How To Get a Free Mental Checkup

From the “Home of the Blues,” Memphis, Tennessee, while EMS workers were inside of the Regional One Medical Center, Tanya Thomas was lurking around the exterior of the facility. At some point, Tanya had the bright idea to steal an ambulance that was parked at the hospital. In the process, she ran over the foot of someone standing nearby. She also crashed into another EMS vehicle. Her plan ended though when she smashed into a brick wall. As expected Tanya was immediately scheduled for a mental evaluation.

Snakes In His Pants

From the “you have got to be kidding” file, during a routine inspection, Chinese customs officials were shocked when they searched an unidentified man and found over 100 “live” snakes that were hidden away in the man’s pants. The man had the snakes secured in a bag that was then attached to his pants. Several of the snakes were not native to the man’s homeland country of China. At this time, we are not sure what the outcome was.

10 of the Best Office Pranks That Hopefully Won't Get You Fired

Playing harmless office pranks can have several benefits for workplace morale and culture when done appropriately! My current workplace is constantly trying to “out -prank” each other and the shenanigans reach epic proportions. It’s inspiring really. But it turns out, pranking is the way to go for a happy and healthy working environment. Some benefits to this practice include:

  • Boosting Creativity: Pranks encourage out-of-the-box thinking and problem-solving. Coming up with clever pranks and navigating their execution can stimulate innovation and creative ideas that translate into work projects.
  • Increasing Productivity: Laughter and fun can provide much-needed breaks, reducing stress and preventing burnout. Employees who enjoy occasional lighthearted pranks are often more engaged and productive overall.
  • Enhancing Camaraderie: Pranks can strengthen social bonds between coworkers. Planning and pulling off jokes together, as well as being on the receiving end, creates shared experiences and memories that boost a sense of team spirit and unity.
  • Improving Communication: The planning and aftermath of pranks gets people talking and interacting more than they might otherwise. This opens up communication channels and helps build interpersonal relationships.
  • Attracting Talent: A workplace that embraces some degree of humor and levity tends to be more appealing to many job seekers. Fun office culture can be a selling point for recruiting (allegedly).

However, it’s crucial that any pranks follow ground rules to keep things appropriate for the workplace:

– No damaging property

– No major disruptions to work

– No causing injuries

– Only prank those who enjoy it

– Avoid anything discriminatory or crossing lines

When used judiciously, clever and harmless pranks can meaningfully improve office culture and employee satisfaction. The key is moderation and knowing your audience!
