I left a company once. Was there with one colleague and we had this kind of code review habit that we looked at each other changes befor merging them to the deploy branch. On my last day I made a dancing cat dance in front of our app as a tiny joke for him. He instead of reviewing just pulled this time and deployed the new version on the companies dev server without a look. So the fist time the cat showed up was appareantly in the first meeting after I left and everyone went completely crazy because they thought they got hacked.
I think they never found the hidden rock roll in the app.4 -
helping colleagues like a troll:
AAA: anyone know what the blabla_type_id column is for in the trololo table please?
AAA: oh and blabla_order while we're at it :)
BBB: ask AAA .... he always knows these
AAA: :)
ME: I would say the first one is id of blabla type and the second one blabla order, isnt it? :)
AAA: you two should work in support :)

And this is how to troll yourself.2 -
My colleague used to leave his computer unlocked when going for lunch etc. We used to do small pranks every now and then, for instance change his keyboard layout.
One of our favorite pranks was to install a "Trololo" extension in his Chrome. It played this https://youtu.be/6S8OsJOP4Bw in the background. His WTF/minute ratio was quite high when trying to figure out the cause of it.
I miss that extension...6
