At my current job about a year or two ago I was talking to a customer and took their payment. After I was done, I called my supervisor and told them I charged over $1000.00 to heir credit card by mistake. She freaked out..! Small time prank but I got a pretty good laugh out of it!

I just went around the office and swapped the "M" & "N" keyboard keys on a few computers.

This one went on for most of the day at work.

One guy in our office had lots of toys at his desk. Prominantly displayed was a Mr. Potato Head.

I kidnapped Mr. Potato Head. At the time I was doing Word Processing for a living for an clothing company called Union Bay Sportswear, and my desk was by the elevator and the conference room for that floor...kind of like a receptionist, but I didn't answer phones nor have to really deal with people since the floor was for the accounting staff.

Anyways, when I kidnapped Mr. Potato Head (hereafter known as MPH), I left a ransom note with a MPH ear attached. I asked for 1 million bucks, or MPH would be brutally killed. In the note I directed Randy (MPH's owner) to leave the million bucks in the conference room.

Randy (MPH's owner) came by shortly after that, and went into the conference room, leaving a note. I waited about a half hour, and grabbed the note when no one was around. The note said that he needed proof that MPH was still alive or he wouldn't pay. Randy always had a good sense of humor, so it looked like he was going to play along.

I typed up another note stating that MPH was alive, and here is fresh blood to prove it. I attached another ear with some ketchup on it. I also stated that he didn't have much time, and to pay up quickly, or MPH was french fries! I delivered this to Randy's desk while he had stepped away.

Randy came by my desk a little later, and asked if I had seen anyone go into the conference room. I said that I hadn't. He asked that I keep an eye out for whoever went in there. I agreed to do that. He then went into the conference room and left another note.

The note had a 1 million buck fake money bill attached to it. In Potato We Trust, E Potato Unum, MPH as the portrait in the center....that kind of thing.

I wrote up another note saying that fake money was insulting and if he didn't have the 1 million bucks ready by 2:00pm, bad things would happen. I again put this on Randy's desk.

Randy came out to my desk shortly after that asking if I had seen who went into the conference room. I said I didn't, but I had stepped away to deliver some documents to my boss for a few minutes. He cursed and walked away.

2 o'clock came and went with nothing further being put into the conference room. When Randy had stepped away for another smoke break, I delivered a bowl of potato chips with MPH parts mixed in...to his desk.

Started a rumor that my boss was resigning from the organization. It spread like wildfire. At the end of the day, I had a visit from him!
