It's things like this that make me glad I work in an evironment where going to the mat room and beating the ever-loving-bejesus out of each other is an accepted way to solve interpersonal issues.
Field Station Korea, 1985. I had a 19 year-old female walking all over the compound trying to find a fallopian tube to replace a damaged vaccuum tube used to tension tape in a large Honeywell broadband system. She never reported me and we laughed about it (and learned from it). Different era man...
How many of you ex service members that carried a technical MOS remember ID10T [eye-dee-ten-tee] kits? Or..."go get me some flight line" or [insert a thousand examples here]
In our field many have one of those 20"X20"x12" tool boxes with the fold out pockets for tools. One person kept talking my tools so I got all my tools back, opened his box, emptied a full can of expanding foam into it and shut the lid. :)
We also have been known to play many games with electricity like have fights with portable defibrillators, Wiring the metal on a workbench hot, wrapping fine coil wire around the lugs of a plug and playing "Hot Potato" with very large caps. [Coffee]
After reading the careerbuilder website, I never thought I was working with the bullies.
I always thoguht I was working with @ssholes/b1tches.
There are two individuals in the organization, one of whom I had not even spoke to or emailed in over a year, who I was specifically told to be "nice" to during the last annual review.
The fact that they are both arrogant assclowns who are woefully ignorant of basic engineering principles doesn't seem to matter, I'm the bad guy for not tolerating their bs.

One time, I hacked the computer program we used to log our equipment maintenance.
The guy who originally wrote it was a jerkoff, so I made it that whenever he entered his ID it spit out an error telling him he was not an authorized user.
I wasn't there, but the other guys told me he was cussing up a storm.
I remember a lot of good pranks from my days as a machinist and in the oilfields! Good times. Can't get away with that kinda shit now though. I've read several good office-type pranks, the one that sticks out at the moment is unplugging someone's mouse and connecting a wireless one, that you control from your desk while the victim goes nuts.
I've seen the result of a can of Good Stuff going off in someone's toolbox by accident, it was awful! I can't imagine doing that to someone on purpose. But I can imagine many uses for it on some pricks' car. A small hole drilled in the exhaust system, tube from the foam can poked inside the hole, exhaust pipe filled with foam......oh my. The possibilities are endless.
I have a supervisor that is condescending and rude...and that's if I can get him to acknowledge my existence. Do I care? Hell no. The way I see it, the less he talks to me, the less chances I have of getting pissed off an putting myself in trouble.
