    Another IT guy at his last day modified the ordering system for the warehouse. Hundreds of truckloads of goods ordered and cause chaos.

    Sticky tape to cover the infrared laser at the bottom of co-workers optical mice.
    Fake cockroach on co-workers keyboard... heard the scream five offices away.
    Swap coffee with decaf. Watch as the office starts to go through caffeine withdrawals.

    Tape on the phone hanset works too. As does diverting all of the office numbers to one mobile.

    Not quite a workplace shenanigan, but a ripper practical joke; one of my ex-bosses used to order a trailer load of sand to be delivered and dropped in his mates' driveways.

    If someone would ask me for a phone number I'd often read out the bosses or someone that they disliked, the looks on their faces is priceless till they realise whats going on!

    At one place I worked, there had been rumours of 'outsourcing'. On April fools day, I typed a letter that said we were all getting outsourced shortly, printed it on the work letterhead, snuck in and dropped it on the supervisor's desk while he was out of his office.
    When he came back and read it he called all of the staff over for a stop work meeting to tell them, all ashen faced like he was in shock...
    Oops.

    Working in global markets - anyone caught with their mobile with ringer on in meetings through the day had it hidden in the false ceiling panels. Great fun to watch, especially as we had a few vertically challenged team members
