Well, it didn't happen in the middle of the night, so nobody got woken up in the middle of the night.

You need more joy in your life if you see this as an asshole move.

11:15PM is not the middle of the night? I know I'm old and all, but that's not exactly the middle of the work day either.

Everybody seems to think I'm joyless because I think people need to be more considerate of the negative externalities of fucking pranks. No wonder the world is going to shit.

If I were called at 11:15pm to investigate this I'd be pretty excited. Even if I was asleep. In fact I would be at any time. This is the kind of workplace thing you still talk about 30 years later.

The time that immediately comes to my mind when I think "middle of the night" is 3am.
