HOAX at the CHP
An office worker at a California Highway Patrol office was out sick yesterday, 4/1/08. She had turned in her notice to her boss the prior week and her last day is 4/4/08. She decided she had nothing to lose if she played a little prank on her boss. She sent an email at 11:30 am stating that her "plans had changed" and she wouldn't be quitting after all. Her boss, not being the brightest bulb, took it totally serious, calling the Division offices and the CHP headquarters to make notifications. At 2 pm the office worker sent her boss an email with the subject "more info" which when opened said APRIL FOOL! in big letters.
Apparently the boss wasn't any too happy at being had, and set out to write a disciplinary action letter stating the employee had "perpetrated a HOAX" on the CHP. She passed this by the Captain of the area for approval and forward it to the Division and HQ. When the employee came in the next day, she was told the letter was going in her permanent personnel file. Since she only had 24 hours left to work there, 11 of which were vacation hours, she just laughed.
What's funnier?...a boss that doesn't suspect a joke on April 1st, or a boss that makes sure every one above her knows it by writing up the joker as a HOAX PERPETRATOR on a form dated April 1st.
Apparently it doesn't take smarts to get a job with the CHP.
