My Simple April Fools Joke

No Comment // Written on Apr 02, 2009 // Fun stuff

April Fools Day is almost like a holiday for me. I love pranking people all year round, so when a day is nationally dedicated to it, I can’t resist.

I didn’t really have anything planned out this year. I do have this elaborate plan set for a coworker someday but that takes a whole team of people and some sneaky coordination. I settled for this in 2009.

I sent out a simple email to everyone in my department at my job at Chase in the morning, and in the afternoon I sent an email to the whole office at my internship at the ad agency. Here is basically what I sent out.

“You all know how I love cookies but I brought some extra in for you guys, they are on a plate in the empty desk in front of Chuck. Thanks, Eric.”

Here is what they found when they got to the desk.

I printed out a bunch of them and stuck it in a cookie box. Well at Chase, about 8 of the 14 people in my department fell for it. The first one…. my supervisor LOL. Anyway my prank topped all the weak ones by coworkers attempted such as taping the mouse to the desk, or moving my chair.

It played over well in the afternoon at the internship. A few people told me they got tricked and I got 2 email responses.

HILLLLiarous.


Damnit, I fell for it!

You should know better than to tease about sweets in this place J

So thanks to everyone for being good sports. Time to start planning for 2010.

Eric.
