Pranks in the Office

Well I feel I've been up to some mischief and I need to confess it to someone so you are all going to be witness to it. During my lunch hours I have tried to brighten the mood and keep myself entertained.

My first prank was to call Nicky Smith as she was at lunch and leave a message on her phone (in a very good British accent) stating that I was Franklin from the British High commission and that a Ms. Smith's visa is going to be revoked. The next day I heard from others in the office that they were trying to trace the call as it was not a 519 area code (Ottawa) number. I then left another message stating that I had been mistaken and it was another Ms. Nicky Smith that we were looking for, and that she should disregard the previous message. She would have believed it, if not for the chuckles of my office mate Nicola. None the less Nicky was fooled and it was quite the joke...

Next I decided to pick on some else foreign so I chose Robyn. She has asked me to send an email to Duncan's 12 about some bio's that need to be done. So I sent that out and immediately after told everyone but her to make a singles dating bio... Here is an example...

Nicola

Nicola is a classy young lady from England who is the Sr. Executive Assistant to the C.E.O. of a large multi-national company. Her passion in life is to meet the man of her dreams, and fend off any boys who would dare to even try and get near any of her cell group. She loves British Chocolate and long drives through the rolling hills of the English countryside in her British racing green convertible, complete with head scarf. Nicola can’t wait to meet that tall dark and handsome man of God that will sweep her off her feet and fly her around the world to many exotic locations such as St. Thomas, Bali, and the Caribbean .

and...

Ben K

Ben Kennedy is a lovely metro-sexual, and despite famous rumors, is still in fact on the market!
At an impressive 6 ft. 2 inches, Ben has Caramel skin and beautiful sapphire blue eyes.

Ben works with youth at Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship but is keeping his options open. He hopes to meet his future wife in a church service by some miraculous event!

Ben is a modern day Robin Hood but instead of stealing from the rich he gives to the poor out of his own pockets. He walks the streets of Toronto bathing the homeless and providing them with a health nutritious meal. Ben's dream girl would be a woman interested in these same ideals.

He is a very humble person, when asked about his physique, Ben said "No comment."

Anyways... Needless to with the help of the rest of the 12 (good job guys), we managed to all send them one after another, and as Robyn later said.... "At first I thought there was something strange, but once they all came I figured out what was going on." She and the rest of us all had a good laugh.

My last little trick was to another foreigner. (Why stop) I chose to pick on Caroline as it was her birthday hence most plausible target. Nicola received a flag. She tried to pawn it off on me, so I decided to pass it off to someone else. We (the upper office) called Caroline and told her we all pitched in and bought her a gift. Later she came up and was presented the flag.... I wasn't their to see the reaction, but I heard from Nicola that it went over quite well.


So all in all they may not seem very tricky, but for Nicola and I it was quite funny!
