So one of these jokes is putting chip and sawdust down your trousers whilst you are using a chainsaw? That not a joke that's bloody dangerous! A quick punch in the stomach to the next prick who does that is the best solution, put the saw down first though.

 

I am also mentally 10 or 11 and love a good joke but our workplace is not a good place for it and if doing domestic or commercial what impression does this give to the customer as the boss I would stamp on this in my team. We still have a laugh usually at my expense.

Are they in their own work trucks? If so, tin of pilchards in the air vents & fish paste sarnie under the seat (so they think they have solved the problem)

 

Putting someones chain on backwards is a bit immature...

 

Used to work with a right knob who urinated off everyone constantly but one day we spiked him with viagra & laxatives! I tell thee - he soon wound his neck in ;-)

 

Please reserve this course of action for complete walking penises only

 

Personally I prefer a good old fashioned slap ;-)

Thats why I suggested the lunch box thing . Lunch time not work time .

Last practical joke played on me by a groundy resulted in a set of timber tongs to his head and a lead around the wood until he promised to behave... good as gold afterwards.

You can tell when people are getting old when they start telling people how old they will be on their NEXT birthday :001_tongue:

 

I'll be 97 next year! :001_tt2:

 

I guess its is we're kind of proud to still be in the game, on the tools, at the coal face so to speak.

This just reminded me of an incident when I worked on the roads. We used to warm the shovels up on a gas burner when we were hand-laying, one of the labourers used to think it was funny to not only put the end of the shovel on the burner but part of the shovel shaft, so when you grabbed hold of it you burnt your hand. He did it to a new starter one night, labourer thought it was really funny until the new starter promptly wrapped said shovel around the labourers head. I can't remember for sure but I think it was forty-odd stitches to fix the idiot.
