This guy at work constantly slacks off, surfs the web and only works when he's called upon.
No, wait... That's me!

When I get phone calls saying that they won't be in today because they got their period and horrible cramping and blah blah blah. I don't wanna hear the @#$/^&* details! A simple I won't be in today is all that is necessary!
The thing is they probably don't have anything and just want to make you uncomfortable so you don't ask anymore questions
I had a few mates at high school that would tell the male gym teacher that they could go swimming because they had their period. Every time they would get out of gym with no questions asked... this would happen every week!
The a-hole (possibly the cleaning crew) who steals money out of people's desks after hours.

How about the co-workers who play jokes on people, but when you play jokes on them..... they will get upset and become crybabies.

there are 2 things in life I'm serious about 1) my family. first & foremost. 2) my work. whatever I may be doing, I plan on doing it well since I take pride in my work.
about 2 weeks ago, a joker at work did a no-no & switched my welder from 2 step to 4 step while I was welding and in a difficult position. got to the end of my weld & let go of the trigger. the wire kept coming and was arcing as I pulled the nozzle away from the steel. I went into instant fury mode. I now had a tight spot that needed extra cleaning that I couldn't get to with a grinder.
something I think we can all agree on: don't flocc with someone's family and don't flocc with their work.

i don't know flocc about welding, but that sounds like it borders on dangerous
would not blame you one bit if you 4 step welded the joker in a difficult position. If that's a thing you could do and it would hurt

I have been known to find a unlocked computer (still) and draft out a email stating the persons undying love for the boss and NOT send it, then lock the workstation and continue on as if nothing happened. Harmless but gives the "Look what could have happened" message to the person. I always get a laugh out of the messages people post on friends and family's FB accounts when they leave it logged in (harmless and obvious that it did not come from them). Then there are pranks like clear tape on the mouse ball (or optical sensor) which makes the mouse not move and the Ctrl-Alt-Arrow key to rotate computer screens to have that direction be up. Now there is a line and that is drawn to messing with someones tools, or other equipment where someone could get hurt or damage someones property.

A guy at work had his VOIP ringtone change to a Justin Bieber song and sound turned all the way up while he was away from his desk - as soon as he sat down he got a phone call and the hilarity began!
On the welder one I have heard some old-timers recall having their steelcap boots tack welded to the platform they are standing on - better prank than messing with their workmanship

Try that - modern copiers won't work.
The trick where you make a screen grab of the person's desktop and save it as a wallpaper was a classic. Be sure to hide their icons so the image is all that displays. Lots of laughs watching the poor schmuck clicking away on icons and nothing happening.

Learn something new every day. Now just to see if and when the FBI show up.
Taping pop-rocks to wheels helps bring out peoples first reactions well.
I think you are referring to those paper twists that pop when you throw them on the ground. In college I used to use those and set them on top of the door. When my roomates would come home the doorframe would knock them off and they would pop behind them. Worked brilliantly.
People who pretend to know what they're doing, even if when they don't.
If you don't know how to do something, just ASK. No one will get angry if you ask. If you just do it, and you screw it up, then people are going to be upset.
I'm don't mean to stereotype on races or anything like that but....
We share the third floor, and bathroom, of an office building with a new software company. There is a middle-aged Asian man who work for other company that is constantly blowing his nose and emptying his mucus membranes in the sink. He doesn't wash out or wipe out the sink when he's done. He just leaves his leavings in the sink for everyone else to deal with. First of all, that's ****ing disgusting. I don't care if it's culturally acceptable in Asia, but this is America. We have tissues. We do not blow our noses into public bathroom sinks that we use everyday. Perhaps, I'm a terrible person, but SARS and Avian Flu didn't happen that long ago. Use a tissue like everyone else or do you business on some other floor's bathroom.
I seem to really like keeping up with this thread but in the same topic I worked with some people of a different ethnic descent from myself and they would wash their hands, then use those hands to spoon water into their mouths/faces then spit it back into the sink. After that they would go back to work. If your mouth is touching your hands you should wash em again and NOT touch my food thankyouverymuch.
