YouTube Video - Pranking Goldman Sachs

I have a small YouTube channel that I post comedy videos on.

I have an idea for a video where I find an MD's phone number who works at Goldman Sachs. Then I call him and tell him that I'm not going to make it in to work today. I tell him that I work in operations and I just started this week so I didn't have anyone else's phone number but I've seen him around the office and he seems chill so I figure he'll cover for me. And the resaon I'm not going to make it is because I have to return some videotapes. If he asks, my name is Roger Staubach. I title the video "Calling in Sick for Work at The Goldman Sachs"

Would doing this get me blackballed?
