    Pranks to play on a manager
    SO my manager decided to slip some Worcheshire (spelling?) Sauce in my drink, which I drank and almost threw up doing so. I told him that it meant war and spent the rest of the night trying to "poison" his drink, but it didn't really work.

    Anyone have any suggestions how I can get revenge?

    Put vasaline on his phone receiver. Saran Wrap under his toilet seat. Google free newsletters and subscribe him to at least 5,000 of them. (using his email ofcourse) Pour a pile of sugar under his gas cap and on the ground. Don't sugar the tank. Put blue cheese on the manafold of his car. Order a stripper to come visit him at work. Fill his desk drawers with pea gravel. Fill his desk drawers with waste parts from the slaughter house. Send him a box of cow poo. Send him a box of waste parts from the slaughter house. Send him a box full of week old carp.

    Pretend to call in on your next shift... tell him you're highly allergic to whatever he put in your drink and you're in the hospital! :p

    Have a friend have lunch/dinner there, get a fake roach, fly, etc. and place it in their plate and ask to see the manager. Discreetly of course.

    If you have plastic wrap at your restaurant.. shrink wrap the phone, then keep calling that #. Or as I did to a co-worker.. I got rolls of alluminum foil and wrapped everything at her desk and work area in foil... including her chair.

    I wouldn't do it at all. The prank can backfire at some point down the line. He is your manager not your fellow employee.

    That was not a prank; it made you sick. And if he is a manager, you must be a performer of some kind. Not good.

    So, let the immature little manager enjoy a deduction from his next paycheck. Real or not, he/she won't do that again. :) Grown-ups play gorwn-up pranks, not childish ones.

    Either that or bride his.her massuse to give 'em and ennema.

    If he eats or drinks something with a strong dark color, put gentian violet in it (not much). I'll make him pee purple and he'll never know from where it came...

    What he did was not a prank. Had he put that into my drink I would have been in the hospital ER. You need to report him to HIS superior as who knows what other "pranks" this immature person will pull on someone and send them to the ER. You "could" happily put a few dissolved ExLax pills in his food and let him sit on his "throne" for a few hours - but then this would not be a "prank" pulled by you - it would be grounds for your immediate dismissal. Even though the shoe would be on the other foot - I am sure he would not consider your "prank" very funny indeed and you would be out on your ear.

    Report him to his boss immediately if not sooner. The workplace is no place for pranks, trust me.

    I have been managing restaurants for years. This is a great prank that is funny, causes no harm, and can still be kept professional with a laugh. After all, this is a restaurant, you want to have a fun, and have a professional relationship with your manager. I like to keep things up-beat at my restaurant. Harmless professional pranks that cause no harm, and do not attract negative attention to guest or employees is key. This prank is one of my favorites. - Go to a Halloween store and purchase an extreemly scary prop, or doll. This can get expensive, but if you can find a good quality prop like a (dead body, or body parts, corpse) it will work great. Once you have the scary prop, place it in the dry storage room at your restaurant when your manager is not around. Once you find a good place to put the prop, ask your manager to help you get something from the dry storage room. When he or she enters, they will scream really loud, and be scared. You and your manager will get a great laugh out of it, and go on with your professional work environment. Make sure you don't go to far with a prank. I hope this helped.

    Worcheshire contains a small amount of fish, it could have killed you. Sorry, but I don't think putting anything in someone's drink is funny.

    Office pranks can be seen on you tube, some of them are hilarious.
