Office Prank

For anyone who knows me, knows I love my place of employment. The company I work for is an internet marketing company. We basically do the marketing online for small to medium size businesses. I was recently promoted to the Team Lead position in the Account Management department. The attitude of my company is extremely fun. For example, we recently put up a billboard that states "Your mom uses Billboards". It is pretty awesome.

So last week there was a guy in our office to was moving his desk. As he was walking by Keely saw that he had a huge box full of bubble wrap. She grabbed it and made a beeline for my desk. She came over and asked whose desk we were going to wrap. Karleigh, who sits next to me, Keely and I got to work.

We decided to bubble wrap the desk and effects of Caleb. Caleb is right around 6'6, and we decided that he was a danger to himself being so tall. He needed to have his desk Caleb proofed. We wrapped his chair, the waste basket, and the drawers. Then we got to work on his computer tower, computer screen, mouse, and keyboard. Next was his phone, which he needed to use, so we wrapped the handset separately from the rest of the phone, so he could make calls. We also wrapped all of his awards that he won for his blog, his random bottle of Orange Soda, and Gatorade needed to be wrapped as well. Then was his post it note pad, and his regular notepad, we would have wrapped his pen, but couldnt find any bubble wrap small enough.

Here is the finished product:























































Caleb came in to find his desk all wrapped, and he sat that way for at least half the day. Once he unwrapped his desk we had to find someone else to save from themselves...

We chose my boss- he had gone camping for the weekend, and we were worried about his return.
