I know very well this type of workplace jokery from fellow colleagues. I've been the butt of jokes at work in the past.
The trouble with this sort of thing is that it may be funny for 5 minutes, but if carried on too long, just becomes a form of stupid harassment.
Those doing this will have their turn eventually and I would wonder if they would think it as funny.
