I've had a few bosses that I'd thought about doing something along these lines.

Our brand new boss is smart enough to know not to leave his junk around where we operate our equipment.
He stepped on a lot of toes and pulled a lot of vacuum to get where he is.

Being an operator, I have done some things. This is not 1 of my tricks but things like this. No harm just a little inconvenient when it's time to go home.
We had 6 18" wide trenches opened across a street once and road closed signs detours the whole thing. I was last to come out of the barricades at lunch time and this big shot in a Mercedes wanted to pass. I told him he couldn't and he insisted I was an uneducated numbskull and almost ran over me going ahead. So, I stretched that 710 John Deere across the road hoping to find him when I got back from lunch. LOL don't know how he got past all the trenches but I bet that first trench he hit at about 40 mph made me a lot smarter :<0) I never did see the guy again but I know he will listen to road workers from now on no matter how dumb they look.Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.
