What are you doing for April fools day?

I am intending to post a sign on the mens and womens doors that we are not longer supplying TP and that employees will have to supply their own resources.

Are you doing anything?

Considering that we are under strict budget cuts right now I heard a few people say "That figures!" in commenting about the TP.

I'll take the signs down in the morning. I am actually supprised that they were threre all day!

Nothing this year, but one year, on April 1st, I sent out an email to everyone stating that we were having phone issues and we were working with AT&T to resolve the problem. The fix was that AT&T was going to blow a large amount of compressed air through the phone lines at noon to clean them out. I instructed everyone to get a plastic bag and tie wrap from Information services to place over their phone receiver to capture the dust blown out.

We actually had a few people show up for bags...

I really couldn't think of anything that wasn't mean. I thought about calling my inlaws and telling them I was pregnant, but I didn't want to have to let them down, telling them it was a joke ^_^. I even thought about calling my dad and telling him I wrecked my car (it's the first car I've ever bought, it's old as crap but it runs fantastic. I bled, wept and sweat buckets for that car). However, he'd probably have a heart attack. That's no good. I even thought of getting a jar of vaseline and greasing the doorknobs at the office with the stuff... but I'd probably get myself with my own joke....
Maybe I should buy some whoopee cushions and some fish candy or something.
Did anyone else have any better ideas?

One year on the way home from work I stopped just a couple of miles from home and called my wife. I had just bought a used car not too long ago.

Well I called her and told her that I will be late coming home. I continued and told her that the car caught fire and that I was OK. The I rushed and said that I had to go because the Fire truck was here ...

You should of heard her going "what?!? what?!?" Then I said "April Fools!" Boy was she pissed at me!

This was done to me and caused me a few minutes of stunned confusion - change the size of glassware sets of standards, from all one size to three different sizes; label everything clearly, but just put it in bottles that don't look like the original bottles, which were all the same size. It took me a good while to figure out what was going on, then I laughed about it. And changed them all back to the same size again.

maybe I am (04/01/2008) I told people I was pregnant and considering taking a 6 month maternity leave. If you knew what a high stress "have to be here every day" type of place my job is you would see the humor in that!
