Nobody likes annoying coworkers, but this guy has a coworker who sounds worse than most. He calls him D, and although we don’t know what that stands for exactly, we can certainly think of a few things.
“D never shuts up”. “D likes to one-up people. D is loud. D gets upset very easily. D likes to pull rank on people when he has none. D has a very, very short fuse. And I like to fuck with D.”
And as you can see from his hilarious prank, he certainly wasn’t kidding about that last part! He live-commented everything as his brilliant revenge was unfolding, and his funny story has been read over half a million times since he recently posted it online. The moral of the story? Don’t be an asshole at work!

He finished his lunch really quickly.
Same exact thought. Typo maybe?
Really? My lunchtime at work is 30 minutes, often 20 is enough. I wouldn't say that an hour is really quick.
Peitto -- not D, the actual poster. Spent 1 minute at lunch, from 1:09 to 1:10, and had a lot to update afterwards! A jam-packed 60 seconds, apparently! :)
While this is funny to read, it probably more qualifies to "mobbing" than to "pranking", particularly if this guy has a problem with his coworkers anyway.
With Hans on the one. Just hope he doesn't bring a gun or machete to work on Monday. Doesn't sound very stable to begin with!
I think you may need to check what mobbing is, cuz that certainly ain't it. Plus, he was a d**k to them first. Payback's a b***h, maybe next time D will consider that.
I did: "mobbing is emotional abuse in the workplace. "Ganging up" by co-workers, subordinates or superiors, to force someone out of the workplace through rumor, innuendo, intimidation, humiliation, discrediting, and isolation." (Davenport NZ, Schwartz RD & Elliott GP Mobbing, (2005): Emotional Abuse in the American Workplace, 3rd ed. 2005, Civil Society Publishing) Thus, although D. might qualify as an a*****e in most people's eyes, what his co-workers do at least meets the definition of mobbing, as it is not a prank. Pranks are friendly, meant to eventually laughed at by ALL participants.
how mature, and yes, payback is a b***h, and sometimes violent
Hans is an expert on all the things. I think if I worked with Hans, I'd have to do this to him. And I wouldn't care what the proper name for it was.
I am not an expert on everything, I just pretend to be. ;)
Mobbing is usually defined as something that continues over a longer period and not just a one off event. There are a lot of other things which define mobbing but I can't see any of them reflected in this story.
Mobbing is the German word. In English, mobbing is when people come together with say torches and pitchforks and try to run people out of town or lynch them. The word you're looking for is bullying.
Ri: I again refer to Davenport NZ, Schwartz RD & Elliott GP Mobbing, (2005): Emotional Abuse in the American Workplace, 3rd ed. 2005, Civil Society Publishing. To my knowledge, mobbing was heavier used in Germany and also denoted what in the US is bullying. However, there seems to be a distinction between mobbying and bullying in the English literature, too.
It may be a little too much, but we don't know what that guy "pranks" his coworkers with. Either way, this D-guy needs to learn how to chill and at least not be a mean weirdo at work.
Totally with you on this one. Too bad this guy doesn't have any proofs of what his "colleagues" made him endure all day long. He can't take any action against them. :-(
Are you... are you Jim? Is D.... Dwight?!
It says at the top that his name is James, or at least the person who posted this article is
