For those trying to just hold on to whatever shred of sanity and dignity you have left in your office, keep on keeping on with these innocent office dares to make your skull-crushingly dull and boring work hours a little more lively....


ONE-POINT DARES

1) Run one lap around the office at top speed.

2) Ignore the first five people who say 'good morning' to you.

3) Phone someone in the office you barely know, leave your name and say, "Just called to say I can't talk right now. Bye."

4) To signal the end of a conversation, clamp your hands over your ears and grimace.

5) Leave your zipper open for one hour. If anyone points it out, say, "Sorry, I really prefer it this way."

6) Walk sideways to the photocopier.

7) While riding in an elevator, gasp dramatically every time the doors open.

TWO POINT DARES

1) Say to your boss, "I like your style" and shoot him with double-barreled fingers.

2) Babble incoherently at a fellow employee then ask, "Did you get all that, I don't want to have to repeat it."

3) Page yourself over the intercom (do not disguise your voice).

4) Kneel in front of the water cooler and drink directly from the nozzle

(there must be a 'non-player' within sight).

5) Shout random numbers while someone is counting.

FIVE POINT DARES

1) At the end of a meeting, suggest that, for once, it would be nice to conclude with the singing of the national anthem (5 extra points if you actually launch into it yourself).

2) Walk into a very busy person's office and while they watch you with growing irritation, turn the light switch on/off 10 times.

3) For an hour, refer to everyone you speak to as "Bob."

4) Announce to everyone in a meeting that you "really have to go do a number two."

5) After every sentence, say 'Mon' in a really bad Jamaican a! ccent. As in "The report's on your desk, Mon." Keep this up for 1 h our.

6) While an office mate is out, move their chair into the elevator.

7) In a meeting or crowded situation, slap your forehead repeatedly and mutter, "Shut up, all of you just shut up!"

8) At lunchtime, get down on your knees and announce, "As God as my witness, I'll never go hungry again."

9) In a colleague's DAY PLANNER, write in the 10am slot: "See how I look in tights."(5 Extra points if it is a male, 5 more if he is your boss)

10) Carry your keyboard over to your colleague and ask, "You wanna trade?"

11) Repeat the following conversation 10 times to the same person: "Do you hear that?" "What?" "Never mind, it's gone now."

12) Come to work in army fatigues and when asked why, say, "I can't talk about it."

13) Posing as a maitre d', call a colleague and tell him he's won a lunch for four at a local restaurant. Let him go.

14) Speak with an accent (French, German, Porky Pig, etc) during every important conference call.

15) Find the vacuum and start vacuuming around your desk.

16) Hang a 2' long piece of toilet roll from the back of your pants and act genuinely surprised when someone points it out.

17) Present meeting attendees with a cup of coffee and biscuits, smashing each biscuit with your fist.

18) During the course of a meeting, slowly edge your chair towards the door.

19) Arrange toy figures on the table to represent each meeting attendee, move them according to the movements of their real-life counterparts.

FUNNY!!

In the 5 point area - #3 what if you call everyone Ted instead of Bob?

That is the owner of my companies name and there is a standing joke when my associate and I do something wrong - we say - no matter to who it is - "Just messing with you Ted"

It is a humorous joke between the two of us, and it is funny to see other peoples expessions.

This posting provided an entire Friday of fun-filled office entertainment, that's for SURE.

Right after reading, I walked into my bosses' office and and proceeded to:

1) Say to your boss, "I like your style" and shoot him with double-barreled fingers.

hahaha. MORE MORE MORE.

 

Yes! We have participants. Everyone try to do one thing from this list this week. I promise you, you will get a great laugh out of it! Come on, life is for living. Have some fun with it!

Ha, I did this on Friday! I did two of them at the office. I'm in a really cool workplace now, my boss is really cool. So, I wasn't afraid. Here are the ones that I did.

2 Points:
5) Shout random numbers while someone is counting.

5 Points:
2) Walk into a very busy person's office and while they watch you with growing irritation, turn the light switch on/off 10 times.

That's 7 points!

I got 2 - 5 points for the Ted (Bob) thing today.

The people are funny, they actually will look to see if Ted is around - and get a bigger clue- he is in my Corp. office in GA . . .
