Everyone needs to blow off steam and thankfully, our management acknowledges this. We have a Toy R Us next to our building and it's a great "armory". We've been stockpiling NERF weapons and ammo between departments.

Dual blasters are my weapons of choice:

Anyone else participate in office warfare for stress relief and camaraderie? What are your weapons of choice?

    We go all out!!! We have boxing gloves, pugil sticks, martial arts gloves, rubber batons etc etc.

    When we do office wars though we usually have to take the next day off due to injuries. Its a great time though!

    I use to keep a 6 shot elastic band gun in my desk drawer for such occasions. Also at that same office, markers were turned into projectile weapons often.

    We only throw verbal jabs. I think if someone brought even a fake weapon in here a death would result. It's iffy just allowing us to have scissors around here.

    Some people where I work would take the warfare much too seriously...I suppose it's a good thing one of my coworkers is a former Army medic...

    I bought my dad a nerf sniper rifle for christmas once... he was big on the office welfare... he had a foam brick he would throw at people... unfortunately, office warfare gets us into trouble here... the right person flings so much as a rubber band over the partition when the right person is walking by, and it's like a trip to the principles office. :grumble:

    We use laser pointers at each other although I used to shoot rubber bands at people and throw foam granades. My office sucks. They're no fun at all.

    My office used to go paintballing.

    Then one of the "walk-on" players (non-company employee) sexually harassed one of our women and now we don't go paintballing anymore.

    And our boss used to tune up his paintball gun to a point where it cut through t-shirts and drew blood. He's an *kitten*.
