Someone was lightly victimized in this, but no one was upset and it was all in good fun.

Years ago, my buddy taped an air horn under his boss’s chair. We worked in a bullpen and the boss had a fishbowl office in the corner. He came in and sat down and of course it went off. Boss fell out of his chair, everyone stopped working, and everyone’s morale was super high the rest of the day, especially the boss.

The boss had never felt like part of the team. Most of us had worked together for years and we all played light pranks on each other. He came much later. It was the first time he really felt like one of us.
