There's no better way to welcome back your coworkers from the holidays, vacation, or that long sales trip than with an office prank. There is no need for pranks to be relegated to April Fool's Day; any day of the year is good for a small joke. A prescription for safe office pranks if often perfect for some fun lighthearted fun and/or well deserved payback.

In this day and age, Technology and the Internet rule, and most people spend their time online browsing, emailing or shopping. Why not try and play a joke on your friends where they spend most of their time…their computers and offices.

Remember, any prank you can easily play on someone could just as easily be used against you as well.

It's Not Easy Being Green

Is your boss going on vacation? Your coworker taking some time off for their honeymoon?  Are your underlings out of town for training?  If someone is going to be gone for a week or two, then why not show them how much you appreciate them by growing a garden for them, in their keyboard.

  1. Spray an old keyboard (one you don't mind ruining) with water. Make sure the entire keyboard is completely misted, including between the keys.
  2. Sprinkle cresscat-grass, or clover seeds in the cracks of the keys (cress is fast growing and will produce the best results).
  3. Place the keyboard inside a clear plastic bag, like a produce bag from the grocery store. Make sure the entire keyboard is nicely wrapped but also leave some room for it to breathe, creating a greenhouse type effect.
  4. Place the keyboard in direct sunlight, near a window is perfect. 
  5. Two weeks later, watch your co-worker come back and notice their keyboard with a full set of grass coming out of their keyboard.
Do not plug the keyboard into the computer.  While the likelihood of an electrical short is minimal and the voltage the keyboard uses is minute, electricity and water do not mix.
