i had an old manager who was... shall we say extremely anal retentive? this is a guy who would take the time before he went home each night to double check that all of his pens were either capped or turned so ballpoint was retracted.
anyway - i knew he was going to resign, so the day before he did, i went to work 2 hours early and turned everything upside down.
everything was in it's normal spot but upside down. bookcases, desk, chair, computer, pen holders, business card holder, pictures, every plaque on his I love me wall... i even turned his chairmat upside down.
it was pretty damn funny. but then he came in and saw it. he was almost crying when he left and said he wouldn't come back until tomorrow. oops.
