April Fools seemed to get missed here

I know we are all busy but I still can't avoid pulling some pranks. Lets hear what everyone did, I did a few, here is my best.

I Xeroxed a paperclip and then made a couple of hundred copies of it. Loaded the paper bin and asked an intern to make me a copy of a few pages. when I got them back I pointed out the clip image on the paper and said there must be a paper clip stuck in the machine....

..... 3 hours later he was still trying to take apart the machine looking for a stuck paper clip.

I went home at 10:30 and stared at the TV for 45 minutes. Then I turned it on. Got me good.

You should fire him since you made 200 copies of the clip. He should try another tray or check the paper. He still has paper with the clip on the tray.

That gives employers a good idea to try on April 1. See how stupid their employees are. I wonder how many times they have tricked and I wonder how many jobs I have lost in April.

I called a couple of clients to let them know what they owe yesterday and they THOUGHT it was a prank call. They're waiting for me to call back today and yell "April Fool", but unfortunately that isn't going to happen.

Our long time receptionist who also does all of our collating left in March with only a few days notice, she got a government job and had to start right away....We hired the 2nd person we interviewed who has been doing great. I had her go into my partners office yesterday and give 1 weeks notice [leaving the week before 4/15] He turned so many shades of red I thought he was going to stroke out on me.

A client was told by his co-workers that CT was giving out $50-100 rebates, but you had to call by last night. His wife called me to inquire, but then apologized in embarrassment as hubby's co-workers were yelling April Fool.

Years ago at Block, driving home very, very late, I sat at a stop sign waiting for it to change for I don't know how long before realizing it was not a stop light but a stop SIGN and was not going to change and it was alright to go! (That's why I love my OIH.)

Michael, you are mean as a snake. Kudos to you.

I thought the President pulled a pretty good April Fool's prank with his Obamacare speech yesterday.

(OK, if anybody objects I'll delete it.)

What is on TV on Tuesday night anyway? Thursday is better, Big Bang Theory and Grey's Anatomy - That is when Tax Season is not in session...

Not much April Fools pranking went on here. My 9 year old did come in from school and said, "Mom, when did you get braces?" When I looked at him and said, "What are you talking about?," he yelled, "April Fools! I got you!" I don't think he really understands how April Fools works.

I have no idea. But, it sure was nice not to have to talk to anybody. Except myself.

This is on one me.

In addition to tax prep/accounting, I'm also a pastor. Sunday morning our children's ministry leader thought it would be hilarious to hide my Bible and sermon notes!

I didn't find them until about five minutes before service time! I didn't think that was near as funny as the time I did the same thing to someone else !

Take the sermon notes, copy them in the copier in mirror image, then replace the originals with the copies....

Ooh, Jack. I like that! As long as it's someone else, of course. I'll have to give that a try!

I just saw this article today. It happened on 3/31 where two of the hosts of The View ( Jenny McCarthy and Sherri Shepherd) went topless on the show. At first, before I read the article I thought it was an April Fools joke but later realized, after reading it, that it was just sad.

Now a few years ago Sherri Shepherd admitted she didnt know that the world was round and boy that was funn ... um nope just sad again.
