Final April Fool's Update

So one more girl emailed Boss that she wanted to transfer to another office and another mentioned going back to school for her MBA. Then, in the afternoon meeting, we went around and asked each other, "So, Shelly, are you pregnant?" "No, Amy, are you getting a tattoo?" "No, Jane, are you moving?" Then we all looked at Boss and said, "April Fool!" He burst out laughing and said, "Well, I busted one of the conspirators, but I didn't get the other three!" I talked to him before he left and thanked him for being a good sport. He said he was getting suspicious by the third or fourth person, but the only one that was apparent was the girl who said she was eloping. He laughed about it again, so I really think he was fine with it.

I'm glad it went so well! He sounds like a nice guy.

Shauna - I know! He was like, "I'm gonna tuck this in my back pocket." But then before he left, we had a good laugh over it. He said he figured it out pretty early. I think the tattoo one was a pretty big tip. She isn't the type to get a tattoo.

Jess - He is a nice guy, and he has a really good sense of humor. I felt like as long as we didn't do anything hurtful, he wouldn't be mad. I did make sure to point out that you only prank people you like, though. *grin*.
