To wind people up you could ask them to go get a long stand etc..
But a one I had in mind was when you get a bad cold, get the office junior or apprentice etc.. to go to the Pharmacy for you when they're on their lunch to pick up your prescription. Just tell them they just need to hand it in over the counter.
Inside a sealed envelope, place £5 and a written note on a piece paper saying, "I'm very sorry, but I'm very shy and I wondered if you sell extra small condoms". |

I have a lot of fun with people I know, and tease something awful. But it is with people I know well, in an appropriate environment as in laughing with them, not at their expense  |

Why would anyone think humiliating someone was funny? It just seems spiteful to me  |

that's a bit different to asking someone to go to the hardware store and ask for a left handed screwdriver or some tartan paint  |

It would be even funnier if they came back and in front of all your work colleagues said "Here are the extra small condoms you wanted me to get you." |

Good to hear someone else with a sense of humour!!
Depends on your line of work, some professions do this with juniors and apprentices. |

One of my first jobs as a teenager was in an Instore bakery . My first task was to gio to the canteen to fill a bucket (with a lid) with steam for the crusty baguettes . Off I went , naive and eager to please , the canteen assistant filled the bucket from the coffee machine with steam and back I went . Gave it to the guy on the ovens , who opened it , and lol and behold it was empty ! He told me to run back with it as th ebread would be ruined so I sprinted back the second time , and all the bakers were stood waiting , and of course it was empty again . This time they all laughed and the penny dropped .
No harm done , and as time went on all newbies went through the same initiation |

near a big hill in s/ shropshire NOT in |
When I've was training as a mechanic many years ago I was told to go to the store and ask for a box of sparks for the spark plugs and some long stands !!!
I was wise to this and went and had a couple of cups of tea and some biscuits in the canteen for a hour |

I think there's a fine line. The 'wind up' described in the op is bullying and humiliating for the person on the receiving end. Being sent for a long weight or a tin of tartan paint is almost expected and I think most juniors or apprentices are warned by their parents beforehand. |

North of The Wall - youll need your vest |
I took a group of medical students into the sluice to show them a bedpan with a particular stool specimen in it.
Described how they could tell that it was classic melena stool from a gastrointestinal bleed because it looked very dark brown, had a sticky consistency, and then I stuck my finger into the sample and licked it to confirm the classic taste.
Twas chocolate ganache topping from the fudge cake |

The difference being one prank was against a person who was unaware and the other the prankster was the butt of the joke.
I can't afford a psychiatrist unfortunately and to be honest I think I'm too far gone to be helped. However having a different opinion to yours doesn't qualify as being in need of psychiatric attention. |

The suggestion in the OP is a bit shit...mainly because it's not actually funny. But add in a bit of wasting the pharmacist's time too and it's a no from me.
When I had my first Saturday job they tried all the tartan paint, long stand, long weight, bucket of steam stuff but even as a teenager I wasn't that gullible so I'd just use it as an excuse to sod off and not do any work for half an hour or so. |

I'll be honest I don't think the fact that not one poster has thought this funny is down to other people not having a sense of humour |

I'll bail out here, the thread was just meant for fun. It was, IMO, a funny story I heard.
Not sure why ppl are getting so hung up on it and spouting bully etc.. All I can suggest to them is to go and have a shag and have an orgasm to reduce stress. Many need to loosen up.
Some went with the humour, a big thanks to those. Good night folks. |

These things define some people, some think people need wrapping up in Cotton wool and should never leave the house.
Plenty happens to each other at work etc we know each other well, I wouldn't do something that is actually going to offend.
A new one on me a couple weeks back someone poked small holes in my bottle of water around the neck so when I went for a drink got wet! Revenge was I disconnected his van battery! |

Not sure I get this one... the results of the prank are the office junior returns and says in a loud voice, "here are the extra small condoms you ordered" or they keep the fiver and tell you your order wasn't ready... seems the joke will always be on you.

I remember working on site and being sent to the DIY shops looking for things like sparks for the disc cutter, skirting board ladders and left handed hammers and so on but I knew what they were doing. The shop had a cafe inside and id just walk round letting them think they fooled me again and take 2 hours sat down drinking tea and having another sticky bun, walk back and say I couldnt find what they asked for. the silly pricks did it almost daily for about 3 weeks, and to top it all they thought I was the silly prick. |

That's the perfect way to handle it, spot on. |
