I Lost My Internship

April fools around my office is a pretty important day.  There are only three of us in the office (Alicia, Ryan, and myself) and we tend to get on each others cases pretty well on April 1st. We all enjoy a good laugh so things can get pretty entertaining.



This morning we all started out with the basic "I quit," statement which got a good chuckle. The person that's willing to take it farthest, "wins." After that each of us had our separate prank.

Alicia's was pretty elaborate. She put speakers in mine and Ryan's desk drawer, and when we were least expecting it she blasted sirens are full volume. Ryan and I both jumped pretty high and it got our heart rates pumping.

Ryan's wasn't too bad, but was definitely the funniest (and probably the meanest).  Ryan said he was going out to lunch and that he would get Alicia and I something. When he came back with his food, and none for us Alicia and I weren't really surprised. However, he went in to his office and pulled out two sack lunches and threw them at us. Inside the "lunch" bags was a slice of stale bread, old cheese, and a rotten orange. Neither of us ate it.

Mine was pretty basic, and happened in the later part of the day so I knew that I had to make it as believable as possible. Before I left on my daily work errands (getting gas, water, ice) I was very verbal when it came to my "headache," and how if I stood up to fast, my vision would call all fuzzy. So I went on my errands and about 30 minutes in to them, I called Alicia and sounded all panicked and sad. I told her I crashed the city care into a light poll because my vision went out and my head hurt so badly. The car was wrecked and they needed to come down to the scene ASAP.

Needless to say, neither of them were entertained.

But I thought it was hilarious.

  1. Hahahah! This post was really entertaining. This April Fools my mom was sick and she is normally the one who ALWAYS gets me on that day! Plus I guess it didn't help that she was in another state. I always put myself on high alert on April 1st! I think I definitely would have fallen for your joke though, it definitely sounded believable to me! Haha
