Mr. Focker calling...um hello?

I worked in telecommunications department and was leaving soon so on my last day I took a risk. I had access to the database that controlled the caller id on the office phones (you know how your name shows up when you call someone internally). So there was this guy in another department that would bother me all the time with crap requests. So on my last day I changed the caller id of this guy to come up as "Gaylord Focker". (as in Ben Stiller's character in "Meet the Parents"...) I used the generic login when I did it so I wouldn't get in trouble. There were 5 of us that had access. They probably figured out who did it but hey...it was worth it. I wish I could have been a fly on the wall when the request came in to change it back!
