  • You’re right, but I’d use the word ‘trick’ over the word joke. There is no trick that would pass my scrutiny to be okay at work, that’s why I replied the way I did.

    Jokes like one liners or what stand up comedians do are usually more acceptable in my eyes. I have yet to see a joke used for April fools. If you have an example please share and I might do it next year.

    In the end, I really don’t care, if the joke/trick lands and no one was upset then take the win. You know your environment and are making it a better place.





  • In my mind, there’s a big difference between a quick one liner or a silly dad joke than an April fools “joke”.

    April fools you try and trick someone into something. Like telling someone their socks are untied. It’s rude to the person who you’re trying to trick and they don’t feel good after. If someone believed you’re rolling back to XP only to be told “haha, JK” it’s almost rude… And these are the “nice” ones. Flipping a website upside down or filling an office with balloons… What?

    Jokes should be fun for everyone. April fools is not.
