Not a really funny prank unless you can pull it off yourself, and it's
harmless... I'd say impersonating someone isn't a great idea.
Generally, if the person you prank doesn't have a sense of humor and is
your superior, you end up getting fired. I'd think twice about your
funny joke, or it could be on you in the end. Someone else may end up
feeling silly, but you'll feel stupid when you no longer have a job.
Is it _really_ worth it?
