Today, I was working alone in the office with my brother. He's run out of work to do, so has been singing Disney songs loudly and badly, throwing stationery at me, and just now snuck up on me from behind and wrapped duct tape round my face. It's just us in the office next week. FML

Today, after a sleepless night, I fell asleep at my work desk. When I awoke, I found my co-workers had duct taped me to my chair. I was yelling at them to untape me, when our boss came in, scolded me for fucking about on the job, and left without saying a word to my colleagues. FML

Today, I walked in on my brother performing voodoo on a doll with my picture taped to its face. FML

Today, my coworkers were bored. To solve this, they taped me to a chair and tried tickling me to death. My boss joined in. FML

Today, at work, I wanted to scare my best friend, who is also my coworker. Thinking that he was cleaning the women's bathroom, I snuck in and right when I was about to scare him, my store director came out of the stall. FML

Today, my co-worker and I played a game where we give each other the bird in whatever creative manner we could come up with. Deciding to be sneaky, I hid behind a wall with my middle finger up as I heard him walking into the office. It was my boss. FML

Today, I went to deliver some reports to my boss in his office. He was facing away from me and ranting about his "useless employees", so I slipped in and waited for him to put the phone down. Turns out he was talking to himself. When he noticed me, he bitched me out and threatened to fire me. FML

Today, my boss was watching taser pranks online, when he said he was going to "get me". We often take turns playing pranks on each other, and I was the last to prank him. Now I'm terrified to move or turn my back on anything other than a wall at work. FML

"If I could turn back time…"

Today, I came into work early to clean equipment, with my headphones on, singing to myself. I lost track of time, and wound up with the entire office watching me belt tunes out. FML

Today, and every day this week, my office mate has decided to "liven up the place" by singing and whistling Christmas tunes and other unknown songs. She has zero musical ability. FML

Today, it was a really slow day at work. One thing lead to another, and soon enough we were all taking turns shoving each other across the office on a swivel chair. Our boss came in during my turn, and I got singled out for a verbal warning. Everyone else got off with a disapproving glare. FML

Next week finish your work twice as fast and start singing rebecca black songs, throwing scissors at him and wrapping him in cling film.

Hm... Seems that your brother is bored out of his mind, OP. If he is entirely done with his work, perhaps you should give him some more to occupy him (I suppose that would work better if your position is above his). If not, it might be time to report to a supervisor. Even if it is your sibling, there comes a time when professionalism is the most important thing to consider. Working in an office is just such a situation. Being fired for not taking his job seriously might get him to think twice the next time.

"Snuck" is not a word. The proper term would be "sneaked."

google "office pranks" for ideas and fight back! office prank wars rule. here is a freebie for you. if his desk phone is black, get some black shoe polish and apply it to the receiver (part where you put your ears). then call him. then laugh but don't say why. see how long it takes him to notice - longer = funnier.
