The Escalation of Workplace Pranks: My Tale of 'Long Live Paint'
Learn how mundane office pranks involving paint cans escalated into a real-life bomb threat investigation involving local police and federal agencies. This is the true story of comedic escalation gone wrong during Breuer's time working at Sears.
Short Summary
- Prank calls involving impersonating Muammar Gaddafi resulted in one joke escalating to a major evacuation scare.
- A new hardware associate, frustrated by Breuer’s behavior and poor product advice, was the target of the revenge plot.
- The resulting threat caused the temporary evacuation of Sears and almost forced the evacuation of the entire Greenacres Mall.
- Local police shown surprising leniency, offering PBA cards, before the case moved to federal jurisdiction.
- Breuer received a short suspension but ultimately kept his job after a direct appeal to the District Manager.
This story recounts Jim Breuer's time working in a Sears paint department, detailing internal pranks that culminated in a severe bomb threat called in against a co-worker. The ensuing chaos involved local police, the firing chief, and federal agents before his manager issued a suspension instead of termination.

This is my favorite Jim Breuer bit. It literally makes me laugh, every time I hear it. Thanks Jim, for all you do.
Man I could imagine growing up with Jim as friends, always a good time just laughing and joking around, and never a dull moment. Those are my favorite type of people.
I've heard Jim tell this story multiple times. Always funny. Imagine working with him at Sears or anywhere.
The fact that he had to retell his story MULTIPLE times to several people, I think they each just wanted to have their own comedy show by that point. I’m pretty sure the supervisors already heard about it from underlings but they said “No, you gotta hear HIM tell it, it’s hilarious, you’ll love it!” and then they had to act all serious like they had no clue what he was about to tell them 😂
This popped up in my feed and despite the fact that I've heard this story numerous times, I clicked on it anyway just so I could hit the thumbs up. LOVE YOU JIM!
I love the long live paint bit
My favorite Breure bit of all time. I did something a little like this many years ago except no evacuations and no Fed`s. Working in a market in Florida. We had been having issues with the health department at the time. I was in pizza/cheese section getting some things. I noticed a lady coming in with a clipboard and a briefcase. I said, "holy crap that's the health department you better get this place cleaned up"(it wasn`t and I knew it).... then I went back to work. A few minutes later all managers were called to the conference room. A short time later all the managers were scrubbing, cleaning and polishing their departments. Near the end of my shift the owner came to my department looking straight at me and obviously angry, "HEY COME HERE THIS COULD ONLY HAVE BEEN YOU!" I quietly said, "you`re right it was me. But the way I see it you have 2 choices. Either fire me or give me a raise for getting this place so quickly". He relaxed then snickered and laughed and said "DON`T EVER PULL THAT SHIT AGAIN."
“Long live PAINT!”
@16:24 I thought everyone walking by would yell, "LONG LIVE PAINT!" ...😂😂
🤣 That will never get old. Funny as shit!
