The CEO of Australian firm Mills Oakley clearly had too much time on his hands last week, as he sent an April Fools email to the firm's staff about a fictional merger.

  Mills Oakley staff react

Mills Oakley did not respond to RollOnFriday's request for comment. Presumably because they were too busy planning next year's LMAO April Fools. How about one where a disgruntled ex-partner airs the firm's dirty laundry in front of all his clients? Oh no, wait. That already happened.

Shooty* here. This reminds me of the Epic Keoghs April Fool email we had one year, stating that all the coffee machines would now be operated by our door passes, and we would be restricted to 6 cups a day, and only 2 teaspoons of sugar, to help our health. Everyone thought "Yeah, that sounds about right", as it fit with the company culture of making everyone as miserable as possible. We were positively rolling in the aisles when the second email came around saying "that was a joke! Ha ha ha, right?". Other policies, like making non-Islamic staff comply with Ramadan eating and drinking requirements were not a joke.

Nice work John...glad to see Aussies topping the legal humour fest. Is it just me or have more public instances been released regarding April Fools activities this year? Last resort for some office fun in our PC-obsessed world?
