Prank The CTO

by Kathleen Richards

Greetings, Wooters.

As some of you may know, a few weeks ago our CTO wajeremy was out of the office for the day, so we did this:

Obviously, this is an awesome prank. But now Jeremy will be out of town for an entire week and we need an even more awesome prank to pull for when he gets back.

That's where you come in. Send us your awesome prank ideas (and funny past prank anecdotes/pictures if you've got 'em) and we'll pick the best/most feasible one and actually do it.

A few things to note: we're a fun office, but we're still an office, so we can't do anything dangerous, excessively destructive or messy, or anything that would make people feel uncomfortable in a work environment. Also, the budget for this prank is $100, so if your idea involves, say, a life-sized, fully functional animatronic T-Rex, you're welcome to share, but we're probably not going to do it.

Also, wajeremy is out of the office for the week, but almost assuredly online and possibly (probably?) even reading this right now. But don't let that deter you! Take comfort in the fact that even though it might spoil the surprise a little, there's still nothing he can do to stop this prank since he's all the way in another country!

We'll need to set up the prank on Friday, so send in your ideas now! Of course, we'll share photos of the setup and some reaction shots from wajeremy also.

The future of Woot's awesome office pranks rests in your hands. Don't let us down. Let the pranking begin!
