Let's face it: Printers don't work. Ninety percent of the time, they're out of paper, low on ink, unplugged, hibernating, or just plain not functioning. In this digital age, it's hard to believe we even need them at all. Seems like Apple should be able to make a phone that would do everything a printer does, including break right when you're farthest away from the person who can fix your problem. The only reason printers exist at all is to make fax machines feel better.
Squirrels, on the other hand, don't make anyone feel better. In theory, they're cute, but take away their tail and what do you have? A rat with good hair. Squirrels are the animal kingdom's version of every blond cast member of "Survivor" since the turn of the century.
Why not combine these two irritants and introduce them into your office environment? (Please note: We are not advocating releasing live squirrels into your workplace. Our hard and fast rule for pranks is that anything that necessitates the involvement of Animal Control is not a good idea.)
Rather, we invite you to hang this sign by the printer:

People will use the printer anyway, because they will assume that there could not possibly be a squirrel in there. (Fools.) However, you will have printed this picture on each sheet in the printer, ahead of time:

Every sheet of their print-outs will then have a picture of this disturbingly cute squirrel on it. Upload a picture of this hanging in your workplace, and we'll award a $25 Amazon.com gift certificate to the picture that makes us laugh the most by next Tuesday, February 14, 2012.
Because there is nothing more romantic than squirrels.

I would do it but everyone in my suite would immediately know that it was me who did it. I might be able to sneak into one of the other areas of IT whilst nobody was looking.

I am the squirrel in the machine.
I thought you were the man in the box. Didn't you snuff the rooster?
