Some people played a May 5 - Cinco de Mayo joke on one of our staff of Mexican heritage. He always came in early to embed and on May 5 one year they set up a cassette recorder on a timer to start playing mariachi music at 5:30 am. Then several of them came into the lab with the fake mustaches, big sombero's, woven ponchos and shakers and singing along with the music.

The guy was laughing so hard he couldn't stand up. In fact he kept laughing all day.

I guess everyone's idea of 'fun' can be different.  A lot of these things sound like a lot of work to 'clean up'.  Funny is different than making a mess to me--just 1 cent worth :-)

Nope.  a fun work environment breeds better workers.
