I have worked at some places where people have worked together for 25 years, it is like family and in that time you would get to know someone and gauge if they would a.) think its funny, b) use it to extract money. If it was a weasely guy with a $3000 suit in an office where it is not required, then you would avoid this prank on him. If it is the guy that everyone likes and wears khaki pants from Work Wearhouse, then maybe you can go for it.
I wouldn't do that prnak only because it would be too much work and I would be worried that it wasn't funny enough to justify it since my prank formula is Prankgoodness=Funny/Work. Funniness has to at least match the increase in work involved.

Nope, no law firm. O&G industry.
I dont often wear too expensive stuff as I have to alot of times get on my knees to fix stuff but the company pays for drycleaning 10X/month so its ok with me. I am like the person in the to which I first responded to.
I keep alot of my dress shirts, Pants, and ties at the office since I walk to work most days and when I get hemming done it is done so that if someone re-hemmed them "a few inches higher" I would look like an idot and in the IT position I am in, appearance matters and if you were to walk into meetings like some bohunk with non cheap dress pants that are hemmed past your sock line it would be very embarrasing and might cause me my job or at the very least would not look prfessional to the Executives who actually run the company that pays my wages and likely suggest to my bosses on my bonus structure.
Canada and Houston are the most strict for the company I work with. Kuwait, Aberdeen, and Singapore are easily the less restrictive with Norway being somewhere in the middle when I have had to go those places.
Kuwait is easily the most fun - only time when a regional manager has taken me out for lunch at a Strippers
- very dodgy mind you but fun none the less.
Last post on the matter since I and the rest of CP obviously differ on what could happen and I will go out on the high note (stippers - I know useless without pics but I dont have anything suitable on a work notebook or photobucket to post
)
