If you're the head of the Halloween party committee at your workplace, these work-friendly pranks are the best of the best for getting your coworkers into the spooky spirit. Enjoy!

Special Delivery

This classic trick is perfect for the office that's constantly getting deliveries. For those of you who want to prank without spending a fortune, this trick is the perfect thing. Simply plant a big cardboard box in your favorite coworker's office and pretend like it's a gift from another company. When they open it up, give the gift of a surprise you in a ghoulish Halloween mask! Believe us when we say they should see it coming... but they won't.

The Intern

Anyone have a scary scarecrow or skeleton decorating their front yard this year? Good. You'll definitely need one for this creepy office prank! Just haul your scarecrow out of the front yard and dress him up in an old work uniform. If he looks too friendly, creep him out with a cheap Halloween mask from the nearest party store. Have a friend help you carry your new employee to the the desk of another favorite coworker before the workday begins. Plop him down in one of the affordable fabric task chairs behind their desk, making sure none of his straw scratches anything. For that final touch, give him a visitors badge with a name, close the door, and wait. Your coworker will never expect it!

The Boss Wants To See You

Remember those birds from the Windex commercials? This looks something like that! This prank is perfect for any doorway that is highly trafficked in the office (for example, the boss's office,  the break room, conference room, or just wherever you keep the printer). With a few extra hands for help, pick a doorway and get some clear packing tape or saran wrap. With the door open, pull the tape or saran wrap taught then tape it to the edge of the door frame at head level. Make sure the door doesn't stick to it when closed. Finally, sit back and wait for a coworker to get a face full plastic!

They Can Run, But You Can Still Hide!

Hiding is perhaps the oldest, most affordable prank in the book, and with a Halloween costume, you're definitely guaranteed to get a few screams out of your coworkers this year. Get the bosses permission before you come to work in a costume, especially if it's not Halloween yet, and let the fun begin. There are all sorts of places to hide in the office - squeeze behind large executive desks, wall cabinets, bookcases for storage, shelving, doorways - anywhere you and your costume can fit! As soon as someone walks by, jump out with a big noise! 

* Bonus: If you're in a full-on scary costume, sometimes you can hide in plain sight. Just sit down in an unexpected place and do something nonchalant until someone walks by. It will be a surprise they're never expecting!

Creepy Crawly Cubicles

Got cubicles and modular workstations in your office? Then this prank is the one for you! Simply purchase a few creepy crawlies from a Halloween store and hide them in somebody's cubicle. Inside drawers, on top of retractable keyboard platforms, and underneath desks make excellent hiding places for bugs. For the grand finale, attach a big plastic tarantula to a piece of fishing line. When your cubicle neighbors aren't on the phone, covertly lean over the top of your cubicle and dangle the spider into theirs, right in front of their faces. Don't forget to jiggle the string for an extra creepy crawly effect!

Ogres Are Like Onions

This one is for whoever is making the caramel apples for the Halloween office party on friday. While you're going about making your deliciously sweet caramel apples, go ahead and prepare a few onions for dipping too. Cut off the pointy ends to resemble more of an apple shape, stick with a skewer, and roll them around in that sweet caramel sauce! Take your surprise to the office party, and watch your tricky treat make it's debut! Hey, everyone needs their fiber. 

It Came From the Break Room...

Finally, a chance to put all those office computer accessories and printing machines to good use! For this article, we've saved the best for last, and though this prank has been circulating around the internet a lot recently, we'd have to say it's definitely perfect for the office break room! To do this prank, go ahead and take photos of your head looking dead eyed and zombie-like. Take one from the front and one from each side. In a photo editing software, merge all the photos together with your frontal shot in the center and your profile pics on the sides. 

Next, take your edited photo to a local copy store or print it yourself and laminate it at work. Finally, fill a large jar with green water (green achieved with food coloring), roll up your photo, and drop it in the jar! Your final product is the most suspicious thing anyone has ever left in the break room refrigerator - "Mike's: Do Not Eat!"

We hope you've enjoyed these harmless Halloween pranks to freak out your coworkers. Remember, while most of these pranks are work-friendly, the office is still a professional environment. Be sure to get the bosses approval if you think you have questions about any of these. Have fun, and stay safe!

Happy Halloween!

Office Q & A: Advice for Reception Desk Shoppers

Shopping for a new reception desk can be a fun and rewarding experience for your business. However, if you don't ask the correct questions and prepare accordingly, this process can be quite the headache! In today's post, we've compiled the 7 most commonly asked questions by reception desk shoppers to remove the stress from your office makeover project. Enjoy!

Q: Where do I start?

The all important, and most commonly asked question by all office furniture shoppers! Before you begin looking at new reception desks online, take a step back and create a plan. You'll first want to measure your space to determine which size station will fit best for your particular area. Next you'll want to set a budget that your business can live with. Finally, determine a reasonable date for your project completion. Once you've tackled these three steps you'll be off to a great start and ahead of the curve!

Q: How long do reception desks take to ship?

Shipping times vary based on manufacturers. In stock reception desks will typically ship within 2 business days. Made to order reception desks average around 3 to 5 weeks. Custom reception desks can take even longer depending on your specific needs and space requirements. Based on your allotted project duration from start to competition, knowing these basic estimates should save you valuable time when shopping. Before purchasing your reception station of choice, contact your dealer to inquire about estimated ship times. This will provide very helpful insight as to when you can expect your products to arrive and will allow you to plan accordingly.

Q: What manufacturers are best?

This commonly asked question will tend to have varied answers based on the dealer you select for your purchase. That being said, you can never go wrong with brands like Mayline, Cherryman Industries, Global Total Office, and OFM. These industry leaders offer an excellent selection and wide range of reception desks to fit any budget. Manufacturer and product reviews are also widely available online and should be sourced before purchasing to help you make a more informed decision.

Q: What finishes are best for my space?

Selecting a furniture finish is a very important step that should not be rushed. Meeting with an interior designer to discuss your reception area makeover can provide helpful insight as to what finishes will accent your space best. In addition, textile samples are available free of charge from most furniture dealers. This resource should definitely be utilized! In 2014, darker finish options like mocha, espresso, and black cherry have been trending. Classic tones like cherry, maple, and mahogany are also safe choices that will always top the charts in terms of popularity.

Q: How much storage space do I need?

Any industry professional will tell you that now office makeover project is complete without the right combination of storage components to keep your space operating effectively! Take the time to determine what is and will be stored by the receptionist on a daily basis. This will better inform you as to how much storage you'll currently need while budgeting extra room for future growth. When shopping for a new reception desk, you'll no doubt run into models that include storage components such as pedestals and file cabinets along with models that require you to buy storage solutions separately. In most cases, one or two file pedestals situated underneath your reception desk counter will get the job done and additional storage pieces can be added later if needed. Many of the top reception desks will include a pedestal for your space. A single two drawer lateral file cabinet can also be a big help and should be considered.

Q: Is it hard to assemble a reception desk?

In most cases a reception desk can be assembled effectively by two people in about 2 hours from start to finish. While assembly isn't necessarily hard, it can be confusing and will require some heavy lifting. Professional installation services are available and should be considered to ensure safety and a job done right. If you're planning to install the reception desk with a partner, be sure to have basic tools like screwdrivers, allen wrenches, and a socket set on hand. In addition, you'll want to keep in mind that reception desks are often large and contain an abundance of packing materials that will need to be disposed of.

Q: Which models are best sellers this year?

In 2014, a variety of reception desks have emerged as best sellers. The OFM marque line is a top choice for modern applications and users looking to take on installation as these versatile stations actually require no tools for assembly!

Cherryman's Verde line is a preferred choice of interior design teams and industry professionals alike. These rectangular and L shaped reception desks offer modern appeal at a price point any budget will appreciate.

The Evolution of Office Chairs

Your chair has a long history. Most never think about it, but like all great inventions, there was a time when the common office chair wasn't so common as it is today. However, the dawn of the industrial age brought about a huge need for new and improved seating; seating mobile and versatile enough to hold up to the demands of the workplace! In today's article, we'll explore the history of trend setting office chairs from the 50s all the way up to now. Enjoy!

1950s

Looking at pictures from the busy 50s, you may recognize a lot of the task chairs in the photos… as drafting chairs. Actually, the chairs of the 1950s workforce looked much like the minimalist metal drafting chairs we are used to today. However, this design was very poor for those spending all day at a desk or typewriter. Most had little back support, if any, and nearly all common office chairs were armless. Little padding served to cushion the users on these vintage metal chairs. This would ultimately deem them impractical for office use, but with simplistic design and durability in tow, these classic office drafting chairs still find a place in studios, and other rigorous work environments!

1960s

Chairs in the 60s were not so much more advanced in design than those of the 50s, but anyone sitting in a chair all day could tell you cushions go a long way! The landmark invention chairs of the 60s brought to the party were the widespread use of cushioned seats. Back support also began to become more substantial in these later models, so users could benefit more fully from backrests. Of course, visual appeal also made it big in the 60s. To this day, office chairs with vintage style still remain super popular!

1970s

The 70s is the age most people start to think of as "retro," and with all the cool vintage chairs out nowadays, we can surely thank the 70s for their style! The office chairs of this groovy era were not only more stylish than those of the past, but they were also more functional. 70s chairs had much more cushion for users and larger backrests for superior comfort. Armrests were finally beginning to make it on the scene, as well as the luxury material everyone is after - leather! The 70s were big on smooth vinyl and brown leather office chairs, and even after four decades, this cool retro style still hasn't faded away. Today, 70s styled retro chairs with modern features are a favorite of interior designers the world over!

1980s

Enter the digital age! The 1980s is largely where the offices of the past finally begin to resemble the offices of today more closely. The rise of the digital era brought about a greater need for more comfortable chairs as more and more employees were spending longer hours seated at their computers. Today's computer users can thank the 1980s for the basic design of their ergonomic computer and task chairs, which have become the most prevalent chairs in virtually every office. These early modern chairs boasted comfortable designs, cushions, backrests, armrests, and even some of the first ergonomic features like tilt and height adjustment! 

1990s - Today!

Finally, we're in the home stretch! A lot has happened to the office world between the 90s and today, but one thing is for sure, innovation has never looked better! The 90s was the start of the office world as we know it today, with computers, phones, and other high tech equipment becoming mainstream. These past few eras have seen the rise (and fall) of cubicles, cellphones, laptops, tablets, and a whole host of other indispensable work technology. But one need has never changed: the need for office chairs. 

The 90s began a race between manufacturers to provide the ideal seat for office workers. Chairs got more comfortable, more ergonomic, and streamlined for use in every environment imaginable. Today, modern chairs for conference use, guests, receptionists, executives, interns and trainees, and computer users all boast sophisticated designs geared for every task. Adjustable ergonomic features enhance workplace versatility and improve office comfort. Thanks to the combined efforts of previous eras, the chairs of today have never looked (or felt) better!

Are You Getting The Most Out of Your Drafting Chair?

The proper use of your drafting chair will make you a more effective designer, artist, or architect. That being said, drafting chairs are commonly left unadjusted and full potential in the workplace is never reached. In today's post we'll highlight 5 of the various ways you can improve your sitting experience and achieve higher comfort while operating from your drafting chair.

1.) Adjust Height

If you find yourself hunched over while working or reaching up regularly from your chair, there's a good chance a simple height adjustment will help you operate more effectively. Most drafting chairs adjust easily via simple lever underneath the chairs seat. Those who use ergonomic seating properly often adjust chair height numerous times per day to minimize body movements and improve posture. Try adjusting your chair height to find a comfortable position that works best for you and your body and don't be afraid to adjust multiple times for a variety of applications!

2.) Practice Good Posture

Practicing good posture is just plain smart. Sitting upright and ergonomically correct will ensure good blood flow and more comfortable days at work. Various studies have shown that those who operate from a slouched or hunched position reach high levels of fatigue much quicker and thus operate at lower levels of productivity. Meeting with your physician to discuss your sitting position will provide valuable insight as to where you can improve posture at work. You can also visit several excellent ergo friendly sites online with posture tips for improved performance while working from your drafting chair.

3.) Lumbar Support

Lumbar support has become a standard feature on most drafting stools in 2014. The industries top brands have added this feature in both adjustable and integrated styles to help users operate more comfortably. If your chair has an integrated lumbar support, you are already reaping some very helpful benefits. However, those using a drafting chair with adjustable lumbar support will have a distinct advantage... if they take advantage of the feature! Be sure to test your chairs lumbar support feature while working. Try a few different settings and determine which ones work best for your specific work style. Low back pain is a major concern when working and the proper use of your chairs adjustable lumbar support will have you ready to defeat this common issue.

4.) Adjust Arms

If your chair is outfitted with fixed arms it may be time for an upgrade! Adjustable arms are a must for those long days at the office. Interior designers, architects, and artists will all benefit greatly by using a drafting chair with height and width adjustable arms. Brands like Mayline, Global Total Office, and Eurotech offer a variety of affordable models to consider. If your chair already has adjustable arms it's time to put those bad boys to use! Throughout the day, try adjusting to various heights and widths while working. You'll find more support and comfort in no time at all! It's sad to say that most opt to add all the bells and whistles possible on their chair but commonly fail to use the features properly. Don't be afraid to test your chairs limits and reach your full potential.

5.) Adjust Back Angle

Most well made drafting chairs offer a tilt feature that will allow you to adjust the chairs back angle with the pull of a lever. Do you ever find yourself working from an angle that your back has no contact with the chair back? If so you're not alone! Many of us are so used to accepting this common practice that regularly leads to back problems. Adjust your chairs back angle while working throughout the day. When computing, drafting, and drawing we typically lean forward to engage in our works. Tilting the back of your chair to meet the curve of your body will provide better support while simultaneously improving your workplace functionality.
