Just wondering what kinda little pranks some of you guys have played on some of the newbies or sales weasels or whoever. Things like sending people to get a box of ohms, not the blue ones but the red ones, or voice coil fluid or the ever popular 6x9 hole saw, or the 4inch to 6x9 adapter plates. I can personal draw a diagram of what a 6x9 hole saw looks like and how it functions to any disbeliever;)

Can't top having the store manager actually calling a customer to tell them their blinker fluid is low. Also had a new installer calling all the stores in the chain for a custom kit maker, he was on the phone for 6 hours.

i had one guy run to a parts store to pick up sparkplugs and carb rebuild kit for a diesel. he came back and said they could not find those in the books or computer.

or you could go with a piston return spring how else does the piston come back up? posted_image or the classic muffler bearings. and btw i have a 6x9 hole saw! they are funky things

I like waiting till someone is installing a flip down screen (Especially if they are new) wait till they are about done, Tell them that they have a phone call or something then take some screws cut the head off them and use rubber cement to glue the rest to the top of the car....

When they get back in the shop have like two or 3 other people standing there just staring and muttering about what he/she did to the car....Last guy I did this to was freaking out for like half an hour....

There are also the Skyhooks, and Lugnut gaskets

Thats the classic one.

I always make sure the FNG knows where the Black Caulk is.

"Oh you mean monkey snot."
"No I mean Black Caulk."

Don't forget such classic shopping items as:

- The Wire or Board stretcher
- Plaid or checkered paint
- Metric Crescent Wrench
- Adjustable Metric Wrench (see above)
- For the Americans.... send the FNG to Home Depot to get a Robertson Screwdriver (Canadians, keep the snickering to a minimum please)
- Your parts distributor always appreciates the call for a price on a flux capacitor

There are a few decent in house pranks you can pull as well:

- When FNG is going out drinking on a work night, you can have a lot of fun the next morning with a piezo mini siren, a drill battery, a couple of NC magnetic reed switches, and his/her toolbox.
- Send them on the coffe run, make sure to ask for one coffee that is extra black
- Wiring a co-worker's horn or alarm siren to the "mist" function of their wipers is always good for a laugh.... 2 extra points if you use a latching relay....
- Firecrackers are always fun when they are putting that fuse into the underhood fuseholder... all you need is one to watch them hit the roof
- Even better if they are doing any soldering/drilling near the fuel tank

There are quite a few more good ones.....

We had one kid going pretty good at the plant I used to work in. There was this hole in the celing that we snuck a rope through (firmly attatched to a beam, of course) and had dangling there. We told him that he had to pull it twice every 15min to keep something or other running, or else there would be problems in the production area.

He pulled that thing like clockwork for a day and a half until we finally let him off the hook (well, and the senior management wondered what the hell he was doing when they walked through one morning)

Good times.... good times..

Wherever I go, that is where I end up......

I once programmed a spare remote to a salesguy's remote start (it so happened to be a used unit he bought from the manager). We would remote start it every couple hours. We told him that we thought he had a frozen coil spring in the remote start unit, that was most likely caused by the brain sitting out in the rain before he got the unit (it was winter in Ohio so everything was frozen). We seriously about had the guy in tears.

Don't forget the old trick of hooking the horn to the brake signal. Thats a classic.

I actually took the time to improve that prank by building a control unit that would keep track of how many times the brake pedal was pushed. On the 10th press it would randomly select one of four patterns to honk the horn. The unit would also pick one of the four patterns if the brake was held down for longer then 45 seconds. This was installed on a Store managers car at CC. It was an instant classic!

back when i was an installer, there was this kid whod come in everyday and loiter around the store. probly like once a month, hed have a do something small to his car. one of our installers, todd, would get really annoyed with the kid cause hed come in every day, ask an hours worth of questions and leave.

ill never forget the day todd had to work on his car. todd comes up to the front and tells the kid "man, we cant work on our car anymore. not only is your gweebo disk bad, but the caniveling pin is loose too. your going to have to take it somewhere else. we dont stock those parts."

he had the kid calling around to see who could fix gweebo disks and caniveling pins posted_image

Well back at the shop we convert those huge house zip ties into snakes. Well we bought a new pack to make some, so me and a fellow installer combined 2 and zip tied our boss to one of the columns in the garage. Took him like an hour to get out of it.

So I guess duct taping the noob installer to a stop sign doesn't count? nothing like leaving him 4 feet off of the ground and unable to free himself. (Don't piss off the boss is what it comes down to, especially when the boss is double your size, hehe).

Air horns are great. We have one off an old Mack, we call it “PUFF”. When someone is in the trunk, back seat or under the dash just grab puff and the air line, let’er rip!!! Gets them every time, never gets old.

Puff gets real fun when you spray a bunch of wd-40 in the big end, light it on fire and blow. Don’t have a car in front of it!!!

The air hose in general gets us in lots of trouble, from making bondo bullets for the blow gun or blowing up 2 liter soda bottles.

Speaking of soda bottles grab one put a bunch of tin foil in it, then fill it 1/3 full with Works Toilet bowl cleaner. Put the lid on give it a shake and get out of there. (Don’t do this one in the install bay)

In August I went to Florida for vacation, on the way back I stopped at south of the border and grabbed some small fire crackers. One box for like $2 had about 40 water proof fire crackers in it. Well my mistake I took some down the shop and we were putting these in everything, a 5 gallon bucket filled w/ water, then filled soda bottles, Snapple bottles, old ported sub boxes, you name it we put a fire cracker in it. (We took the Dynamat spray gun and rigged it up to shoot them out of the tube) Well just when I thought we were done playing my tint guy goes and puts one in the toilet, blew the side right out of it!!!!! A 5 cent fire cracker blew the shhhter up!!!! He bought a new toilet.

My partner has about an 8 inch tint strip on his windshield 17%. Well Matt our tinter cut a silhouette of a male organ out of 7% tint and put it on his passenger side windshield tint strip. He never saw it and we forgot till about 3 days later he came in to tell us his wife found it first, that was funny.

We all need to have some fun in the shop, and we have our share for sure

Tell the Snap-On guy I'm not here!

If you're familiar with circuit city you know about the bench at the front of the shop. We used to screw all the fng's tools down to that bench using back straps and sometimes hotglueing down to the bench. On top of that we used to strip the heads on the screws.

So the fng grabs the dustpan to sweep up the shop and finds that it's screwed to the bench... He grabs his drill and finds that that is screwed down too... he grabs the regular philips and finds that is hot glued down... he throws up his hands in defeat... Kodak moment!

That is what we did when someone quit with notice. His last day we would tape him up to the bench in front of the store.

Don't let the smoke out of your equiptment..it doesn't go back in.

think i'm glad i don't work at some of your shops out there...this one isn't car audio...was at my previous job, i worked at a printing press and each printing unit weighed around 10 000 lbs and nicely bolted to the floor with lie 2 inch think studs going into the concreate floor, anyway, the paper broke and you had to reach under the press to pass it up into the printing unit so we told one of the new guys to get the pallet jack so we could jack up the press to pass the paper through...if the supervisor didn't come around the corner the new guy was going to do his best to get the pallet jack under the press.

Not exactly a shop prank, but how about plugging subs into the wall outlet? That's always good for some laughs...usually we'd only do that with a sub that had a defect other than the voice coil, but one time we were having so much fun that the assistant manager decided to take the open box subs that were never going to get sold and blow them up too.

Here's one for ya. About a year ago a friend of mine totaled his car airbags went off and everything. Well the car was just sitting in his driveway and myself and a coworker ,Eric, stopped by to help him move some stuff. Eric sees the car and his eyes light up. We cut the airbags out of the car took them to work and waited. April 2 we had our chance, a 2002 Mercedes for a flip out came in. We told the customer what we wanted to do. He was cool with it. So we tied the airbags in place in the car. We paged the general manager to the bay and we all took our positions. She comes in, sees the mercedes and me by the sink. The customer is flipping out about us setting off his airbags. She starts flipping out goes to call 911 and we all just busted out laughing. Mind you no one was able to april fools her the day before.

Then you have the ever popular tell the new guy go over to my box and get me a left handed screwdriver.

Windshield Urathane is good for gluing things to walls or celings or floors.... be it a cordless drill, a cellphone, coffee cup/mug, etc. Takes 8hrs or so to fully cure, but is hillarious. The wait is well worth it.

PS: I used to work in a frozen storage facility.... like -35C frozen storage. Used to be good for all sorts of fun. Get someones street clothes out of their locker... put them on a hangar like they are being worn (gotta be crafty), get them wet.... put them up in front of a fan.... in 15min, you have a perfect cardboard like outfit! Sneak it back into the changeroom a min. or so before end of shift, and listen for the cursing....

Or.... shoes, a 5 gallon pail, and water.... you do the math

Wherever I go, that is where I end up......

How to piss off your installer 101. "Ranch" him all day long. Just pop your head into the bay and yell "Ranch"...not sure if you US people had the Wendy's Ranch commercial but it is really annoying, same with the DQ commercial where the dude learns to speak Bee. So ranch can also be replaced with <insert accent here> "It's incredible, I've learned to speak bee". This is best done when the installer is actually working on something so as to provide maximum distraction. A further note to this is that the "Ranch" can be substituted with any annoying add on tv as time goes on.

My installer was "Ranched" about 30 times yesterday and was so frustrated at the end of the day that I was sure he was not coming back.

-------------
Top Secret, I can tell you but then my wife will kill me.

Go find the song "Banannaphone"..... pipe it into the bay. It only takes about 3min for it to stick in your head. Once the yelling starts, shut it off. Give it a couple hours to almost get out of their heads.... then fire it up again......

This is one of the most honest to God annoying songs I have heard in a long long time.....

This one was an instant classic back at *shudder* pepboys.

Our 12 volt tech was installing a remote start in the service managers Pontiac Transport. During which he decided to get cute and wire the interior door chime to the brake switch. When the manager would hit the brakes, all the speakers would *DING* only once.

Took about three days for insanity to take full grasp.

"Here's one for ya. About a year ago a friend of mine totaled his car airbags went off and everything.

Can't get any better than having a customer that's willing to be in on it.

i have got one, have a friend come in a say he needs a box installed in his car get a old piece of carpet and stain it with red paint or ketchup roll it up fill it with a couple of bags of patatoes tie it up good with duct tape and the take some kids toys and fake bloody them up too, dont forget to throw in a pair of handkuffs. now give the car to one of your installers and tell him to install the box. when he opens the trunk watch him look confused for a moment and then pass out

Another very annoying song is Peanut Butter Jelly (I think it's the name). I'll try to find a link to it.

I know exactly what thats from its a DJ's kid he remixed beaverly hills cop theme and put that in there(well part of it). Went o n sirius and explained it one day. I hate the bastard for ruining that song though.

Just doesen't make my employee want to smash his nuts with a hammer as much as bannannaphone...... tried, just got a "what the hell is this stupid song" look out of him.

I still have an idea that involves the air compressor, a latching relay, a magnetic switch, a solenoid, and some train parts.......

I would laugh, I would probably die from laughing from the train "parts" so long as the "parts" are well hidden and unable to be turned off. My suggestion would be to add an alarm with an output to either activate "parts" remotely and turn it off remotely.

A pair of train horns in the rafters, early in the morning, in a dark shop is enough to make any one go back home to get some fresh undies :-)

These things get rediculously loud with only about 80psi at about 1.5CFM..... by the time the 60 gal tank runs out on the compressor, you've had enough.

And, of course, there is nothing like a 3kHz tone through an old JBL 2245 4" compression driver to really make you want to put your head in a vice....... nails on a chalk board have nothing on this.

Wherever I go, that is where I end up......

After high school and before I went in the Navy, I worked for Dynapac. We built asphalt pavers and the like. Myself and another young guy worked on the 20 ton machine assembly line. We had to provide our own tools except for specialty tools and consumables like Loctite which we got in pint bottles. The two of us played pranks on each other constantly with a little escalation in seriousness of the prank with each one getting closer and closer to that line you don't cross, messing with someones tools. Most of us never locked our tool boxes. I came in on a monday morning and thought it odd that the lid was down on my tool box. When I opened it up, I found my tool box loaded with, you guessed it, Loctite. I went off on him for a little while. His response? I guess that's it, I win. When I calmed down, I went and apologized for going off like that and agreed he had won and we agreed, no more pranks.

You probably thought that the story was over like he did! Not so.He went out to lunch and I ate at the plant. When he came back from lunch he saw his tool box on the machine he was building. It was about 1/2 complete. The tool box was sitting on the fuel tank which was made of 3/4 inck steel plate and the hasp was butted up against the radiator guard which was made of 3/8 inch steel plate. He was laughing thinking the prank was me moving his tool box. The smile on his face was removed when he realized the tool box was welded to the fuel tank. That was the last prank! Now the story is over.

Ok, A good one at CC the page on the phone was Ext. 500 (if I remember right) one night while we were closing up page the FNG they have a call on 500.

They pick up the phone and dial 500, all you hear through the entire store is ( hello? hello?) LOL the last one I did took them a few min before they hung up. :)

Another good one was having the snap on guy change the lock on some ones tool box on there day off,

I used to work for this shop along side this 60y/o Armenian upholstery dude. Being old and stuff he was always angry whenever we had to test out our installs by cranking up the volume untill the windows of the building rattled.

Well, in his area he likes it to be totally silent except for his sewing machine. One day another installer goes into his room with a huge 10x10 sheet of MDF and just slams it on his upholstery table. The old guy who wasn't paying attention, screams like Wiley Coyote falling off a cliff.

Oh man, that was the last time anyone messed with that old dude. He got so angry we thought he was going to have a heart attack.

But this isn't really a shop joke but still kinda funny...

Me and the crew were pulling a late late nighter at the shop one night(2am). And the 4 cops stopped by with guns drawn thinking that we were robbing the place. I was explaining to one of the cops that we were working late to meet a deadline. Everything was cool until one of the guys decides to remote start his car which was out in the parking lot. All 4 cops sprint over to the car thinking that someone was trying to get away. Damn near shot the windows out too lol

we cut a tan colored trash bag in half and taped it over the dash and steering wheel of a new expensive car. Waitted for the shop manager and store assistant to come into the shop and I told them that the new guy(who was over in the corner like he was crying with his head down) did it and blew the bags. After about 30 seconds the manager asked "why is there garbage bags taped to the car?"

did the horn to the hi beams of the managers best friends car/ one of the installers roommate. It took a few days but he did it and didnt think it was too funny.

i love the frozen shaving cream one and sirens in the rafters.we fill tool boxes with packing popcorn. also onec when one guy was puttinmg his new alarmm in we programed an extra remote for it. he had window mnods on all windows and his sun roof. we went and filled his car with packing popcorn and then when he was leaving school taht day he remopte started it and let the windows down just to see it flowing out of all the windows. that was great

A few years back when I worked in a computer lab. There were two sides of the lab and the entrance was in the middle. Well, we setup linux on a machine we had in the hallway of the middle of the lab. We would sit down at a computer in the corner, where we could see people walking in our direction ahead of time, and login to the computer and play weird strange music, right where they walked by, and then turn it off. So would have that look on their face like "I wonder if anyone else heard that..."

It was hilarious, because we had a bunch of different sound files and songs, and could remotely play any of them at any volume with perfect timing. hahahahahaha

I miss those days.

Another time, at a different computer lab, I installed remote admin software on one of the computers a student would use. You could see everything they saw on their screen as well as move their mouse cursor and have keyboard access. Did it to one student, and after he saw his mouse cursor move on it's own and having it browse websites, he was freaked out.
