Practical jokes? this reminds me of one extremely boring field walking exercise where through sheer annoyance of their being virtually nothing to bag I decided to bag a dead mouse and see how far through the system it would go. Several weeks after the job and i'm working on finds when one of the project managers realises the finds from it had not been looked at yet,so across to the finds room he comes and by pure bad luck picks the mouse bag up without looking and pours the rotting contents on his hand,after a few seconds silence he screams one name (the supervisor of that job who was known for HIS jokes) and runs of to give him a verbal dressing down. After his admonishment,sitting in ignorant shock he then came up with one name "dirty dave-i'll kill him!" and then comes over to yell at me,but considering it was pay-back for a joke he'd played on me weeks earlier all I could do was laugh.
And then wait for the payback of the payback of the payback.....}
