It comes on when they turn on the faucet. My boss still hasn't figured out who rigged it up. I am getting ready for april fools. Is this joke over the line? Its in an office environment.

It happened a few times before anyone realized what was going on. Women would scream and run out of the bathroom holding their hands to their face very frantically. I don't think I am breaking a law since there is no camera and the spray works as the person turns on the faucet and its nothing I do from remotely from another room.

First off, assault is assault even if done by remote or trigger. What you have set up, while similar to an automated security system by nature, it has been set up with malicious intent hich is what classifies it as assault. Second, you're lucky with only assault at the moment. There are people who are deadly allergic to the chemicals used in those sprays and can go into anaphylactic shock. Should that happen and the victim of your "prank" die, you'll be looking at homicide charges.
In any case, yes, it's over the line and I would urge you to take it down. As a rule of thumb for the future, if anyone cries, it's over the line.

I don't think it's a joke. Not only is it over the line, it is endangerment and contributes to a hostile work environment.
For example, if anyone's eyes are injured with the pepper spray, they may sue your company -- it's worker's compensation when the injury is at work.
When you are found out, you may be a defendant in a civil law suit to recover any medical expenses from the victims.
Please disconnect this dangerous stunt before anyone gets hurt.

I hope you are joking about this but if you aren't most work places now have cameras catching your images that you don't even know about in places you can't see. Also, if somebody gets hurt, the police will get involved. Then again someone who would do something like this doesn't strike me as the intelligent type. You sound like the type that enjoys the show Jackass but takes it too far.
Hey, why don't you let someone spray pepper spray in YOUR face, and see if you laugh?

Wow!
where did you get this idea? I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end, though!
Surely, the pepper spray supply must have exhausted by now. How do you replenish it?
I hope you used gloves and a mask. If you left fingerprints, be afraid. Be very afraid! ;-)

Be careful because this is not a joke it can be illegal. If you get caught which you will if you continue, be prepared to be looking for another job.

It's a federal offense, so if that's over the line for you, yeah, over the line.

Yes. You are laying yourself open to charges of assault. I would dismantle it at once and hope no one finds out.
