Hilarity was the name of the game at work today
I don't know what set it off.
As all of you edumacated peoples here know it's the beginning of the new fiscal year. That means all of the department heads are all shipped off to corporate for a couple of day developing fancy "development strategies", "marketing analysis", and looking for real estate to put their secret volcano lair with Cobra Commanders Face on the side of it.
So that leaves us in the office basically unsupervised. Sure everyone came in thirty minutes late. And everyone wasn't dressed as snappy as usual. It was like the Friday before a holiday and shit wasn't going to get done.
And that's why it's on like Donkey Kong
It started simple and harmless.
I'm getting coffee this morning and Paul one of the younger guys from Transportation comes over, chides me about Baltimore getting their ass handed to them and then proceeds to pick a huge booger out of his nose and plunk it right in my coffee.
I was stunned.
It was like a taser to the nut sack. I was speechless.
Some normal retaliation followed. Paper clips fired from rubber bands, and wet paper towels thrown at each other. Hell Raul even tied Paul's door to James' door across the hall so they pulled against each other keeping them both shut tight. A couple of us got together and all called the receptionist at the same time pretending to be various irate agencies and asking technical questions that we demanded to be answered immediately.
And then the pranks went up a notch
Getty took some pictures from Lito's office of his oldest daughter and photoshopped them up a bit, some of them risqué some of them hilarious. They were posted all over. The reprisal was swift. We soaked Getty's chair with water and when he sat down he attained instant swamp ass. He is now being referred to as "Polly Pissy Pants" as it now looks like he pissed himself.
My absolute favorite by far might have been over the edge.
John got on the inter-office paging system and calmly asked "does anybody here know first aid? It appears that Wally got his penis stuck in a part of the copier and there appears to be some bleeding"
I was on the phone with the FDOT when this happened and tried my best to contain my laughter. I think tomorrow somebody is going to get the shit.
Not me.
Any suggestions?
The day is young!
