Pranks we've played on Brandt:
Stapler in the jello. That was a good one. He posed just like Dwight for the picture.
Disappearing staples. He just keeps on refilling his stapler(s) and they just remain empty. He was a good sport about that one. I think he thought he was losing his mind until he figured out it was a prank.
Blasting speakers. Brandt likes to listen to opera and country (what a combination!!) through his computer speakers. His office is upstairs and most days he's alone up there. Believe me, we can still hear it. So when he goes to lunch, we just turn up his speakers and the volume on his computer as loud as they go. He presses play and Voila! Recipe for disaster. Especially when other employees are working upstairs with him at that time.
Going to the mall. While Brandt was at lunch, we decided to move our cars out of the parking lot (so it was completely empty), turn off all the lights and lock the front door. We put a note on the door that said, "We got bored so we went to the mall. We won't be back." We came in the back door, ran upstairs to Brandt's area and hid. Actually we played hangman on the white board. Brandt came back from lunch about 10 minutes into the game, went to his desk and started working away. Apparently he knew we were hiding but thought it would be funny to make us pee our pants with adrenaline....We sneaked out the backdoor after taking our shoes off, thinking we could go around front and scare him. Well. He locked us out. So now we're out there, barefoot in freezing weather, the neighboring offices are watching us and we're screaming because there is Brandt in the window like a looming Grim Reaper. He finally let us in but not until our feet were frozen and all the Bank of America employees got a good look at us.
