No more work!

Yesterday was my last day at work (XTO Energy) and although the company is incredible and the people are great, it's kind of nice knowing I'll be on a two year vacation from work. In honor of my retirement, I talked a couple of coworkers into helping me pull what I think of as a pretty good prank on my boss (William). We nabbed a giant sized roll of cellophane from the company store room and started wrapping everything in his office. We wrapped books, binders, calculators, pencils, anything we could find until we ran out of cellophane.




To further the prank, Nicki, a graphic design coworker, photoshopped my face onto a ton of pictures of famous people (you know, Mr. T, Hulk Hogan, David Hasselhoff, etc.) and hid them conspicously throughout the room. The goal is that in a few weeks or months my boss will be in a meeting and pull out a binder and see my smiling face on Napolean Dynamite's body. Of course, if I had known she was going to do this, I would have requested awesomer people, like Superman or Bilbo Baggins.

I think it took William the good part of an hour to get his office somewhat functional again. (I forgot to mention that we took the "G" and the "P" off his keyboard). Every now and again throughout the day I heard him yell, "I found another one", as he was looking through his office.
