10 Classic Office Pranks That Never Get Old
http://mashable.com/2013/01/16/office-pranks/
Need to do some of these. What are some other good ones?
1. The Phony Phone Message
Find the number for your nearest zoo. Give your colleague a message to call and ask to speak with Mrs. C Lyon.
2. Suspect Signature
Change a colleague's email signature to read "Lots of love and hugs, [Their Name]."
3. Noise Pollution
Hide a wireless doorbell in your colleague's office/cubicle/desk. Keep ringing it.
4. New Folder
Make your colleague a new folder on his or her desktop. Label it for maximum embarrassment. "My Nudey Pics" works well.
5. The Coin Trick
Stick a coin to the floor in a busy area of your workplace. See how many people bend down to pick it up.
6. Remote Control
Get a wireless mouse with a tiny USB receiver and plug it into your colleague's computer. Give the mouse a wiggle every now and then.
7. Heavy Handset
Find some double-sided sticky tape. Tape your colleague's phone handset down to the base. Dial his number and watch as the entire phone lifts up when he answers.
8. Wrong Number
Collaborate with colleagues to phone your victim repeatedly asking for "Bill." At the end of the day, get someone to call pretending to be Bill asking if there are any messages for him.
9. Sticky Pens
Super glue your colleague's pens to her desk. It's simple, but very effective.
10. Bieber Fever
Finally, why not "decorate" a colleague's office/cubicle/desk with images of The Bieb? They'll secretly love it.

tie their shoelaces to their chair
same trick as mouse but with keyboard, open up word and tell them stuff like "i dont have time to explain, quickly walk toward the exit"
tell the new guy that one of the other employees is gay and has a crush on them
send the new guy to find an item that doesnt exist
if they use google chrome, install the "cage" add on, replaces all pictures with pictures of nicholas cage

^ Actually that would be really easy to do, just set windows to open Word or notepad when Ctrl+Shift+W is pressed, then start typing
If they have the red laser optical mouse you can stick a piece of scotch tape over the laser, and the mouse wont move when they try to use it.

Had to try this out. Installed nCage last night on the home PC and convinced the wife for over an hour that in honor of Nicolas Cage birthday all the images on Tumbler were changed to those of Nicolas Cage.
I personally like newspaper mummifying someone's cube.
A few months ago (don't ask why) one of the guys at work was talking about pooping in someone's drawer in revenge to a prank. So that night I melted a Mr. Goodbar into a log, added some kernels of canned corn, placed the lump on a slab of paper with just a drop of "liquid ass" for odor and slipped that into his cube. The resulting lulz are that of legend.
