Pay Raise On April Fool's Day

I was told today that I got a small pay raise.  I thought it was a joke, since it's April 1st.  But nope, not the case, I really did get a raise.

I told one of our nurses at work that all the nurses are in trouble because we'd discovered that somebody's been giving "expired" medication to our residents.  A big meeting was planned for later on in the day, and the riot act was going to be read to the nurses.  She believed me and panicked.  And then I said the terrifying words: "Happy April Fool's".
