The idea just popped into my head since it’s April Fools’ -- I thought it might lighten the mood at work. I was thinking of sending out a fake memo listing employees who are getting terminated, but obviously as a joke.
But now I’m wondering… Is this actually illegal or just really unethical? What do you guys think - should I go for it, or is this one of those stupid ideas I should just drop?
(P.S. If this isn’t the right place to ask, mods, feel free to move it!)

Concerning your plan for the April Fool's Day, I think it's better you just do it with your best of friends at your work place. People take things differently and if you do it generally to all employees that are not your cool friends, some of them might not take it likely with you for any emotional problem they may face with such news.
