As an autist i would realize its a prank but not how to respond to it.
I would probably just do the job in a super serious fashion as a way to prank back. Its not the first time where people react to me in a “omg it was just a joke” because i committed to their bit to hard. But that is what i find funny.
Always commit to it, especially if the prank is getting you to find something.
You can either stay and work, or take the day walking around going to all the shops to buy a long weight, tartan paint, left handed screwdriver or spirit level bubbles.
That’s an awesome prank

Tartan (plaid) paint was requested by a coworker on one jobsite.
The other commonly requested item for new hires was a bucket of steam.
Don’t forget to get some blinker fluid!
Do you ever try to use language models for stuff like this?
Three of them were OK from Claude 3.5 Sonnet.
Oh yeah, and i really miss sonet.
I am on a 1 month break back to chatgpt and honestly it sucks, claude is way better.
The pattern/struggle predates llm though and I don’t have one to use in the middle of live interaction.
