It’s quite human. It’s very simple. I follow the Golden Rule. Treat others the way I want to be treated. If I were somehow responsible for a crappy job, I would appreciate being told this responsibly instead of having a prank played back on me, thus this is the course of action I would take if the roles were switched. I take this course of action because in general I have respect for people and I assume that these events do not occur purposely by the people doing them. If this is in fact the case, I then choose to not associate with these people.
Life is too short for playing pranks and having a mean streak. You get nothing out of being mean, other than making other people dislike you. If that’s what you enjoy, well then have fun, but that’s certainly something I don’t enjoy at all.
