Didn't know where to put this link...but thought it may be amusing.

Explains why I can be active posting during work hours. :)

Our company found a bunch of old promotional cups..and well, I'll let the pics explain it all. To say I work in a chill place is an understatement!

My boss had his office blocked.

Notice the bowl of oatmeal and AT/PCT stickers. :)
(I have nothing to do with the wilted plant or the artwork!)

During our office party, the ten year old daughter of one one of my co-workers had much fun.

The architec firm down the hall thinks we are a bunch of frustrated architecs in disguise....

Classic... I did the same thing once with a collection of plastic cups I had started, but nothing of that scale...

I am known as the office prankster, I built a fort around one guy's cubicle with some huge cardboard shipping containters. Another time I took a 8x8 foot wooden shipping crate, broke it down, and reassembled it another's guy office. Then proceeded to fill it up with the contents of his office, everything from wall hangings to the desk chair, computer and desk phone. I did leave him a small screwdriver to get into it once I had it sealed back up...

Being a prankster can make for some fun evenings when you work the late shift....

I once came back to my office to find that my staff had super glued everything to the ceiling in the "exact" location as it was in my office normally. Except for the actual desk and desk chair, everything I owned was successfully glued and/or mounted in some way. Bastards.

Was a sonofabitch to get down too. I wish I had the photos scanned to post...

I took it well, but those kids were one of the reasons I escape to the woods when I can...

We took and filled a guys cubicle (6 x 9 feet, 5 feet high) with those styrofoam shipping peanuts. About six months later he was still finding them, they stick to everything.

Oh, the good old days....:bse

My big "adventure" during the Korean War was during MP training in New Jersey. I was drafted, but was assigned to an activated National Guard Company.

The Captain was a bricklayer in civilian life and a stickler for precision. We had a six foot by 24 foot bulletin Board, to which the captain added directives several times daily, but only rarely removed any. One night after returning from a night in town, a couple of us very carefully turned 700-800 messages neatly unside down -- so neatly that it was about noon the next day before anyone noticed.

I felt badly afterwards. I thought the Captain was about to break into sobs as he explained how he had tried his best to turn us into soldiers, but obviously had failed.

That's great. That does explain why you can be active posting during work hours. I hope the cups supporting the desk are glued together in some way. What if you accidently kicked it when you scooted your chair in?
