So I usually try to pull a prank of some sort in the office. I saw this website and thought this would be a great one to try this year. The setup was great. We had someone in working on the copier earlier this week as a unfortunate coincidence. I posted the sign last night and had the Financial Administrator send out an email this morning regarding a software upgrade. Trap was set – all we had to do was wait for someone to use the “upgraded” voice commands.
After a solid three hours of no one using the copier I decided to get another staff member in on the action. He did a great job “using” the voice commands and immediately we had buy in. It took a minute for the other staff in the area to figure out it was a prank. This is definitely something that should be tried in a larger office. Could be hours of fun.
Close up of the sign and a link to the PDF after the jump. Thanks to Candace and David for putting the pieces together and making this work.
Somebody posted one like this on the big copier at my office. 😉
