We have a teller who is always goofing off and trying to scare the other tellers and such. We are trying to find a good way to get him back. Any ideas?
He has a beta fish on his teller window, we were thinking of switching out the fish with a gold fish and see if he notices.

Get some friends to come in and ask for change for Monopoly money! If you can get a few different people to do it a fe times throughout his shift, it should be amusing.

Get home ahead of your loved one. Turn off all lights except for a barely luminous light in a dark corner in one room, and make sure the other lights will not work. Be partially leaning against the wall in a crouch near the barely luminous light, with your face painted yellowish white or greenish white, your hair mussed up but hanging over your eyes a little, and make sure your clothes look like they have not been washed for sometime. When your loved one looks in at you in the very lowlit room, only turn your head very slightly keeping it tilted down but eyes looking up at him/her, and smile.

April Fools will never be the same.

Take $200 out of his teller drawer then watch him sweat as he tries to balance at the end of the night.

Inform him that he will be terminated if he can't come up with the $200 and a SAR will be filed because he's suspected of insider abuse.

Then, tell him you have him on camera making out with another employee. All of this will lead to his downfall and ruin his career in banking.

Then see if you can trick him into buying weed while on company time. When he does, inform him that it's part of a sting being run by the local police.

Finally, tell him you will allow him to put his own money into the drawer so long as he gives you $100 to keep quiet.

In the end, you make a cool $100 bucks! Everyone wins!

Do a Control Alt and the left, right or down button at his station. It will turn the view and mouse control.

Have someone call into the branch, request him and indicate they would like to meet after work.

Conspire with everyone else to slip a nonsense word into every conversation with him: "So, can you believe the customer? I don't know what gets into some of this turtles some times." "Uh, Paul, can you pass me that turtle." "If it wasn't for the turtle, I would have been late to work today." or some variation, just to cause confusion.

Have a manager or security officer send him an email about a pressing issue that must be talked about later in the day, and they're not at liberty to discuss further.

Have his car towed.

This would probably scare me more than anything in the world. Hope there's no weapons around.

Or, make some weed brownies after you've arranged for a branch wide drug test.

Tell him you overheard that he is the subject of a suspicious activity report. That'll fix his aass. But make sure the manager is in on it.

A favorite at my old office was to take someone keys and move their car. Happy Hunting!

We would also get into Word and auto correct "the" the read "I'm a dork" or something like that.

We did that to one of our roomies during college. Emptied out all the drawers from his dresser and moved them into other drawers.

wouldn't you actually make $300 on this swindle? the $200 you stole (not really "stealing" as pranks are humorous, fun and not malicious plus i think the penal code makes a "pranks" provision) from the drawer plus the $100 bribe money?

Find out if he's allergic to anything then lace his food and/or beverage with it.

drug him witha very effective sedative and then undress him... take lots of innappropriate pictures of him and fellow coworkers/animals, inanimate objects, and then email then from his email account to the president of the bank with the subject
"Have I got something to show you!"

Wait until he goes to lunch, then hit the hold up alarm.

When the police arrive, describe him as the robber and his car as the getaway vehicle.

Remember to add that he was armed with an automatic weapon.

Late at night, on March 31st, arrange a "SAW" like maze within the branch.

Make sure he's the first and only one in that morning. When he's trapped in some sinister looking device he will be forced to choose a loss of a limb or death.

You can then post this on Youtube.
