20+ Funny Office Pranks To Pull On Annoying Coworkers

Some of these pranks took major dedication. If I had the kind of follow-through that these folks had, I would definitely go as far as these people. I mean, if one can barely get through one's work tasks each day, how does one find the time to play a prank on one's annoying coworkers?

However, if I could find that time and motivation, I'd be taking lots of inspiration from these Redditors, who shared their office pranks via this r/AskReddit thread. Some of these pranks include the classic "stapler in Jell-O" move, but we also have my personal favorite which is taking a screenshot of your coworker's desktop, hiding all the folders from view, and making the background the screenshot. You'll have your coworker clicking on that screenshots and stuck in a state of complete confusion for at least five minutes.

Moments like this can add some unexpected joy to office dynamics, but they can also add to friction. Perhaps you don't care and you're ready to start a fight with Karen from Communications. Or perhaps you're surrounded by a bunch of bored employees who merely need something entertaining to fill their days. Regardless of what your situation is, if you're looking to pull a prank on someone in the office, this list is for you.
