Ok, so it's April Fools' Day and if you escaped the workday without one of your oh-so-witty fellow employees pulling a lame ass prank, consider yourself lucky.
April Fools' Day is dumb. I have no idea who started it or what it's purpose really is besides being lame.
My husband doesn't work in an Office of Doom but he still fell victim to a coworker prank. His partner e-mailed him this morning claiming that their company's bank account had been hacked and the balance withdrawn.
The news sent him into a password changing frenzy but half way through the process his partner e-mailed again. April Fools.
Hardy har har. Not so funny.
Pranks always seem to border on mean.
Here are a few examples of April Fools' gags that just don't fly.
"My father died today....just kidding"
"I just ran over your dog....April Fools"
"I want a divorce....psyche"
"You're fired.....not really"
Maybe I should declare April 2 Wise Person's Day and quit.....then just keep on walking.

Here is the April Fools joke I should've played on V.
ReplyDeleteIt's almost 10am and I'm late again. She suspects nothing.
Calling V on the cell, "Hey V. Yo, it's Lo. I quit today."
V: "You did what?"
Me: "Yeah. I emailed PAB this morning. Can't take it anymore.
Gotta go back to bed. Sorry about the blog thing."
