 | Arrive at a meeting late, say you're sorry, but you didn't have time for
lunch, and you're going to be nibbling during the meeting. During the
meeting eat 5 entire raw potatoes.| Insist that your e-mail address be: "zena_goddess_of_fire@companyname.com" | Every time someone asks you to do something, ask them to sign a waiver. | Every time someone asks you to do something, ask them if they want fries
with that. | Send email to yourself engaging yourself in an intelligent debate about
the direction of one of your company's products. Forward the mail to a
coworker and ask her to settle the disagreement. | Find out where your boss shops and buy exactly the same outfits. Always
wear them one day after your boss does. (This is especially effective if
your boss is a different gender than you are.) | Make up nicknames for all your coworkers and refer to them only by these
names at staff meetings. "That's a good point Sparky." "No
I'm sorry I'm going to have to disagree with you there, Chachi." | Suggest that beer be put in the soda machine. | Schedule meetings for 4:14 PM. | Encourage your colleagues to join you in a little synchronized chair
dancing. | Send email to the rest of the company telling them what you're doing. For
example "If anyone needs me I'll be in the bathroom." (Info.
Systems already does this!) | No matter what anyone asks you, reply "Okay." | Put your garbage can on your desk. Label it "IN." | Plant a hedge around your cubicle. | Build models of the Seven Wonders of the World using empty soda cans. | When in conversation, no matter where you are in the office, mutter,
"I think my phone is ringing" and leave. Go get a coffee. | Determine how many cups of coffee is "too many." | Develop an unnatural fear of staplers. | Compose all your e-mail in rhyming couplets. | Install a set of buttons and lights in the arm of your chair. Talk into
your Daytimer. | Bring in dishes that you tried to cook but didn't turn out quite right as
special treats for your co-workers. | While sitting at your desk, soak your fingers in "Palmolive". | Put up mosquito netting around your cubicle. | Decorate your office with pictures of Cindy Brady and Danny Partridge. Try
to pass them off as your children. | Send e-mail messages saying free pizza, free donuts etc... in the
lunchroom, when people complain that there was none... Just lean back, pat
your stomach, and say, "Oh you've got to be faster than that." See
how long it takes until the last person stops believing you. Then start
planting pizzas. | Put decaf in the coffeemaker for 3 weeks. Once everyone has gotten over
their caffeine addictions, switch to espresso. | |
