Practical Jokes

I think practical jokes are immature and stupid. And at times, they can inconvenience people or even hurt them. My boss has some "friends" who like to pull such pranks. One almost landed my boss in the hospital.

Today, I got a call from a prospective 'customer' who kept me on the phone for 35 minutes after I was supposed to go home, asking questions about pest control. He would never leave a name or phone number, and I am 99% sure it was one of my boss's idiot friends. But I maintained professionalism, and gave him all the information he asked, and finally he hung up. I don't think I reacted in the way the idiots expected me to. If I find out my boss was behind the joke, I'll have the pleasure of informing him it cost him 35 minutes at time and a half.
