Winding up your boss

    Does anyone have any good stories of how to wind your boss up? My mate works in a government job which is top heavy of management. Layers of middle management which are basically not really needed. Therefore his immediate manager is not really responsible for firing or relocation of his job.
    He has had enough of being messed about and decided that it is time to dish some back. If anyone has done it or heard of any good (legal!) ones I would love to hear them. For my mate!

    I think not. I have been using this one for two years. Took me long enough to find an appropriate one.

    12 months & a couple of weeks by my estimate...

    i think after hours would be better suited to this.
    the work forum is suited more to questions about how to gain employment/questions about work rather than how to piss off your boss

    There are other boards and fora apart from this which is what I based my timing on. New to boards, not to the online discussion. I take your point, I will move to after hours. Thanks.

    Put his car in Buy and Sell for a good bit less than it is worth, another good thing is a really cheap apartment to let in a really good area, and a 36" Sony TV unwanted gift/prize. And the best bit is you get to see them iritated when they get the call.

    My humblest apologies. I realise now that I must change it asap. You were first and seeing as you have nearly 9000 posts then you should be the sole user of it. I just hope that you can find it in your heart to forgive me.

    WhiteWashMan you're being a spammy moron about postcounts and exclusive avatar rights, you'll get banned for sure when WhiteWashMan sees it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan


    WhiteWashMan is now banned.

    of course, if i wasnt a moderator, im sure it would be funny in some people's eyes.

    everyones a critic.

    and all have lost their avatars and sense of humour...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,276 ✭✭✭damnyanks


    I still like you


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan


    thank you.

    you words of encouragment keep my hope shining in these dark times.

    unlike all the other bástards!

    :)

    My fantasy boss wind-up was to remove the front bonnet badge from my David-Brent-alike boss's precious Mercedes and go into the office with it on a chain around my neck, gangsta style.

    I can just imagine:

    Boss - "Some b*stard has mutilated my beautiful Merc!"

    (sees badge around my neck and turns red and becomes speechless with rage)

    Me - "What is your problem?"

    Would have been worth getting fired for :)

    You're right

    I will start this on After Hours

    Might get some craic there instead of petty arguments about avatars :p
