Let you know tomorrow. :bonk:

Ten years ago my nephew and niece got me good!! My niece left me a voicemail saying something about my nephew getting a girl pregnant and it isn't his girlfriend and she was all worked up. She's a great crier, so of course I fell for it and called him, ready to give good Aunt advice. Luckily he didn't make me suffer too long before reminding me what friggin day it is... oy!

I'm sure I mentioned it before but the MIL would always pack the FIL lunch. On the first she would leave the plastic on his Velveeta cheese sandwich and instead of a hard boiled egg it was an uncooked egg. Sure made a mess on his desk.

Many years ago (40?) I was the assistant manager of a building supply store. We had a young kid working part-time who knew everything.
After telling the manager what my plan was, I gave this kid a job making up a big sign. A sale on 6"x4' post holes. $5.99/each. Limited to quantity on hand. He made up the sign.

Right out of high school I worked at the local manufacturing plant. Was fun. One of the foremen was this skinny guy that was a jokester. He would have 4 5 gallon pails that looked like they were filled with metal knockouts from the punch presses. When a new guy started, especially a big strong guy he had them come help carry those pails where we could all see them. Walt picked up 2 pails with ease and the other guy couldn't even budge his pails. :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: Walt's pails were filled with sawdust except the top 2 inches had the knockouts on top. It actually took a forklift to pick up the full ones. :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: OR send a new guy looking for the skyhooks. LOLOL Asking all around where they were.

The worst one was my wife put Vaseline on my door handle, steering wheel, and filled the vents with hole punched paper. Took a month before the paper stopped flying out of the vents. Saw the Vaseline on the door handle right away. I didn’t notice the Vaseline on the steering wheel until I tried to make a turn and the wheel slipped out of my hand. Almost had a head on collision. She put more thought into April fools the years afterwards making sure she would not almost kill me with her joke. Mostly standard stuff. Clear plastic wrap over toilets, doorways, whole car, ketchup packets under the toilet seat (so when you sit down it squirts all over your butt), unplug USB devices (like wireless mice, keyboards or for the old school people remove the mouse ball), take a screen shot the computer and make it their background after delete their short cuts, fill a bit of the toothpaste with something that is the same color (she has used soap, baking soda, flower past, ect), replace the sandwich lunchmeat with cat food. I didn’t fall for anything other than the steering wheel and that was not funny.
This year I started my company meeting with “for my last 2 weeks” and went into the goals for the week. Saw the color leave the faces of some of my minions. I made sure to remind everyone it was April Fools and I am not quitting before I was done talking. I didn’t want them to accept.
