It doesn't have to be an April Fools day prank, but what are some pranks you have pulled on someone or someone has done to you?
So my friend Danny bought this device:
It is a remote controlled Power Strip. You plug any device into it and then press the on off button on the controller and the device goes on/off. Useful for lamps and lights... Funnier on PC monitors!
So we plugged my co-workers monitor (also an IT person) into this and every 45-90 min we would switch it off for like 5 sec and then back on right away so she would start to mess with the cables in back and then it would come back. This went on from 9am til about 330 when she found it. We convinced her it was an old power strip that must have died. No problems since...
So last night after that we plugged it into another person's monitor and have been playing this game with her all day. she said next time it went off she is calling IT. I wont answer the phone so the girl from yesterday has to do it. She will find the device and think its another power strip around the office that failed...
Hilarity ensued!
I'll post what comes of it!
