Looking for new tricks to play on new hires


Recommended Posts

Asys, come on, we can't hurt their feelings anymore you know. If we do then they whine about it.

I tell my son, not everyone wins, you are sometimes chosen last and yes in tag you are sometimes "IT".

Call DFS on me now.

My son took a empty coke can, a long stick and some duct tape and he made himself a gun. It didn't look like a gun but he said it was. I'm sure some zero tolerance person out there would expel him from school for doing so.

Sometimes I think we've gone too far.

One more atrocity that I'm saddened by is that Hasbro has no longer made GI Joe a marine. He's now part of an international force run by the United Nations. They WUSSIFIED HIM!!!!!!!! Damn liberals and political correct buffoons

Jake, I would like you to remember that there are firefighters on these forums, while most of the time the jokes about firefighters are all in good fun, as a firefighter, I feel that you are calling us juvinile and imature. You can be professional and still have a good time.
I do remember there are FF here.

I can also spell juvenile and immature.

There's a difference between practical jokes and full out hazing. Hazing is increasingly illegal. A practical joke can, if given the right environment and people, be a good laugh for all involved.

Until you know how the newbies will react, it might be best to hold off until you get to know him/her a little better. The last thing you want is to be named in a hostile work environment complaint. You'll lose your job and FAST! Even if it was all "harmless and in good fun".

I'm going to have to agree with Jake on this one. If you want to be treated as a professional then it's best to act like one. If you want to stand out from the rest of the whackers out there then this is just one of the many things you can do to clearly identify yourself as a professional. It's a far cry from joking and playing pranks with your partner after you've been working with him/her every day for months, if not years, on end to "initiating" a new hire.

If you feel you absolutely, positively *must* stoop to such first grade levels, then perhaps get everyone else involved and just make the rookie *think* something's coming when, in fact, there's nothing coming. Suspense can be the worst prank of them all.

Until then...

-be safe.

Great, then we can all play a softball game without the score, so long as everybody had fun!

Softball's for wusses. Are you saying you're a wuss?

NO WONDER HILLARY CLINTON IS TAKING OVER!

Stop your whining. She's your senator. You had your chance to do something about her. In fact, the rest of the country was *counting* on you to do something about her. And what did you do? Put her back in the Senate. Gee. Thanks for that. :roll:

-be safe
