In The Office
Lesson One
An eagle was sitting on a
tree resting, doing nothing. A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked
him, "Can I also sit like you and do nothing?"
The eagle answered: "Sure,
why not."
So, the rabbit sat on the
ground below the eagle, and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared,
jumped on the rabbit and ate it.
Management Lesson - To be
sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
Lesson Two
A turkey was chatting with a
bull. "I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree," sighed
the turkey, "but I haven't got the energy."
"Well, why don't you
nibble on some of my droppings?" replied the bull. "They're packed with
nutrients."
The turkey pecked at a lump
of dung, found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest
branch of the tree. The next day, after eating some more dung, he
reached the second branch. Finally after a fourth night, he was proudly
perched at the top of the tree. Soon, he was spotted by a farmer, who
shot the turkey out of the tree.
Management Lesson - Bullshit
might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.
Lessons Three -
Five
A little bird was flying
south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the
ground in a large field. While it was lying there, a cow came by and
dropped some dung on it. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of
cow dung, it began to realize how warm it was. The dung was actually
thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to
sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to
investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the
pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.
Management Lessons - (1) Not
everyone who shits on you is your enemy.
(2) Not everyone who gets you
out of shit is your friend.
(3) And when you're in deep
shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!

It's the team that matters.
Where would The Beatles be without Ringo. If John got Yoko to play
drums the history of music would be completely different.
What does a squirrel do in the summer? It
buries nuts. Why? Cos then in winter time he's got something to eat and
he won't die. So, collecting nuts in the summer is worthwhile work.
Every task you do at work think, would a squirrel do that? Think
squirrels. Think nuts.
When confronted by a difficult problem,
you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question, "How would
the Lone Ranger handle this?"
Show me a good loser and I'll show you a
LOSER!
If you can keep your head when all around
you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the
seriousness of the situation.
You don't have to be mad to work here, in
fact we ask you to complete a medical questionnaire to ensure that you
are not.
If you treat the people around you with
love and respect, they will never guess that you're trying to get them
sacked.
If at first you don't succeed, remove all
evidence you ever tried. You have to be 100% behind someone, before you
can stab them in the back.
If work was so good, the rich would have
kept more of it for themselves.
Those of you who think you know everything
are annoying to those of us who do.
If your boss is getting you down, look at
him through the prongs of a fork and imagine him in jail.
There's no 'I' in 'team'. But then there's
no 'I' in 'useless smug colleague', either. And there's four in
'platitude-quoting idiot'. Go figure. There may be no 'I' in team, but
there's a 'ME' if you look hard enough.
Process and Procedure are the last hiding
place of people without the wit and wisdom to do their job properly.
Accept that some days you are the pigeon,
and some days you are the statue Know your limitations and be content
with them. Too much ambition results in promotion to a job you can't
do.
Make good use of your cylindrical filing
unit, the one you mainly keep under your desk.
Remember that age and treachery will
always triumph over youth and ability.
Never do today that which will become
someone else's responsibility tomorrow.
Quitters never win, winners never quit.
But those who never win and never quit are idiots.
If you're gonna be late, then be late and
not just 2 minutes - make it an hour and enjoy your breakfast.
Remember the 3 golden rules:
1. It was like that when I got here.
2. I didn't do it.
3. (To your Boss) I like your style.
The office is like an army, and I'm the
field general. You're my foot soldiers and customer quality is the WAR
!!!
Set out to leave the first vapour trail in
the blue-sky scenario.
Statistics are like a lamp-post to a
drunken man - more for leaning on than illumination.
A problem shared is a problem halved, so
is your problem really yours or just half of someone else's?
Is your work done? Are all pigs fed,
watered and ready to fly?....
You don't have to be mad to work here, but
you do have to be on time, well presented, a team player, customer
service focused and sober!!
I thought I could see the light at the end
of the tunnel, but it was just some b*stard with a torch, bringing me
more work.
Avoid employing unlucky people - throw
half of the pile of CVs in the bin without reading them.
Put the key of despair into the lock of
apathy. Turn the knob of mediocrity slowly and open the gates of
despondency - welcome to a day in the average office.

The Best Patients Five surgeons are
discussing who makes the best patients to operate on.
The first surgeon says, "I like to see
accountants on my operating table, because when you open them up,
everything inside is numbered."
The second responds, "Yeah, but you should
try electricians! Everything inside them is color coded."
The third surgeon says, "No, I really
think librarians are the best; everything inside them is in
alphabetical order."
The fourth surgeon chimes in: "You know, I
like construction workers...those guys always understand when you have
a few parts left over at the end, and when the job takes longer than
you said it would."
But the fifth surgeon shut them all up
when he observed: "You're all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to
operate on. There's no guts, no heart, and no spine, and the head and
ass are interchangeable."

Mensa Test
Exercise of the brain is as important as exercise of the muscles. As we
grow older, it's important that we keep mentally alert. The saying: "If
you don't use it, you will lose it" also applies to the brain, so...
Below is a very private way to gauge your
loss or non-loss of intelligence. So take the following test presented
here and determine if you are losing it or still a MENSA candidate.
Ok, relax... clear your mind, and begin.

Q: What do you put in a toaster?
*
*
*
*
A: The answer is bread. If you said
"toast," then give up now and go do something else before you hurt
yourself. If you said "bread", go to the next question.
*
Q: Say "silk" five times. Now, spell
"silk." What do cows drink?
*
*
*
*
A: Cows drink water. If you said "milk",
please do not attempt the next question. Your brain is obviously
overstressed and may even overheat. It may be that you need to content
yourself with reading something more appropriate such as "Children's
World." If you said "water", then proceed to the next question.

Q: If a red house is made with red bricks,
a blue house is made with blue bricks, a pink house is made with pink
bricks, a black house is made with black bricks, what is a greenhouse
made with?
*
*
*
*
A: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you
said "green bricks," what the heck are you still doing here reading
these questions??? Dang!!... If you said "glass", then go on to the
next question.

Q: Twenty years ago, a plane is flying at
20,000 feet over Germany. If you will recall, Germany at the time was
politically divided into West Germany and East Germany. Anyway, during
the flight, TWO of the the engines fail. The pilot, realizing that the
last remaining engine is also failing, decides on a crash landing
procedure. Unfortunately, the engine fails before he has time and the
plane crashes smack in the middle of "no-man's-land" between East
Germany and West Germany. Where would you bury the survivors - East
Germany or West Germany or in "no-man's-land?"
*
*
*
*
A: You don't, of course, bury the
survivors. If you said ANYTHING else, you are a real dunce and you must
NEVER try to rescue anyone from a plane crash. Your efforts would not
be appreciated... If you said, "Don't bury the survivors" then proceed
to the next question.
*
*
*
Q: If the hour hand on a clock moves
1/60th of a degree every minute, then how many degrees will the hour
hand move in one hour?
*
*
*
*
A: One degree. If you said "360 degrees"
or anything else other than "one degree", you are to be congratulated
on getting this far, but you are obviously out of your league. Turn
your pencil in and exit the room. Everyone else proceed to the final
question.
*
*
*
Q: Without using a calculator - You are
driving a bus from London to Milford Haven in Wales. In London, 17
people get on the bus. In Reading, six people get off the bus and nine
people get on. In Swindon, two people get off and four get on. In
Cardiff, 11 people geto off and 16 people get on. In Swansea, three
people get off and five people get on. In Carmathen, six people get off
and three get on. You then arrive at Milford Haven. What was the name
of the bus driver?
*
*
*
*
*
*
A: Oh,
for Heaven's sake... It was you!

Over the weekend, I
left Mumbai on Western Express Highway heading towards Pune, when I
decided to stop at a comfort station. The first toilet was occupied, so
I went into the second one. I was no sooner seated than I heard a voice
from the next toilet: "Hi, how are you doing?" Well, I am not the type
to chat with strangers in highway comfort stations, and I really don't
know quite what possessed me, but anyway, I answered, a little
embarrassed: "Not bad." And the stranger said: "And, what are you up
to?" Talk about your dumb questions! I was really beginning to think
this was too weird! So I said: "Well, just like you I am driving to
Pune?" Then, I heard the stranger, all upset, say: "Look, I'll call you
right back, there is some idiot in the next toilet answering all the
questions I am asking you. Bye!"

These are entries to a competition asking for a
rhyme with the
most romantic first line but least romantic second
line:
Love may be beautiful, Love may be bliss
but I only slept with you, because I was pissed
I thought that I could love no other
Until, that is, I met your brother
Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you.
But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead, the sugar bowl's
empty and so is your head.
Of loving beauty you float with grace
If only you could hide your face
Kind, intelligent, loving and hot
This describes everything you are not
I want to feel your sweet embrace
But don't take that paper bag off of your face
I love your smile, your face, and your eyes-
Damn, I'm good at telling lies!
My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:
Marrying you screwed up the rest of my life
I see your face when I am dreaming
That's why I always wake up screaming
My love you take my breath away
What have you stepped in to smell this way
My feelings for you no words can tell
Except for maybe "go to hell"
What inspired this amorous rhyme?
Two parts vodka, one part lime

A married couple is driving along a
highway doing sixty mph, the wife behind the wheel. Her husband
suddenly looks over at her and says, "Honey, I know we've been married
for twenty years, but I want a divorce." The wife says nothing but
slowly increases speed to seventy mph. He then says, "I don't want you
to try to talk me out of it, because I've been having an affair with
your best friend, and she's a better lover than you are." Again the
wife stays quiet but speeds up as her anger increases. "I want the
house," he insists, pressing his luck. Again the wife speeds up, to
eighty mph. He says, "I want the car, too," but she just drives faster
and faster. By now she's up to ninety mph. "All right," he says, "I
want the bank accounts, and all the credit cards, too." The wife slowly
starts to veer toward a bridge overpass piling. This makes him a bit
nervous, so he says, "Isn't there anything you want?" The wife says,
"No, I've got everything I need." "Oh, really," he says, "so what have
you got?" Right before they slam into the wall at a hundred mph, the
wife smiles and says, "The airbag."

A 5-STAR STUPIDITY AWARD WINNER!
When a man attempted to
siphon gasoline from a motor home parked on a Seattle street, he got
much more than he bargained for. Police arrived at the scene to find a
very sick man curled up next to a motor home near spilled sewage. A
police spokesman said that the man admitted to trying to steal gasoline
and plugged his siphon hose into the motor home's sewage tank by
mistake. The owner of the vehicle declined to press charges, saying
that it was the best laugh he'd ever had.

1. You spend the first two

2. Grandchildren are God's reward

3. Children seldom misquote you. In
fact, they usually repeat word for word what you shouldn't have
said.
4. The main purpose of holding
children's parties is to remind yourself that there are children more
awful than your own.
ADVICE FOR THE DAY! Be nice to your

Which part of the body?....
6th grade science teacher, Mrs. Parks,
asked her class, "Which human body part increases to ten times
its size when stimulated?"
No one answered until little Mary stood
up, angry, and said, "You should not be asking sixth-graders a
question like that! I'm going to tell my parents, and they will
go and tell the principal, who will then fire you!" With a sneer
on her face, she then sat back down.
Mrs. Parks ignored her and asked the
question again, "Which body part increases to 10 times its size
when stimulated?"
Little Mary's mouth fell open; then she
said to those around her, "Boy, is she going to get in big
trouble!"
The teacher continued to ignore her and
said to the class, anybody?"
Finally, Billy stood up, looked around
nervously, and said, "The body part that increases 10 times its
size when stimulated is the pupil of the eye."
Mrs. Parks said, "Very good, Billy,"
then turned to Mary and continued, "As for you, young lady,
I have three things to say:
One, you have a dirty mind.
Two, you didn't read your homework.
Three, one day you are going to be
very, very disappointed."
