work getting repetitive

gbyeow: sorry. B’s here
brb
Wait 10 minutes

use one of the discussion rooms

gbyeow: lol
don’t have time la
can’t play this. just April Fools
too many interruptions it’s no longer fun :-(
boss: gbyeow .. not funny
gbyeow: okie. i expect pink slip from you :-)
boss: which one u want
from TNB?
from EndahWater?
gbyeow: erm… pay your own bills :-P
boss: ok time to get back to work
it’s long enough for my heart to be on the floor
time to pick it back up

I wonder what would have happened if I had called him up to continue to prank? I was initially trying to convince all my colleagues to tender their resignation. Too bad everyone wasn’t keen on it. No sense of humour?

Have you pranked today? Tell me about it. Maybe I’ll steal your idea for next year.

Anyway, don’t take today too seriously. Happy April Fool’s Day!
