Joke’s On You!

Has anyone every played an April Fool’s joke on you?

Someone got me good last year and I work with the guy (who shall remain nameless to protect the guilty), so now I’m on high alert today.

Here’s last year’s joke: he took a big brown shipping box and filled it up with those styrofoam packing peanuts, put a label on it and shipped it to me. Didn’t cost much to ship since it was empty except for those peanuts. When the mail carrier brought it to the office, he had the receptionist set it aside and give it back to him instead of her taking it to my office. He took it into his office and used a knife to cut around the bottom of the box. Then, while I was in a meeting, he took it to my office and set it down on my desk. So when I came back from the meeting I see the box which I think just came in the mail and I pick it up to take a look. Of course, when I picked it up, the bottom was cut and it opened up and dumped all the peanuts onto my desk and they spilled out over EVERYTHING. It was a huge mess and everyone walking by my office saw the thousands of peanuts and had themselves a good laugh. A week later I was still finding orphaned peanuts under the desks and chairs.
