy/acetylene mix, and tie it off. Lay it on the floor, relight the torch, put it on the other side of the bag and pull the torch towards it. It'll rattle windows.

Of course, I've had **** played back at me. Laser targets moved on a car so when I went to take a measurement and do a pull something didn't seem quite right.

I wear impact gloves because of repetitive motion. Found those full of grease.

The question of it is, when you're playing a practical joke, are you targeting someone who knows it's a joke? Nothing harmful, nothing that will do any damage?

Some of ya'll need to go down to the local Rent-A-Center and see if you can rent a sense of humor for a couple of days. Try it out, you may like it, and decide to keep it.
 
My rules to live by:
- Never (XXXX-translated=mess) with a man’s wife.
- Never (XXXX-translated=mess) with a man’s money.
- Never (XXXX-translated=mess) with a man’s car.

Note: Above listing not always necessarily in that order.
 
One day I came out from work and my 79 Civic (wife's previous purchase) was side ways in the parking spot.
Turns out the guys had picked it up for a joke. The told me when they set it down, that it was on one guys foot.
They had to pick it back up.
OK, that was funny.
I won't go into long work stories, but I've found out that people have problems that they don't talk about.
Even though I think I have a good sense of humor and attitude,I never mess with anyone.
Because you never know when someone's wife has cancer or brother just died.
(Two personal stories from work)
And I've known more than one person to commit suicide that no one saw coming.
The point is that work is one place this may not be cool.
But family might be OK because you know that person better.
Maybe not.
 
Had that happen to me at a cookout one year. Friends thought it was funny. Stopped me before going on the highway to cut it off. Good thing too we were half drunk, but not enough not to drive.
 
I use to load a dickweeds airhose with oil.
Makes ahellofa mess in a welding booth.

But he was a bad bad man.
 
The track team at my Jr High School took the coach's VW bug and lifted it onto the stage in the gym...
 
we had an oil changer at the dealer who liked to play jokes. one day he decided to anti seize the drawers on my tool box. we all had a little chuckle I told him not to do it again. ( cleaning that mess up takes longer than you think ) luckily it was a slow day so I didn't loose any money cleaning up the mess. about a week later he did it again.
not so lucky I got that crap on the leather of a brand new car. needless to say I wasted a lot of time cleaning up what was now my mess. he came in to find his tool box upside down........ he Never messed with any of our stuff again.
 
Had a guy at work do that to the new foremans diesel. Somebody told him to do it, but didnt realize he would put damn near a whole pack of tie wraps on the driveshaft. The foreman headed home after his two week hitch, half way home his drive shaft goes out from out of balance. Never heard the tie wraps from inside the nice insulated cab.

I dont mess with other folks rides after hearing about it.

Fortunately the Foreman had a good sense of humor, and the dude that did it was a good hand. Nobody lost their job.
 
In HS there was a kid named John who just had to be the first one out of the parking lot. He backed into his spot every day just to facilitate his hasty exit and, when the final bell rang, would run at a full sprint to his ride and go.

We joked about taking off a wheel weight knowing he'd be clueless as to what was happening but a better idea broke ground.

Across the front of his car we opened up and taped on a triple centerfold out of a porno magazine picturing a lovely young couple in full-on coitus. As he sped away, we laughed ourselves to tears just going through all the what-ifs.

The next day John revealed how his afternoon had gone stating that he couldn't quite understand why so many people were blowing their horns and giving him a "thumb's up" on his way home. But as it would turn out, his mom was the first one to discover the gag.

Priceless.
 
I guess I am a party pooper. I don't agree that it's funny to mess around with someone's car. IMO that's lower than a snake's belly. Somebody does that to my truck and they're goin home with a fat lip.

THIS is the correct answer
 
In high school there was one kid who was a real jerk. Drove a VW bug. In those days there were the old metal galvanized trashcans located around the parking lot. A bunch of us guys got together, flipped the trash can upside down and placed the car on top of the trashcan. He got the point and mellowed after that.
