OTOO

So, this is the beginning. Not totally sure how this is going to work, but figured that I'd share with anyone willing to listen. Hopefully you'll find some of it humorous, some of it inspirational (if it inspires you to do great and wonderful things, cool, but I'd be just as happy if you recreate some of my pranks) and basically all of it random. A friend suggested that I create this as a way of documenting the discombobulation that is my thought process. While nobody's really ready for that much knowledge, I'll post tidbits. More of a peephole than a window. Got to leave them wanting more!

Ok, so first thought. A coworker is out of the office (OTOO) for a couple weeks. I want to make sure that he knows that we noticed his absence. I've spent far too much of my day trying to come up with something to do to his office and since we just recently covered another coworker's desk in foil (I'll post that later), we can't do that.

Option 1: So, I'm thinking about suspending his desk about 3 ft off the ground. I figure that I can get some chain or possibly light cable, run it up through the ceiling to the girders and have it suspended pretty well. I'd also like to suspend his chair, so that if all works well, he'd actually be able to sit in it. It might be worth if for the pictures alone! There is one minor drawback to this idea. My office, while being very forgiving for nearly everything I've done, might frown upon my cutting holes in the ceiling tiles. Not to mention, there's the very real possibility of him getting crushed into nothing, should the contraption fail. While I'm more than willing to overlook these minor possibilities, I must take them into consideration.

Option 2: We have about 20 old desktops, some of which still have their hamster wheels and hand cranks. I'm thinking that I can arrange them, under his desk and chair, to make a raised platform. It would (probably) be safer and could still be used as a fully functional desk. This is probably the more likely scenario as the death toll would probably be a little smaller should there be catastrophic failure.

Now, I must go recruit a minion to help. My previous partner in crime isn't in our office anymore and a suitable replacement hasn't really emerged... It's lonely at the top...
