Pranks Office New Policy Changes

This trick is easy to pull off if your company loves policies or rules. This prank works best if you are the leader of the company or a department. Try to pick categories that are currently causing problems. Like costs, sales, delivery issues or any other department of your company that is currently stressed. Then make some kind of ridiculous rule change in relationship with this stress. The more ridiculous the better.

Example 1
Employees will now receive 29.5 minutes for lunch instead of the regular 30. This cost saving measure will allow the company to save enough money to get new pens for all the staff next year. Please note that this new policy will be monitored with the new video surveillance that has been installed in the lunch room.

Example 2
Due to the high number of personal calls being made at work we are now setting up visiting hours for you and your friends because we feel it will be more cost effective than monitoring the number of personal calls that staff make.

Example 3

If you need to look up at a computer screen or a report please ensure to cover your eyes to avoid any accidental eye contact.

Pranks Office - New Employee Pranks

New Employees can be easy targets because they are in the world of believing just about anything you say. I remember working at a restaurant and the Chef was yelling at the new guy to run downstairs and get a loaf of brown toast. Each time he returned with a loaf of bread he was told to go and find the brown toast. You can make up any gadget or crazy protocol for them to follow.

Examples: Dehydrated Water, Bucket of compressed air or steam, Lightning bolts, a left handed wrench, hammer, razor, snow tires for the shopping carts or whatever. Using a sense of urgency will force the rookie to act without thinking through the request.

New Employee Pranks - That Guy is Crazy

Tell a new staff member some hideous story about another employee. Tell them to watch out for that person because he has a really bad temper (especially if they are kind and gentle). Or tell them not to make eye contact with them because they may snap-or any other BS you want to pull off. It works best when other employees are coming up to the target and saying things like, "Did they warn you about that employee?" If they say no then wish them good luck.
