Best one for me was when a customer came to pick his car up from us, we had drained his fuel tank (petrol in a diesel) and then put a tenner of diesel in it for him, he said to my work mate, 'is there enough diesel in it to get me home mate?' my mate just said, 'not being funny mate but I dont know where you f*cking live so I dont know'.

i remember one of the lads bringing fart spray in to the store. sprayed towards me and another work pal, the laugh was all the of got a shock on how strong it was! he said f*ck me thats bad! we walked out the aisle. A few mins later a customer with her other half were down the aisle. you could tell she was trying to ignore the fart spray smell, ( which had spread down right the aisle at that point) anyway we came back, the three of us tried that hard to keep a straight face. but as soon as the lad who sprayed it, started to snigger, which set me off sniggering. that mirroed back to him, which made him worse. that mirrored back to me, so now you had two lads giggling like hell over the smell and the customer. the customer had heard us by then and stopped talking to her other half. she turned around to us and said " I can smell shit!" by christ we blew up in a roar of laughter as soon as she said that!. we had to go out the back for about 20 mins.
i tell you what i dont know to this day how we didnt get busted for that, as he kept spraying it about where the managers were etc. managers were sayin to each other" whats that smell"? others would reply " yeah that smells been around all day in different areas of the shop "
never had another hard laugh like that after wards sadly.

Just general pratting about really. I spend most of my day doing repairs/returns, fixing other peoples fuckups, so it gets a bit frustrating at times so need to unwind by practical jokes.
stuff like really creative places to hide shoes (best place so far, inside a crate of antennas destined for Afghanistan) supergluing things to the boss's desk, moving cars down the road with the forklift, waiting for people to go to the toilet so i can quickly go over to their bench and move everything around or if they had just unbolted something from a gluing plate, i will go over and bolt it on again, just to see how confused they get when they get back.
got in loads of shit once for making a bomb, filled a coke bottle up with the two part mix of expanding polyfoam, superglue lid shut, shake it in the paint mixer then ran like hell. the bottle expanded to 5x its original side before exploding covering the entire room in foam which then set. took two days to clean and the coke bottle lid is still stuck to the ceiling

My asst manager writes me notes and sticks them inside stuff where i won't find it for a few days. Was at the shop and took a fiver out of my wallet the other day, as i pulled it out a bit of paper fluttered out of my wallet and landed on the counter. What's that, pick it up, turn it over to see what it is... It's an old receipt with "lady garden" written across in green marker... Cashier gives me a dirty look...

At work we have this girl that's a bilble basher so she don't have sec before marige or anything a like. Me and another work friend are always talking dirty to each other having a laugh. Just before Christmas the bible basher said to my friend I bet you'd like your other half to give you a lovely pearl necklace. At which point I burst out laughing and straight away my friend bust out laughing. Yet the bible basher was just staring as us wondering what we're laughing at! Which made us laugh even more! Then she asked what she said, so my friend made a wanking action over her chest to demonstrate pearl necklace. So I was laughing so much at this point I was in tears, but the girl was still looking extremely confussed and wondering what the hell we was on about!
When she doesn't have a clue it just makes us even more worse!

We used press the cut off on the hoists on site so they could not get down as the manual override is on the base unit and not the platform. Was quite funny sometimes or making them go up and down unecpectedly. Also when we had 2 we used to race them at a topp spead of about 4 Lol
When I was at morrisons you could not see round the corner into the loading bay from the warehouse so I wrapped aload of clear plastic wrap between the 2 shelfs, the reactions of people who walked into it was f*cking brilliant!

There's a guy who sits on the bank of desks next to where my team sits, who always stands up when he's talking to a customer for a long time. Couldn't resist sneakily hooking my foot under his office chair and pulling it away while he was stood up...
He sat down, hard

For some reason, when ever we employ women engineers at work, they are normally butch lesbians.
We were told we was getting this new engineer who was a women. Next thing i know, ive received a group email for betting she was a bean flicker. When she started, she was shadowing me and another engineer. On the first day, the other guy phoned me up and said, guess what!? Shes not, shes married! I told him to let everyone know so out comes the phone to email everyone. The prat made the mistake of sending the following email to not the select engineers who were betting, but every single person under the group email (including the new engineer).
"Guys
The new northerner isnt a rug muncher...does look like one though"
Needless to say, the new bird wasnt happy and neither was most of senior management.

We used to throw things at each other at work, light bulbs, tins of paint, or paint each others shoes... this one time i made a massive airplane out of a 1.5x1m bit of card, got up on the hoist thngy and launched it across the store, it was epic!
other things we used to do were seeing how high we could stack stock in our trollies (i still hold the record, had to use a ladder to get it down )
or poke each other with stick through the aisles, knock stock off shelves so people thjought billy (the ghost) was behind them, shit like that

So I got a new hat
Had to stand and guard this for about 3 hours till it got cleared out. Absolutely stunk afterwards.
Got this in the internal post
Retaliated with this
Some people need to clear their in trays
Its a dangerous world out there and sometimes I need protection
A nice steep hill, the pic dosent do it justice but being paid to patrol off road tracks on a mountain bike on a sunny day aint a bad job.
My favorite item of office furniture
And I get to see cool stuff like this (there was 2 helicopters but didnt get a photo of them both together)

Haha I done something similar but only had a minute because ironically I was on my way to do a H+S risk assessment but one of the girls working health and beauty left her trolley unattended so I had a lil play. Stacked the shampoos high as I could in the little time I had

Cellotape cricket in the warehouse.
Shrink wrapping every new student to a chair, then leaving a pair of scissors on floor so the can try and escape.
Student with fear of spiders always had new spider desktop or a spider placed on his keyboard.
Convincing foreign students things mean different things,
One girl I made her think that the green P plate on cars meant prostitute.
Another girl we made her think that the word for arm wrestle was wanking competition. Was funny when she challenged the boss.
Shrink wrapping people's cars, food fights, water out the window while they are waiting to come in, all the usual stuff.

Our manager hated mess and mucking about, especially our habit of drawing/writing on stuff, so when we found a broken bag of salt we thought we'd better dispose of it responsibly:
Made a cannon out of some stuff, no pics of the finished product, but this was the final result...
Shrink-wrap ftw (purple shirt guy is the asst manager):
Our baker was the angriest woman i've met, she particularly hated clearing up all her cardboard boxes into the bailer. We thought we'd cheer her up with a surprise in the bailer:
Manager's in first thing tomorrow, and he does like his morning constitutional, how can we improve it for him...? Oh there's some coffee grind there that needs binning...
