Workplace Pranks: Making Fake Applications for your Boss
Hello there! Today I’d like to talk about workplace pranks. I worked as a full-time manager of a pizza shop awhile back, I got the job when I was taking a break from school and kept it for my first year back. Since I was the manager, and the owner of the store liked me a lot, I think I was able to get away with a lot more than other people.
My favorite pasttime as far as workplace pranks go was writing up fake applications for the owner of the store. I liked to keep him in check, and forged some sweet applications, just to make sure he was actually reviewing them carefully. For example, one time I wrote up an application for a guy named (well, we’ll call him) “Rob Smith”. I made it really good. As it turns out, we had a former employee named (once again, we’ll just call him) “Rob Smithwick” that was a complete asshole and a lousy worker. He eventually got in a huge fight with the owner and was fired. I put Rob Smithwick’s actual phone number on the fake application, and sure enough, the dumbass owner called thinking it was “Rob Smith”, and they got in a huge verbal argument on the phone.
A second example of a quality application was when I made a fake one for a homeless guy, and made the application good, except for the “desired position” part, where it said he was applying for the position of: “tenant in the dumpster”. Another time, I made an application for a nice 82 year old man. I said he worked in an ice cream shop for 58 years, but it closed down and he needed a job. There was one little blemish on his application though. I said he was imprisoned in 1945 for war crimes in WW2, when he killed some Japanese POW’s at a prison camp. In addition, I made a fake application for a black guy that hated white people’s guts. My favorite part was when, in an attempt to show the utmost contempt for white people, I said that he was arrested at a Harlem Globetrotter’s game for fatally stabbing a member of the Washington Generals.
I was cleaning my house the other day and found a couple of copies that I made of some applications. The following is a summation of what is probably my favorite application. This one was entirely over the top, and it was clear that I was just bored and having fun. I made the guy look as shady as humanly possible. My boss yelled at me for it, but I didn’t get written up, fired or suspended or anything like that. Needless to say though, the owner of the store wasn’t exactly thrilled when he saw an application that said this on his desk:
