12 Days of Cubicle Pranks

Although there are but a few days left before the holiday, you still have time to bring cheer to others in the office (although it's probably more for yourself than for others) who have already signed out for the holidays.

Typically, for facility and office managers, this is a great time to get caught up on your office reconfigurations, moves, add-ons, fixes, and all the other activities that are easier to accomplish when people aren't sitting at their desks.  Who says you can't have a little fun with your co-workers while you work?

We have some ideas for you in case you needed a little inspiration:

1) The "Foiled" Office --  Also good for picking up signals from distant planets.  Pyramid hat not included. 

2)  The Balloon Filled Cubicle -- Creates a festive atmosphere for those left laying on the ground gasping after having blown up all the balloons.

3)  The Plastic Wrap Cubicle --  Best place to find plastic wrap for this, shipping department or mail room.  Theirs usually has a handle!

4)  Desk Accessories Imprisoned in Jello -- Only if you have replacement items or that favorite mouse that no longer works -- will bring tears to their eyes. 

5)  A Festive Holiday Village  --  Makes returning from a long holiday a little more cheerful (albeit a lot less fire code compliant).

6)  The Post It Note-ery  --  Soothing grids for the OCD in you.

7)  Post Its For Those You Love -- Immortalize your co-workers in post its.  Ambitious, yes, but you will always be remembered.  Though it may be because people are wondering how in the world you had enough time to do something like this.

8)  The I <heart> Justin Beiber Cube! --  One of my personal favorites.  There's really nothing more to say about that.

9)  Police Scene Cubicle -- A bit morbid, but some people like that.  :)

10)  The Bubble Wrap Cubicle -- For those needing a little extra protection.

11)  For people who would rather work from home, or who would like to have their own office.  Why not make their wish come true?

12)  And for those who can't stand rodents -- why not cute little stuffed ones?  

While I'm sure you don't have a minute to spare on crazy stuff like this - just keep it in the back of your mind for when you find a few extra minutes and an empty office on your hands.  :)

Wishing you all the best for the New Year!
