Moving stuff around on the teamlead's desk. Every time he left the office we swap a few objects round.

We had a new apprentice fresh from school who needed taking down a peg or two.Originally posted by vetran View PostFavourite trick was reversing all the tools on a coworkers bench while they went to the toilet, did it repeatedly eventually he thought he was going mad when his cutters, soldering Iron were on his right instead of his left after the morning visit.
I filled his boots with grease, and had no more problems with him after that.

Sent a spoof email a colleague thanking him for subscribing to a porn site emailing list and everyone @ companyname.com will receive the news letters. (Much panic)
Hid under the desk and dragged my colleague by his feet off his chair. (very loud screams)
Put peanut butter on the headphones and pretended I was cleaning the earwax off and then eat it.

Every morning I used to go and urinate in a coworker's tea, while he was playing some daft trick with my soldering iron.

Decorating the entire workshop with Sheep including poster size pictures & inflatable ones. They managers weren't sure how to handle that.

One job I did (when still a permie) was a little weird.
'Twas called Op GRANBY (Google it). That was pretty weird (not to mention bloody terrifying!).
