If you worked at a job that you like, but the people are immature and drive you crazy by pulling stupid little pranks and that the management staff really does little about???

Do what you do...stop worrying about what everyone else is doing...if management doesn't care, why should you?

I find that ignoring them gets the point across, they will eventually get the message

Would it be better to work someplace with people that had no sense of humour at all? A little work sillyness does help lighten the mood fo working

Maybe you should get revenge and prank them back. Earn your respect, son.

Figure out a way to make their lives miserable

I had a problem in the beginning at my job--it's "men's work", and some of the guys resented me a little. BUT I also have about 1800 degrees coming out of the end of my brazing tip, so scaring or touching me is really stupid. I immediately turn towards the source, fire first. A couple of scorches, laugh in their face, and turn back to business. After a month or so they gave it up. Back 'em down, they'll get bored (or scared) and get off your back.
