'I can mimic that sound perfectly': 20+ Crafty workplace pranks that totally fooled coworkers

Boring workplace? Time to liven it up with a few pranks! That's what these people did, and they shared the resulting hilarity with r/AskReddit.

If you've ever gotten to prank your coworkers, you know how funny it can be. If you're on the receiving end of a stapler encased in jello, you might be a little miffed. But everyone around you will remember your surprised face, and they'll get a great laugh out of it too. It's an entertaining way to build camaraderie. And for a lot of the people below, it was also a way to subtly get back at their most annoying coworkers.

Having good coworkers and bosses is key in jobs. You spend a lot of time with them. While you might get to know them over time, you'll also come to discover all of their habits, good and bad. It's not so easy to just tell your coworkers to stop these annoying traits, though. You might have to prank them into stopping, as the people below did. Other people shared their harmless pranks like switching the m and n keys on people's keyboards. I wonder how long their coworkers managed to type like that before they noticed!

Check out this fun thread from r/agjimenez, who requested to hear about the pranks people love pulling at work. Next up, this couple got some satisfying revenge on their HOA, saying, "I was just doing what you told me to do."
