Forums General Chit-Chat Work pranks
I can't get over how much this made me laugh yesterday.
Everyone was on staff, so that's me, my coworker K, manager C, store manager S and comanager J.
Well S and J were acting like they were having a normal conversation next to K. They were talking about a gun shop in town and mentioned something about donuts being sold at the counter "again". These guys are solid actors, even I thought they were having a normal conversation, so I wasnt even paying attention yet.
K is confused, like uh what guns and donuts??? She didn't believe them when they were elaborating. So S and J turn to manager C who was not part of this, but very convincingly joins in. He's like "Huh? The one on [street name]? They moved the donuts there again??"
S is like "Yeah!!! They took it out for a while but they just moved it back not too long ago!"
K is so confused, thinking they must be pulling her leg. She's trying SO HARD not to be gullible.
They show her a photo of a gun shop with donuts in a glass case (my husband said this is a meme going around lol)
She's still like no there's no way, yall are foolin
S, J and C have MAD poker face, that even i started to get fooled by them.
Somehow
K was convinced to call the store
SHE CALLS THEM
We're all laughing cause even if it was true it's funny to ask. K was all "fine, I'll put on my most southern accent i can" (she's from NC so her accent is different from theirs)
On the call she politely asks them, "If I came in to buy ammo, would I be able to get some donuts with that?"
We're laughing cause it sounds like a prank call but she's serious. Like she fully believes what she's saying.
The person on the other line HAD TO ASK THEIR MANAGER
That's where the manager reveals the truth, they do not sell donuts. She apologized and got off the phone and all of us laughed so much our customers might have thought us mad :vanora_xd:
Thought I'd share!
This has to be the best prank they've done to her yet. Topping the one from when she first got hired last year and she asked S how to tell if a mattress is a flippable or nonflip mattress (all of our are nonflip) and he told her to knock on them cause they'll sounds more hollow. She did to one before realizing... lmfao
That's an impressively gullible employee, but it's good it gave everyone a good riot.
I had my whole desk rubber-banded while I was out at lunch once. It was well-deserved after all the nonsense I had been pulling on my coworkers.
A really good one that they pulled was telling everyone in the company that they "found out" I did standup and I had a show at a bar that Friday. The entire week people were telling me how excited they were to see me and that they knew all along I should have been doing it. It really came to a head at the end of the week when everyone had planned to go to that bar to see me.
I don't do standup and I never have.

@blue:
That last one is so dang funny, I love it!
Also how does one rubber band a whole desk? XD
My manager does -not- like christmas. Like, he really despises it. So last year when he was off for a day, my coworker (the "gullible girl") I came in to decorate his desk
I realized I should have bought way more bows but it was still fun. Ended up interrupted by a customer while doing this and he JOINED IN helping us tape the bows down while we discussed his invoice :vanora_xd:
The funniest thing is that because I put those eraser things on his pens, ALL OF HIS PENS GOT STOLEN by customers before the holiday season even ended???? THEY'RE THE CHEAPEST GREY PENS YOU GET EVERYWHERE just with dollar tree erasers worth a nickle ea.
Why yall want them lmfao
@Jolly: bruh this sounds like an amazing place to work omg xD
Like Jim and Dwight
Like Jim and Dwight
@Ruby:
Yeah as long as corporate guys dont walk in and catch me napping :vanora_xd:
But if they walk in and I'm laying on a mattress? They wouldn't mind as long as I say something funny (and if there's no customers needing service)
Gotta know what we're sellin ;D
