Has anybody ever played a prank on you that went too far?

Let me tell you what happened to my son not too long ago.

He's got a co-worker he's pretty tight with. They've been going back and forth with pranks for a while now. Nothing serious. Just the usual office nonsense.

Well, his buddy decided to take things up a notch.

My son walked out to his car after work and found this waiting for him.

His "friend" had dumped the entire contents of the office shredder into his front seat. And his back seat. We're talking mountains of paper confetti everywhere.

The whole office thought it was hilarious.

My son? Not so much.

Here's the thing. It's gonna take him forever to clean all that up. And he sure as hell doesn't want to pay somebody else to do it.

But he was conflicted. He didn't want to be that guy - the one who overreacts to a joke and makes things awkward. So he laughed along with everybody.

Inside though? He was pissed. And honestly, it's put a weird strain on the friendship since.

When he called to tell me about it, I said, "Son, you handled that a lot better than I would have."

Then he texted me a picture. I about had a heart attack cause at first glance, I thought it was broken glass all over his seats.

The good news is, it wasn't.

My advice to him was simple: 

"Good thing you laughed it off with everybody. Now go buy yourself a few gallons of glitter and pay this a**hole back properly."

What would you have told him?

Enjoy your Sunday!
