It's Friday, and that means that cubicle warriors from all over are looking for ways to kill time until the weekend.

Maybe you're watching YouTube videos of a gentleman named Namskie from Minnesota, covering hit pop songs from the '80s (and if you weren't already, you are now. Bam).

Wait, what's that? You already know how to add excitement to your workplace with crazy parties and pranks you saw it on an old episode of The Office?
