I used to work in an office with a guy who was really organized. At the end of the day, his desktop was clean, the pencils in his pencil drawer were sharp and all pointed the same way, etc. Our boss whispered to me "Let's drive him crazy." He opened the pencil drawer and turned one of them around.

:lol: Love it! Hope you were there to see the look of confusion.
 
I worked for the USPS as a carrier for my last working 20 yrs. Had an organized supervisor, who would read to us from his computer screen. He would leave daily at 3:00PM and I left at 4:30PM. As I went out the door, I would turn his computer screen around. Took three times and he would stay until 5:00PM, thinking he would catch somebody.
 
When I worked for Safeway,I switch all the $1,$5,$10 & $20 bills around,
as well as the change in the cash drawer.
 
The Kroger grocery head checkers hated it when you just put the bills in the drawer and did not face them all the same way.
 
What's wrong with that? I used to do that all the time.
I would even alternate the $1 bills,when we got brand new ones,with
the old ones.
At work,I like to have everything I can just so,& organized.
 
I did, what I called a "science" experiment when I was working in a building with elevators. Would turn the up and down indicators over so the top one pointed down and the bottom up. Found that lots of people did what the arrows said even when they didn't make sense rather than question why they pointed at each other. The things a young guy finds amusing...
